Fixes #36358 --- **Summary** This PR fixes a process termination safety bug in ShellToolMiddleware where cleanup could kill the caller process group when create_process_group is False. **Why this change** When the shell child is started without a dedicated process group, it can share the parent group. The existing cleanup path used group kill unconditionally, which could terminate unrelated processes including the caller. This is a high-impact availability risk. **What changed** Updated shell session kill logic to use group kill only when the child is in a different process group than the caller. Added safe fallback to child-only kill when both share the same process group. Added regression tests for both scenarios: Shared process group: no group kill, child-only kill. Dedicated process group: existing group kill behavior is preserved. **Validation** Targeted new tests passed. Full shell tool unit test file passed. AI assistance disclosure This contribution was prepared with assistance from an AI coding agent. I reviewed, validated, and finalized the proposed changes and test coverage before submission. **Areas for careful review** Process-group detection behavior on Linux and other POSIX environments. Any implications for existing timeout and shutdown flows in shell middleware. Whether additional integration-level coverage is desirable for process cleanup behavior. --------- Co-authored-by: Mason Daugherty <github@mdrxy.com>

This repository is structured as a monorepo, with various packages located in this libs/ directory. Packages to note in this directory include:
core/ # Core primitives and abstractions for langchain
langchain/ # langchain-classic
langchain_v1/ # langchain
partners/ # Certain third-party providers integrations (see below)
standard-tests/ # Standardized tests for integrations

Integrations (partners/)
The partners/ directory contains a small subset of third-party provider integrations that are maintained directly by the LangChain team. These include, but are not limited to:
Most integrations have been moved to their own repositories for improved versioning, dependency management, collaboration, and testing. This includes packages from popular providers such as Google and AWS. Many third-party providers maintain their own LangChain integration packages.
