Fix keep-alive crash on non-JIT apps (e.g. Roblox)#8
Merged
Conversation
Keep-alive ran the universal JIT breakpoint-handler script against every app on TXM devices. That script is meant for apps that use the brk #0xf00d JIT protocol (emulators). Against a large, multi-threaded, non-JIT app like Roblox it chases every signal the app raises — logging verbosely each iteration — which: - grows RunJSViewModel.logs (a @published array rendered in a SwiftUI List) without bound until StikDebug runs out of memory and crashes, and - mishandles the app's many threads (single-thread vCont), wedging it. Two fixes: - keepAliveScript now returns a script only for user-assigned or name-matched (known JIT) apps. Everything else is held with a plain debugger attach, which keeps the app alive in the background without interfering with its threads or signals. This restores the proven plain-hold path for apps like Roblox. - appendLog caps the log buffer (with amortized trimming) so a long-running or spinning hold script can never exhaust memory. The user can still stop such a hold via should_continue(). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01EpCxAimrBo9RA8v6BxSEXT
