FAQPage Schema
How do I kill stale Kawa and simplex-chat processes left over after debugging?▼

To kill stale Kawa and simplex-chat processes, run the npm run clean script from the flux/kawa project directory. This terminates lingering processes and restores a clean state for debugging or smoke tests.

Why does Kawa fail to start with leftover temp directories after running tests?▼

Kawa may fail to start due to leftover temporary directories in /tmp causing conflicts. Running an npm cleanup script removes these test artifacts and prevents flaky starts.

Can I use npm scripts to manage process cleanup and restart Kawa in one workflow?▼

Yes, you can run npm run clean to terminate processes and remove temp directories, then immediately execute npm run start:kawa to reliably restart the application in a clean state.

What is the best way to purge test artifacts and reset the Kawa environment?▼

The best way to purge test artifacts and reset Kawa is running the npm clean script, which kills simplex-chat processes and deletes listed /tmp directories to ensure a stable startup environment.

What should I do when Kawa process cleanup doesn't fix startup failures?▼

If Kawa startup failures persist after process cleanup, verify that all simplex-chat processes are terminated and all specified /tmp test artifact directories are fully removed before attempting to restart.
