Manage persistent dev servers, APIs, and other local processes on a port using macOS LaunchAgents. Use when starting, stopping, restarting, inspecting, or troubleshooting local servers that should survive shell exit and restart after crashes.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'persistent-localhost' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'persistent-localhost' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named persistent-localhost already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/davidondrej/skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'cf0b20e4254fbeca1d4535a32cd735ecc49ec325' -- 'skills/persistent-localhost' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/persistent-localhost' ~/.agents/skills/'persistent-localhost' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'persistent-localhost' ~/.claude/skills/'persistent-localhost' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
