Key Features

Cross-Platform Wrapper Scripts for Orphan Process Cleanup

Eliminates SQLite "database is locked" errors caused by orphaned processes when Claude Desktop/Code crashes.

• 🧹 Automatic Orphan Detection - Identifies orphaned MCP memory processes after crashes
  • Unix: Detects processes adopted by init/launchd (ppid == 1)
  • Windows: Detects processes whose parent no longer exists
• 🛡️ Database Lock Prevention - Cleans up orphaned processes before starting new server instance
• 🌐 Cross-Platform Wrappers
  • Python: memory_wrapper_cleanup.py (universal, recommended)
  • Bash: memory_wrapper_cleanup.sh (macOS/Linux native)
  • PowerShell: memory_wrapper_cleanup.ps1 (Windows native)
• 🔒 Safe Cleanup - Only terminates actual orphans, preserves active sessions
• 📚 Comprehensive Documentation - README_CLEANUP_WRAPPER.md with installation guide, troubleshooting, and technical details
• 🔧 22 Unit Tests - Full test coverage with platform-specific validation

Security Enhancements

• Removed `shell=True` from subprocess calls (Bandit B602/B604)

• Tests: 22 passed, 2 skipped (Windows-specific tests on macOS)
