gemini-cli - 💡(How to fix) Fix Missing await on background log stream cleanup [1 comments, 2 participants]

What happened?

In handleExit, cleanupLogStream is called but the return value (a Promise) is ignored without a .catch(), potentially leaving file descriptors open if the promise rejects.

What did you expect to happen?

All async cleanup operations should be awaited or properly error-handled to prevent resource leaks.
