Stopping the daemon does NOT delete credentials from Keychain
To restart: /asciinema-tools:daemon-start
The daemon will NOT auto-start on next login until started again

Troubleshooting

| Issue | Cause | Solution | | ----------------------- | ------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------ | | Failed to stop daemon | Launchd error | Try launchctl unload -F <plist-path> | | Daemon still running | Multiple instances | Kill manually: pkill -f asciinema-chunker | | Can't find plist | Setup not run | Run /asciinema-tools:daemon-setup first | | Recordings not stopping | asciinema rec is running | Exit recording shell first (Ctrl-D or type exit) |
