Extract subprocess execution and process contracts into @orca/process-host with explicit public entry points, independent checks, and one Node 18 compatible CommonJS runtime. Migrate application consumers and integrate package builds, dependency selection, import enforcement, and runtime resource staging.
Preserve daemon startup ownership and profile isolation, and qualify development rebuild recovery and concurrent output publication. Remove unnecessary aliases, test forwarding exports, and a duplicate output scan.
Validation: full typechecks, changed-code quality, package and artifact checks, native Windows builds/types plus 306 runtime tests, and independent native reviews.
Matched full E2E controls on original main and unchanged reviewed head both pass all 17 applicable tests (nine skips). Earlier intermittent E2E failures are documented in the PR; no assertions were weakened. The final combined-tree audit preserves both branches with no import-boundary violations.
* fix(windows): ship the process-table addon to the relocated daemon host
The Windows terminal daemon runs from a copy of the app under
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Orca\daemon-host\<version>. That copy took node-pty but not
@vscode/windows-process-tree, so the daemon's bare require of the addon found
nothing and every process-table read (foreground tracking, descendant sweeps)
fell back to a powershell.exe Get-CimInstance scan (#16905).
- Copy the addon's runtime files (package.json, lib/, the .node binary) into
the host; the ~25MB of gyp intermediates beside them are filtered out.
- Treat a host missing those files as unmaterialized, so hosts built before
this are rebuilt, and skip relocation if the install itself lacks them.
- Log the daemon's native/CIM capability at startup and warn once when the
process table falls back to CIM.
Revives #19525 on current main.
