A claude-code-keeper process group sits beside the existing Bash group with no callers outside its own code.

What

On Linux and WSL, alongside the existing claude-code-bash process group used to contain tool processes, there is now a sibling claude-code-keeper group with helpers to create it, move a process into it and offer it when spawning. Nothing outside the process-group code itself calls any of them.

Details
  • Moving a process logs a line of the form tool cgroup: keeper pid <pid> moved to <path>.
  • There is no flag or setting involved; the functions are simply uncalled, and the name appears nowhere else in the build.
Evidence

claude-code-keeper

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
