greptile-apps[bot] repro: a helper that died without removing
server.json leaves a pid the OS can hand to an unrelated process, which
kill(pid, 0) classifies as a running server and routes repo-root helpers
onto the stale app. The liveness check now also requires the pid's
command line to look like a node process (ps-based, platform-guarded),
removing reuse by arbitrary processes; the residual node-reuse case is
covered by the multi-app warning and the --target escape hatch.
