Inline comments:
In `@app/src-tauri/src/core_process.rs`:
- Around line 673-676: The PortOwner struct currently only stores pid and name,
which leaves it vulnerable to PID reuse if a process exits before the user
confirms termination. Add a stable process identity field to the PortOwner
struct (such as process creation time or start tick) that is captured at
discovery time, then update the validate_kill_target function to verify that
this stable identifier matches the current process alongside the PID before
allowing the TERM/force-kill operation to proceed.
- Around line 1074-1082: In the validate_kill_target function where
current_owner is being matched, add a check to reject Windows protected PIDs (0
and 4) before validating against expected_pid. Insert a new match arm that
catches when the pid is Some(0) or Some(4) and returns an Err indicating these
are protected system PIDs that cannot be terminated. This guard should be placed
before the existing conditions that check if pid matches expected_pid or
self_pid, ensuring protected PIDs are refused at validation time rather than
allowing the process to proceed to the actual kill attempt.
In `@app/src/components/BootCheckGate/BootCheckGate.tsx`:
- Around line 856-862: The eslint-disable-next-line comment currently sits above
the closing brace of the useCallback hook instead of directly above the
dependency array, causing the lint suppression to not apply. Move the
eslint-disable-next-line comment from its current position (line 859, above the
closing brace) to directly precede the dependency array on line 861 that
contains [actionBusy, coreMode, runCheck]. This ensures the eslint suppression
properly silences the warning about the missing `t` variable in the dependency
array.
In `@app/src/lib/bootCheck/index.ts`:
- Around line 47-52: The RecoveryOutcome type definition should be converted
from a type to an interface following TypeScript conventions, and the optional
fields foreign_owner and new_port should be modeled as explicitly nullable
(using | null) rather than optional properties to properly align with the Rust
backend serialization which returns explicit null values for None. Additionally,
at line 248 where RecoveryOutcome is being mapped to a response object with
foreignOwner property, ensure proper null normalization is applied so that
explicit null values from the backend are correctly handled rather than left as
undefined.

Review — fix(tauri): identify foreign process on core port + consent-gated force-quit (#3331)
Solid, well-structured PR. The design is genuinely careful: ownership is re-validated immediately before the kill (closing the recover→consent window), the self-pid and owner-change cases are refused, Windows guards kernel pids 0/4 and classifies taskkill exit codes, the parsers are pure and unit-tested, and the frontend correctly upgrades "Fix Automatically" into a consent-gated, red-styled "Force-quit {name}" button with full i18n parity across all 15 locales. Consent gating is sound — the backend only ever kills whatever currently holds the core port, so a buggy/forged frontend pid can't widen the blast radius.
I'm requesting changes on one hardening item on the kill path plus a couple of smaller notes. None are demonstrably exploitable today, but this is a force-kill feature so the defense-in-depth gap is worth closing before merge.
Blocking-ish (hardening on a kill path)
core_process.rs:1082(validate_kill_target) — Unix kill path lacks the protected-pid guard the Windows path has. Windows refuses pids 0/4 in bothfind_pid_on_port(parser) andkill_pid_*; the Unix side has no equivalent andkill(0, sig)broadcasts to the caller's entire process group (OpenHuman + its CEF children). Not known to be reachable vialsof -t -sTCP:LISTEN, but the asymmetry on a force-kill path should be closed (refusepid <= 1). See inline.
Non-blocking
core_process.rs:780— escalation to SIGKILL is gated by a barestill == Some(pid), notvalidate_kill_target. Leaves a narrow pid-reuse window (same pid number rebinding the port within 500ms) that the PR's "PID-reuse safe" claim doesn't actually cover. See inline.core_process.rs:774— SIGTERM result is double-discarded (let _ = spawn_blocking(...).await), unlike the force-kill branch which surfaces panics. Alog::debug!on TERM error would help diagnosis. See inline.- Test coverage: the
force_quit_port_ownerorchestration itself (TERM → re-validate → KILL escalation → restart, and theensure_running-fails message) has no Rust test — only the purevalidate_kill_target/parsers are covered. Understandable given it spawns real processes, but worth a note. Frontend Vitest coverage is good. - Minor UX: when
process_namefails,namefalls back toformat!("PID {pid}"), so the owner string renders as "PID 4242 (PID 4242) is using the network port…" and the button reads "Force-quit PID 4242". Functional, slightly awkward.
Nothing here is a correctness blocker for the happy path; the request-changes is to get the Unix-side guard symmetric with Windows on a privileged kill path. Thanks for the thorough tests and i18n work.
…ce-quit (tinyhumansai#3331) When port 7788 is held by a non-OpenHuman process (or a stale instance the automatic reap can't terminate), startup recovery did nothing and the user was stuck on a generic "couldn't start" screen with no way to act. Recovery now identifies the owning process (pid + name), surfaces it in the boot-check screen, and offers an explicit, consent-gated "Force-quit <name>" button that re-validates port ownership immediately before terminating and refuses protected/self pids. - core_process: PortOwner + RecoveryOutcome.foreign_owner; identify_port_owner, process_name (tasklist/ps, pure parsers), validate_kill_target, force_quit_port_owner (term -> revalidate -> kill -> restart). - lib: force_quit_port_owner Tauri command. - BootCheckGate + bootCheck orchestrator + service: surface the owner and wire the consent-gated force-quit; re-run the boot check on success. - i18n: new keys translated across all locales. Closes tinyhumansai#3331

PR #3946 — identify foreign process on core port + consent-gated force-quit (#3331)
Walkthrough
When port 7788 is held by a foreign (non-OpenHuman) process, the old recover_port_conflict only reaped stale OpenHuman pids and otherwise dead-ended on a generic "couldn't start" screen. This PR identifies the owning process (pid + name), surfaces it in the boot-check UI, and offers an explicit, consent-gated force-quit that re-validates port ownership immediately before each signal. Well-structured, well-tested, and the kill path is genuinely careful.
Necessity check
- Problem real? Yes — issue #3331 (Windows 11), maintainer-confirmed gap: foreign port owner not handled.
- Right size? Yes — ~700 LOC but ~70% is i18n (13 locales) + tests; core logic is compact.
- Right approach? Yes. Not a "kill-the-process band-aid" — it's a consent-gated fix for a real recovery gap, with PID-reuse re-validation. RCA bucket: real defect (missing recovery branch), not a suppression.
- Recommendation: Ship.
Lifecycle / kill-path gate (the central risk)
This is a "force-quit a foreign process" PR, so the kill path got the most scrutiny:
- Consent-gated — the only pid ever killed is the one surfaced to the user and clicked (
onForceQuit(foreignOwner.pid)→force_quit_port_owner(pid)). No auto-kill. - Correct identification before kill —
validate_kill_targetrequires the currentfind_pid_on_portowner to equal the consented pid before both TERM and KILL (escalation re-runsvalidate_kill_target, not a bare== Some(pid)). Refuses self-pid,pid <= 1,pid == 4. The Unixlsof -iTCP:<port>selector ANDs protocol+port (the earlier-iTCP -i:<port>OR-match bug was fixed in 80a36cc). Windowsparse_netstat_pidmatchesLISTENING+ exact:portsuffix and skips protected pids. So only the process currently bound and LISTENing on the exact consented port is ever signalled. - Cross-platform — Unix
lsof/ps/SIGTERM→SIGKILL; Windowsnetstat/tasklist/taskkillwith protected-pid guards mirrored inprocess_kill.

Minor / Refactor
1. app/src-tauri/src/core_process.rs — residual TOCTOU on the final kill (low)
The kill is "PID-reuse safe" for the decision (re-validation gates each signal), but there is still an irreducible sub-millisecond window between the last find_pid_on_port and the actual taskkill/SIGKILL syscall where the pid could be reused. This is inherent to PID-based termination and well-mitigated by re-validating on port ownership (a reused pid would also have to re-bind the exact port + LISTEN). No change required — calling it out as a known limit. Optional hardening: capture process start-time in PortOwner and compare it in validate_kill_target for a stable identity.
// optional, not required for this PR:
pub struct PortOwner { pub pid: u32, pub name: String, pub start_time: Option<u64> }
// validate_kill_target also asserts start_time matches before signallingNitpicks (0)

- 3-way verify: issue #3331's three asks (identify owner on Windows, consent-gated termination + guidance, name the owner in the message) are all delivered — no over/under-claim.

Summary
Problem
recover_port_conflictonly reaped stale OpenHuman processes. When a non-OpenHuman process held the port (or a stale instance couldn't be terminated on Windows),ensure_runningreturnedErr, "Fix Automatically" and "Try again" did nothing, and the user was stuck on a generic "Couldn't Start the App Engine" with no idea what was wrong or how to act.
