Yemreak Claude Cpu Guard
yemreak-claude-cpu-guard is a Claude Code plugin for the Operate phase that monitors CPU and auto-kills stuck Claude-related processes when they overstay idle sessions.
by yemreak · github.com/yemreak/claude-cpu-guard
Install this plugin when Claude Code or Ink-based dev UIs leave runaway processes pegging CPU after sessions go idle.

What it does
yemreak-claude-cpu-guard is a Claude Code plugin marketplace entry built for solo developers whose machines fan-spin from agent sessions that never release CPU. The catalog description states it watches and automatically kills stuck processes, with keywords pointing at thresholds (“above”), post-idle behavior (“after”, “stays”), and React Ink render stalls. That makes it a local reliability tool: you keep Claude Code installed for build and ship work, but you register cpu-guard so runaway CLI or terminal UI processes do not drain battery or throttle parallel builds. It does not replace cloud observability for deployed apps; it protects the developer environment so iteration stays fast. Productivity category reflects personal workflow hygiene rather than application security or feature delivery. Pair it with normal ship-phase testing plugins separately—this one only stabilizes the host OS while agents run.
Highlights
- Auto-watches Claude Code related processes and kills stuck jobs that stay above CPU thresholds
- Targets idle-session pain: CPU burn when you are not actively prompting
- Documented fix patterns for React Ink render loops staying hot after work completes
- Single-plugin productivity bundle (pluginCount: 1) from yemreak/claude-cpu-guard
- Lightweight guard—no full APM stack required on a solo dev laptop
Why builders use it
Claude Code and terminal UI tooling can leave zombie processes at high CPU, making solo builders fight fan noise, lag, and stuck renders instead of shipping.
After you enable cpu-guard, stuck high-CPU processes get terminated automatically so your dev machine returns to normal without manual process hunting.

FAQ
Who is yemreak-claude-cpu-guard for?
Solo builders using Claude Code locally who experience sustained CPU usage from stuck agent or Ink-related processes after sessions end.
When should I use yemreak-claude-cpu-guard?
Use it when idle Claude Code sessions still peg CPU, fans run hot, or React Ink render processes refuse to exit until you force-kill them.
How do I add yemreak-claude-cpu-guard to my agent?
Register the yemreak/claude-cpu-guard plugin marketplace in Claude Code and enable the bundled guard plugin so background watching and auto-kill rules are active.
