interface DaemonInfo

Sidecar JSON file written next to the socket; lets daemon status show details without an IPC roundtrip.

const info: DaemonInfo = {
  pid: 4242, socketPath: '/tmp/qunitx-daemon-ab12cd34ef56.sock',
  cwd: '/proj', nodeVersion: 'v24.14.0', startedAt: 1_760_000_000_000,
};
info.pid; // 4242 — polled with `process.kill(pid, 0)` after `daemon stop`
