0. Alternate signals may be specified in three ways: -9 -SIGKILL -KILL.
The default priority for snice is +4. Priority numbers range from +20 (slowest) to -20 (fastest). Negative priority numbers are restricted to ad‐
ministrative users.

-i, --interactive
Interactive use. You will be asked to approve each action.
-l, --list
List all signal names.
-L, --table
List all signal names in a nice table.
-n, --no-action
No action; perform a simulation of events that would occur but do not actually change the system.
-v, --verbose
Verbose; explain what is being done.
-w, --warnings
Enable warnings. This option has not been implemented.
-h, --help

tools
Use when work should span one or more detached tasks but still behave like one job with a single owner context. TaskFlow is the durable flow substrate under authoring layers like Lobster, ACPX, plugins, or plain code. Keep conditional logic in the caller; use TaskFlow for flow identity, child-task linkage, waiting state, revision-checked mutations, and user-facing emergence.

# Lobster Lobster executes multi-step workflows with approval checkpoints. Use it when: - User wants a repeatable automation (triage, monitor, sync) - Actions need human approval before executing (send, post, delete) - Multiple tool calls should run as one deterministic operation ## When to use Lobster | User intent | Use Lobster? | | ------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------
