## When to use this skill
**ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions:**
- Getting process info (PID, app version) in a Tauri app
- Programmatic app restart or exit
- Graceful shutdown and cleanup
**Trigger phrases include:**
- "process", "restart app", "exit app", "shutdown", "app lifecycle", "process info"
## How to use this skill
1. **Install the process plugin**:
```bash
cargo add tauri-plugin-process
```
2. **Register the plugin** in your Tauri builder:
```rust
tauri::Builder::default()
.plugin(tauri_plugin_process::init())
```
3. **Configure capabilities** in `src-tauri/capabilities/default.json`:
```json
{ "permissions": ["process:allow-restart", "process:allow-exit"] }
```
4. **Control the process from the frontend**:
```typescript
import { exit, relaunch } from '@tauri-apps/plugin-process';
await relaunch(); // restart the app (e.g., after an update)
await exit(0); // graceful exit with code 0
```
5. **Implement graceful shutdown** by saving state before calling exit
6. **Restrict process capabilities** to only restart/exit -- avoid exposing unnecessary process data
## Outputs
- Process plugin setup with restart and exit capabilities
- Graceful shutdown pattern with state saving
- Minimal capability configuration
