processkit

Async-and-sync child-process management for Python with a kernel-backed no-orphan guarantee: every process you start — and everything it spawns — lives in a kill-on-exit container (a Windows Job Object, a Linux cgroup v2, or a POSIX process group), so no descendant ever outlives your program.

Beyond spawning a subprocess: run-and-capture, line streaming, interactive stdin, shell-free pipelines, readiness probes, timeouts & cancellation, supervision with restart/backoff, resource-limited sandboxes, and a mockable runner seam for subprocess-free tests — each in a synchronous and an asyncio-native form.

from processkit import Command

# Require success and get trimmed stdout; a failure raises a typed exception.
version = Command("python", ["--version"]).run()
print(version)

Cover

Why processkit?

subprocess and asyncio.subprocess reach (at most) the direct child. The processes it spawned — a build tool's compiler children, the real payload behind a wrapper (cmd /c …, sh -c …), a test's helper servers — survive a timeout, an exception, or a cancelled task, and keep running as orphans.

processkit spawns every child into the operating system's own containment primitive — a Job Object on Windows, a cgroup v2 on Linux (with a process-group fallback), a POSIX process group on macOS/BSD — so teardown is a kernel operation over the whole tree, not a best-effort signal to one pid:

Nothing escapes silently. Exiting a with / async with block reaps every descendant, grandchildren included. Where a mechanism has a genuine weakness (a setsid child can escape a POSIX process group), ProcessGroup.mechanism reports the active backend instead of pretending — never a silent downgrade.
Sync and async, first-class. The run-&-capture verbs, pipelines, and supervision each exist as a plain synchronous call and an a-prefixed asyncio coroutine, sharing one set of types. The inherently-streaming surfaces — live line streaming, interactive stdin, readiness probes — are asyncio-native (awaited on a started process), not duplicated as blocking calls.
Honest results. A non-zero exit is data (ProcessResult) until you ask for success; a timeout is captured in the result; a cancellation is always an error; every platform divergence raises Unsupported or is documented. Raised exceptions carry structured fields and alias the stdlib's (Timeout is a TimeoutError, ProcessNotFound a FileNotFoundError, PermissionDenied a PermissionError).
Testable. One runner seam swaps the real spawner for scripted doubles or record/replay cassettes — no subprocess in your tests.

How it compares

	whole-tree kill-on-exit	async	sync	limits / stats	streaming · pipelines · supervision
`subprocess`	—	—	✓	—	—
`asyncio.subprocess`	—	✓	—	—	—
`processkit`	✓	✓	✓	✓	✓

The first column is the differentiator: a child's descendants are contained and reaped as a unit (Job Object / cgroup v2 / process group), not just the direct child.

Stable API. The public API has been stable since 1.0 and follows Semantic Versioning: breaking changes land only in a new major version, so 1.x upgrades are backward-compatible. See CHANGELOG.md, and ROADMAP.md for how it was built.

The hard platform work — Job Object containment, cgroup v2, race-free spawn, POSIX process groups — runs in a compiled native core, so the Python layer stays a thin, typed, asyncio-native surface with context-manager teardown.

Install

pip install processkit-py   # the import name is `processkit`

Distributed as abi3 wheels for CPython 3.10+ (one wheel per OS/arch runs on every supported minor version, 3.14 included), plus a version-specific free-threaded wheel for CPython 3.14t (PEP 703 — importing the extension does not re-enable the GIL). See the PyPI project page for released versions and files; platforms without a prebuilt wheel build from source — see below.

Picking a verb

Every run starts with the same Command builder; the verb you finish with decides what you get back. Each has an a-prefixed asyncio twin (run/arun, …):

You want	Call	You get
stdout, success required	`.run()`	trimmed `str`; non-zero exit / timeout / kill → typed exception
the full outcome, exit code as data	`.output()` / `.output_bytes()`	`ProcessResult` / `BytesResult` — code, stdout, stderr, `timed_out`; never raises on a non-zero exit
just the exit code	`.exit_code()`	`int` (a timed-out / killed run raises instead of inventing `-1`)
a yes/no answer	`.probe()`	`bool` — exit 0 → `True`, 1 → `False`, anything else raises
a live handle — streaming, stdin, probes	`.start()` / `.astart()`	`RunningProcess`

The run-to-completion verbs repeat on the Runner and CliClient layers too (start / astart live on Command and Runner). Deeper: Running commands.

Quick start

from processkit import Command, ProcessGroup

# Capture output; a non-zero exit does not raise on its own.
result = Command("git", ["rev-parse", "HEAD"]).output()
print("HEAD is", result.stdout.strip(), "·", result.code)

# Require success and get trimmed stdout directly.
version = Command("python", ["--version"]).run()

# Feed stdin.
sorted_out = Command("sort").stdin_text("banana\napple\n").run()

# Share one kill-on-exit group across several children; the block exit reaps the
# whole tree, grandchildren included.
with ProcessGroup() as group:
    group.start(Command("dev-server"))
    # ... work ...
# graceful teardown on exit

The asyncio surface mirrors it with the a prefix and adds streaming:

import asyncio
from processkit import Command, ProcessGroup

async def main():
    result = await Command("git", ["rev-parse", "HEAD"]).aoutput()

    # Stream a child's stdout; the context manager reaps the tree on exit.
    async with await Command("my-build", ["--watch"]).astart() as proc:
        async for line in proc.stdout_lines():
            print(line)

    async with ProcessGroup() as group:
        await group.astart(Command("dev-server"))

asyncio.run(main())

No Python to write? python -m processkit run -- <cmd> [args...] gives a shell script or CI step the same kill-on-exit containment and resource limits from the command line, no code required:

python -m processkit run --timeout 30 --max-memory 536870912 -- pytest -x

See Command-line usage for the full flag list and exit-code contract.

Documentation

This README is the quick tour. The docs/ guide set goes deeper on every capability, with more examples and the platform fine print in one place. New here? Skim the Cookbook first — it maps "I want to …" tasks to working snippets — then read Running commands end to end:

Guide	Covers
Cookbook	Task → snippet recipes for everything below; the fastest way in
Coming from subprocess	Translating your `subprocess` / `asyncio.subprocess` code, and what containment adds
Running commands	The full `Command` builder and every consuming verb, with error semantics
Process groups	Containment, teardown, signals, suspend/resume, members, limits, stats
Streaming & interactive I/O	Line streaming, conversational stdin, readiness probes, per-run profiling
Pipelines	Shell-free `a \| b \| c`, pipefail attribution, chain timeouts
Timeouts & cancellation	Captured vs raised deadlines, Ctrl+C, asyncio cancellation
Supervision	Restart policies, backoff & jitter, stop conditions, outcomes
Testing your code	The runner seam, scripted/record-replay doubles, `CliClient`
Platform support	Mechanisms, all capability matrices, every caveat

Prefer whole programs to snippets? The examples/ directory has runnable, self-contained scripts — one per niche (no-orphan teardown, a readiness-gated server, supervision, a resource-limited sandbox). Each runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS and is exercised in CI.

A tour of the capabilities

Each section below is a taste with a pointer to its full guide.

Containing a process tree

Everything started in a ProcessGroup — and everything those processes spawn — is reaped when the block exits:

from processkit import Command, ProcessGroup

with ProcessGroup() as group:
    group.start(Command("dev-server"))
    group.start(Command("worker"))
    print(group.mechanism)        # "job_object" | "cgroup_v2" | "process_group"
    print(group.members())        # live member pids
# the whole tree, grandchildren included, is gone here

The with / async with exit (and ordinary GC) reaps the tree on every platform; surviving a hard kill of the Python process itself is a Windows-only property. Lean on the context managers, not __del__ / atexit. Deeper: Process groups · Platform support.

Sandboxing with resource limits

Bound a whole tree's memory, process count, and CPU at creation, so a runaway or untrusted child tree can't exhaust the host:

from processkit import Command, ProcessGroup

tool = (
    Command("untrusted-tool")
    .env_clear().inherit_env(["PATH"])     # locked-down environment
    .output_limit(max_bytes=8 * 1024 * 1024)
)
with ProcessGroup(max_memory=512 * 1024 * 1024, max_processes=64, cpu_quota=1.0) as group:
    group.start(tool)
    print(group.stats().active_process_count)

Limits need a Windows Job Object or a Linux cgroup-v2 root; under a container, systemd session, or other non-root cgroup the kernel forbids them and ResourceLimit is raised — never a silently-unbounded group. Deeper: Process groups → resource limits.

Signalling and pausing the whole tree

with ProcessGroup() as group:
    group.start(Command("my-server"))
    group.signal("hup")        # term | kill | int | hup | quit | usr1 | usr2
    group.suspend()            # freeze the whole tree…
    group.resume()             # …and let it run again

Signals are POSIX-real; on Windows only kill is deliverable (it maps to the Job Object terminate) and every other name — including term — raises Unsupported. Deeper: Process groups.

Running many at once

output_all runs a whole batch with a concurrency cap, so fanning out hundreds of commands can't exhaust file descriptors or the process table:

from processkit import Command, ProcessResult, output_all

cmds = [Command("convert", [f"{i}.png", f"{i}.jpg"]) for i in range(200)]
results = output_all(cmds, concurrency=8)            # never >8 alive at once
failed = sum(not (isinstance(r, ProcessResult) and r.is_success) for r in results)

It is collect-all: each slot is one command's ProcessResult, or a ProcessError for a spawn/I/O failure — a non-zero exit never short-circuits the batch. aoutput_all / output_all_bytes / aoutput_all_bytes round out the set. Deeper: Cookbook → run many at once.

Supervising a long-lived child

A Supervisor keeps a child alive: it restarts the command per policy whenever it exits, with bounded restarts and exponential, jittered backoff:

from processkit import Command, Supervisor

outcome = Supervisor(
    Command("my-server", ["--port", "8080"]),
    restart="on_crash",           # always | on_crash | never
    max_restarts=5,
    backoff_initial=0.2, backoff_factor=2.0, max_backoff=30.0,
    stop_when=lambda r: r.code == 0,   # a clean exit ends supervision
).run()                                # or: await ....arun()
print(outcome.restarts, outcome.stopped)

Deeper: Supervision.

Waiting for a child to be ready

"Start a server, then use it" needs the server to be ready, not merely started. Three async probes replace the arbitrary sleep:

from processkit import Command, wait_until, wait_for_port, wait_for_line

proc = await Command("my-server").astart()
lines = proc.stdout_lines()
await wait_for_line(lines, "listening on", timeout=10)                  # a log line
await wait_for_port("127.0.0.1", 8080, timeout=10)                      # a TCP port
await wait_until(lambda: health_check(), timeout=10, interval=0.1)      # any condition

A probe that doesn't pass in time raises WaitTimeout (ProcessError, TimeoutError) and does not kill the child — you decide what happens next. Deeper: Streaming → readiness probes.

Pipelines without a shell

a | b | c without a shell string — stages connected in-process (a relay, not a shell), so no quoting or injection surface, and every stage lives in one shared kill-on-exit group:

authors = (
    Command("git", ["log", "--format=%an"])
    | Command("sort")
    | Command("uniq", ["-c"])
).run()

The outcome is pipefail: stdout is the last stage's, while the exit code, stderr, and reported program come from the first stage that didn't exit cleanly. .timeout(d) bounds the whole chain. Deeper: Pipelines.

Environment and privileges

Command("worker").inherit_env(["PATH", "HOME", "LANG"]).run()        # allow-list on a cleared env
Command("worker").gid(1000).groups([1000]).uid(1000).setsid().run()  # POSIX: drop privileges, new session
Command("helper").create_no_window().run()                           # Windows: no console window
Command("daemonish").kill_on_parent_death().start()                  # die with a hard-killed parent

uid/gid/groups/setsid are POSIX-only — on Windows the run raises Unsupported rather than silently skipping a privilege drop. When dropping privileges, set all three of gid/groups/uid — uid alone leaves the child holding the parent's (often root's) supplementary groups. Deeper: Running commands → privileges.

Cancelling a run

A blocked sync call honors Ctrl+C (raises KeyboardInterrupt and reaps the tree). Cancelling an awaited async run — directly, or via asyncio.wait_for / asyncio.timeout — tears down the whole tree and raises asyncio.CancelledError:

import asyncio

task = asyncio.ensure_future(Command("long-job").aoutput())
task.cancel()        # the process tree is reaped; CancelledError propagates

Unlike a timeout — whose expiry is captured in the result as timed_out — cancellation is always terminal. Deeper: Timeouts & cancellation.

Async streaming and interactive stdin

The one-shot verbs buffer the whole output. For long-running or conversational children, astart() returns a live RunningProcess:

# Conversational stdin: write a request, read the response.
proc = await Command("bc").keep_stdin_open().astart()
stdin = proc.take_stdin()
await stdin.write_line("2 + 2")
print(await anext(proc.stdout_lines()))   # 4
await stdin.close()

Deeper: Streaming & interactive I/O.

Wrapping a CLI tool

CliClient binds a program to default timeout/env, so repeated calls pass only their args:

from processkit import CliClient

git = CliClient("git", default_timeout=30.0)
head = git.run(["rev-parse", "HEAD"])     # or: await git.arun([...])
clean = git.probe(["diff", "--quiet"])

For testable code, pass runner= (a ScriptedRunner and friends) to CliClient itself, the same way Command accepts an injected runner. Deeper: Testing your code.

Testing without spawning processes

Write your code against a runner, then inject a ScriptedRunner in tests (the test doubles live in the processkit.testing submodule):

from processkit import Command
from processkit.testing import Reply, ScriptedRunner

scripted = ScriptedRunner()
scripted.on(["git", "rev-parse"], Reply.ok("deadbeef"))
assert scripted.run(Command("git", ["rev-parse", "HEAD"])) == "deadbeef"

RecordReplayRunner captures real tool output once and replays it offline, and RecordingRunner spies on what your code ran. Deeper: Testing your code.

Seeing what ran (observability)

Opt in once and processkit forwards its internal run events to Python's logging — useful when a spawn or teardown misbehaves in production:

import logging
from processkit import Command, enable_logging

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
enable_logging()                          # idempotent; off by default

Command("git", ["rev-parse", "HEAD"]).run()
# DEBUG:processkit:child spawned program=git pid=Some(12345) mechanism=…

Records land on the processkit logger (filter it like any other); argv and env are never logged (they routinely carry secrets). Deeper: the logging recipe.

Stability

processkit follows Semantic Versioning. As of 1.0 the public API — everything re-exported from import processkit and declared in the type stubs — is stable: breaking changes land only in a new major version, so 1.x upgrades are backward-compatible. Anything underscore-prefixed is internal.

Requirements

Python 3.10 or later (abi3 wheel), including CPython 3.14 and the free-threaded (PEP 703) build 3.14t.
See platform support & caveats for per-OS behaviour and the wheel/architecture matrix.

Building from source

pip install processkit-py (the import name is processkit) covers every platform with a prebuilt wheel — see the PyPI project page for the current release. On a platform without a prebuilt wheel (32-bit targets), build from source instead (see CONTRIBUTING.md for the build prerequisites):

git clone https://github.com/ZelAnton/processkit-py
cd processkit-py
pip install .
