Pull request overview
This PR adds process title functionality to improve visibility and identification of Kimi CLI processes in system monitoring tools like ps, top, and terminal panels. The implementation sets the OS-level process title for the main CLI process and web worker subprocesses.
Changes:
- Added a new utility module
proctitle.pywith functions to set OS process titles and terminal window titles - Initialized the main CLI process with the title "Kimi Code"
- Labeled web worker subprocesses as "kimi-code-worker" in both entry points (PyInstaller frozen and module execution)
- Added
setproctitle>=1.3.0as a dependency and included it in PyInstaller hidden imports
