Live Task threads at which launchTask() starts refusing. See the bound above.

Records node and decides whether its launch may proceed.

Returns false when the app is at or above the watermark, in which case the node is NOT recorded — a refused launch starts no thread, so counting it would inflate the ledger on exactly the path that must not spiral.

Counts the tracked nodes whose Task thread is still running.

This is the app's own launches only — it excludes the main and render threads and anything started outside launchTask().

Starts node's Task thread through the accounted chokepoint.

call site checks this today; see the invalid-node note below before deciding you want to.

Prints the ledger to the BrightScript console (telnet port 8085).

Callable from a paused console the same way as the debug flags: printTaskThreads()

Returns ledger with finished threads dropped and node recorded.

Pruning at launch (rather than at read) keeps the ledger bounded without depending on anyone calling the readout: it holds the tasks live right now plus any that finished since the previous launch.

node is appended unconditionally and de-duplicated against the existing entries, because a persistent Task node gets relaunched many times over its life (ExtrasRowList alone relaunches its nodes 38 times).

Records node into store's ledger, creating the field on first use.

The field is CREATED here rather than assumed to exist, because a write to a field an roSGNode does not have is a silent no-op. Measured on device: with the field declared at the end of setGlobalNodes(), the five Task threads that setGlobalNodes() starts before that line — the three ApiTasks, ApiQueueTask and SideEffectTask — were dropped without a trace, and printTaskThreads() under-reported by a permanent five. Creating on first use makes the ledger correct whatever order bootstrap and launches happen in, so the bug cannot come back by someone adding a launch earlier.

store is passed in rather than read from m.global so this stays outside the #if debug shell and a Rooibos test can drive it — test builds compile with debug=false, so anything inside the gate is unreachable from Rooibos.

True while node's Task thread is running.

"init" counts: a node told to RUN has not necessarily entered its function yet, but it is already holding a thread. A node that has never been launched also reports "init", which is why only nodes the ledger has recorded are ever passed here.
