feat: Enhance service manager with zinit socket discovery and systemd fallback

- Improve Linux support by automatically discovering zinit sockets
  using environment variables and common paths.
- Add fallback to systemd if no zinit server is detected.
- Enhance README with detailed instructions for zinit usage,
  including custom socket path configuration.
- Add example demonstrating zinit socket discovery.
- Add logging to show socket discovery process.
- Add unit tests for service manager creation and socket discovery.

+# SAL Publishing Guide
+
+This guide explains how to publish SAL crates to crates.io and how users can consume them.
+
+## 🎯 Publishing Strategy
+
+SAL uses a **modular publishing approach** where each module is published as an individual crate. This allows users to install only the functionality they need, reducing compilation time and binary size.
+
+## 📦 Crate Structure
+
+### Individual Crates
+
+Each SAL module is published as a separate crate:
+
+| Crate Name | Description | Category |
+|------------|-------------|----------|
+| `sal-os` | Operating system operations | Core |
+| `sal-process` | Process management | Core |
+| `sal-text` | Text processing utilities | Core |
+| `sal-net` | Network operations | Core |
+| `sal-git` | Git repository management | Infrastructure |
+| `sal-vault` | Cryptographic operations | Infrastructure |
+| `sal-kubernetes` | Kubernetes cluster management | Infrastructure |
+| `sal-virt` | Virtualization tools (Buildah, nerdctl) | Infrastructure |
+| `sal-redisclient` | Redis database client | Clients |
+| `sal-postgresclient` | PostgreSQL database client | Clients |
+| `sal-zinit-client` | Zinit process supervisor client | Clients |
+| `sal-mycelium` | Mycelium network client | Clients |
+| `sal-rhai` | Rhai scripting integration | Scripting |
+
+### Meta-crate
+
+The main `sal` crate serves as a meta-crate that re-exports all modules with optional features:
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+sal = { version = "0.1.0", features = ["os", "process", "text"] }
+```
+
+## 🚀 Publishing Process
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+1. **Crates.io Account**: Ensure you have a crates.io account and API token
+2. **Repository Access**: Ensure the repository URL is accessible
+3. **Version Consistency**: All crates should use the same version number
+
+### Publishing Individual Crates
+
+Each crate can be published independently:
+
+```bash
+# Publish core modules
+cd os && cargo publish
+cd ../process && cargo publish
+cd ../text && cargo publish
+cd ../net && cargo publish
+
+# Publish infrastructure modules
+cd ../git && cargo publish
+cd ../vault && cargo publish
+cd ../kubernetes && cargo publish
+cd ../virt && cargo publish
+
+# Publish client modules
+cd ../redisclient && cargo publish
+cd ../postgresclient && cargo publish
+cd ../zinit_client && cargo publish
+cd ../mycelium && cargo publish
+
+# Publish scripting module
+cd ../rhai && cargo publish
+
+# Finally, publish the meta-crate
+cd .. && cargo publish
+```
+
+### Automated Publishing
+
+Use the comprehensive publishing script:
+
+```bash
+# Test the publishing process (safe)
+./scripts/publish-all.sh --dry-run --version 0.1.0
+
+# Actually publish to crates.io
+./scripts/publish-all.sh --version 0.1.0
+```
+
+The script handles:
+- ✅ **Dependency order** - Publishes crates in correct dependency order
+- ✅ **Path dependencies** - Automatically updates path deps to version deps
+- ✅ **Rate limiting** - Waits between publishes to avoid rate limits
+- ✅ **Error handling** - Stops on failures with clear error messages
+- ✅ **Dry run mode** - Test without actually publishing
+
+## 👥 User Consumption
+
+### Installation Options
+
+#### Option 1: Individual Crates (Recommended)
+
+Users install only what they need:
+
+```bash
+# Core functionality
+cargo add sal-os sal-process sal-text sal-net
+
+# Database operations
+cargo add sal-redisclient sal-postgresclient
+
+# Infrastructure management
+cargo add sal-git sal-vault sal-kubernetes
+
+# Service integration
+cargo add sal-zinit-client sal-mycelium
+
+# Scripting
+cargo add sal-rhai
+```
+
+**Usage:**
+```rust
+use sal_os::fs;
+use sal_process::run;
+use sal_git::GitManager;
+
+fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
+    let files = fs::list_files(".")?;
+    let result = run::command("echo hello")?;
+    let git = GitManager::new(".")?;
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+#### Option 2: Meta-crate with Features
+
+Users can use the main crate with selective features:
+
+```bash
+# Specific modules
+cargo add sal --features os,process,text
+
+# Feature groups
+cargo add sal --features core              # os, process, text, net
+cargo add sal --features clients           # redisclient, postgresclient, zinit_client, mycelium
+cargo add sal --features infrastructure    # git, vault, kubernetes, virt
+cargo add sal --features scripting         # rhai
+
+# Everything
+cargo add sal --features all
+```
+
+**Usage:**
+```rust
+// Cargo.toml: sal = { version = "0.1.0", features = ["os", "process", "git"] }
+use sal::os::fs;
+use sal::process::run;
+use sal::git::GitManager;
+
+fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
+    let files = fs::list_files(".")?;
+    let result = run::command("echo hello")?;
+    let git = GitManager::new(".")?;
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+### Feature Groups
+
+The meta-crate provides convenient feature groups:
+
+- **`core`**: Essential system operations (os, process, text, net)
+- **`clients`**: Database and service clients (redisclient, postgresclient, zinit_client, mycelium)
+- **`infrastructure`**: Infrastructure management tools (git, vault, kubernetes, virt)
+- **`scripting`**: Rhai scripting support (rhai)
+- **`all`**: Everything included
+
+## 📋 Version Management
+
+### Semantic Versioning
+
+All SAL crates follow semantic versioning:
+
+- **Major version**: Breaking API changes
+- **Minor version**: New features, backward compatible
+- **Patch version**: Bug fixes, backward compatible
+
+### Synchronized Releases
+
+All crates are released with the same version number to ensure compatibility:
+
+```toml
+# All crates use the same version
+sal-os = "0.1.0"
+sal-process = "0.1.0"
+sal-git = "0.1.0"
+# etc.
+```
+
+## 🔧 Maintenance
+
+### Updating Dependencies
+
+When updating dependencies:
+
+1. Update `Cargo.toml` in the workspace root
+2. Update individual crate dependencies if needed
+3. Test all crates: `cargo test --workspace`
+4. Publish with incremented version numbers
+
+### Adding New Modules
+
+To add a new SAL module:
+
+1. Create the new crate directory
+2. Add to workspace members in root `Cargo.toml`
+3. Add optional dependency in root `Cargo.toml`
+4. Add feature flag in root `Cargo.toml`
+5. Add conditional re-export in `src/lib.rs`
+6. Update documentation
+
+## 🎉 Benefits
+
+### For Users
+
+- **Minimal Dependencies**: Install only what you need
+- **Faster Builds**: Smaller dependency trees compile faster
+- **Smaller Binaries**: Reduced binary size
+- **Clear Dependencies**: Explicit about what functionality is used
+
+### For Maintainers
+
+- **Independent Releases**: Can release individual crates as needed
+- **Focused Testing**: Test individual modules in isolation
+- **Clear Ownership**: Each crate has clear responsibility
+- **Easier Maintenance**: Smaller, focused codebases
+
+This publishing strategy provides the best of both worlds: modularity for users who want minimal dependencies, and convenience for users who prefer a single crate with features.

+## 📦 Installation
+
+SAL is designed to be modular - install only the components you need!
+
+### Option 1: Individual Crates (Recommended)
+
+Install only the modules you need:
+
+```bash
+# Currently available packages
+cargo add sal-os sal-process sal-text sal-net sal-git sal-vault sal-kubernetes sal-virt
+
+# Coming soon (rate limited)
+# cargo add sal-redisclient sal-postgresclient sal-zinit-client sal-mycelium sal-rhai
+```
+
+### Option 2: Meta-crate with Features
+
+Use the main `sal` crate with specific features:
+
+```bash
+# Coming soon - meta-crate with features (rate limited)
+# cargo add sal --features os,process,text
+# cargo add sal --features core              # os, process, text, net
+# cargo add sal --features infrastructure    # git, vault, kubernetes, virt
+# cargo add sal --features all
+
+# For now, use individual crates (see Option 1 above)
+```
+
+### Quick Start Examples
+
+#### Using Individual Crates (Recommended)
+
+```rust
+use sal_os::fs;
+use sal_process::run;
+
+fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
+    // File system operations
+    let files = fs::list_files(".")?;
+    println!("Found {} files", files.len());
+
+    // Process execution
+    let result = run::command("echo hello")?;
+    println!("Output: {}", result.stdout);
+
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+#### Using Meta-crate with Features
+
+```rust
+// In Cargo.toml: sal = { version = "0.1.0", features = ["os", "process"] }
+use sal::os::fs;
+use sal::process::run;
+
+fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
+    // File system operations
+    let files = fs::list_files(".")?;
+    println!("Found {} files", files.len());
+
+    // Process execution
+    let result = run::command("echo hello")?;
+    println!("Output: {}", result.stdout);
+
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+#### Using Herodo for Scripting
+
+```bash
+# Build and install herodo
+git clone https://github.com/PlanetFirst/sal.git
+cd sal
+./build_herodo.sh
+
+# Create a script file
+cat > example.rhai << 'EOF'
+// File operations
+let files = find_files(".", "*.rs");
+print("Found " + files.len() + " Rust files");
+
+// Process execution
+let result = run("echo 'Hello from SAL!'");
+print("Output: " + result.stdout);
+
+// Network operations
+let reachable = http_check("https://github.com");
+print("GitHub reachable: " + reachable);
+EOF
+
+# Execute the script

+# Service Manager Examples
+
+This directory contains examples demonstrating the SAL service manager functionality for dynamically launching and managing services across platforms.
+
+## Overview
+
+The service manager provides a unified interface for managing system services:
+- **macOS**: Uses `launchctl` for service management
+- **Linux**: Uses `zinit` for service management (systemd also available as alternative)
+
+## Examples
+
+### 1. Circle Worker Manager (`circle_worker_manager.rhai`)
+
+**Primary Use Case**: Demonstrates dynamic circle worker management for freezone residents.
+
+This example shows:
+- Creating service configurations for circle workers
+- Complete service lifecycle management (start, stop, restart, remove)
+- Status monitoring and log retrieval
+- Error handling and cleanup
+
+```bash
+# Run the circle worker management example
+herodo examples/service_manager/circle_worker_manager.rhai
+```
+
+### 2. Basic Usage (`basic_usage.rhai`)
+
+**Learning Example**: Simple demonstration of the core service manager API.
+
+This example covers:
+- Creating and configuring services
+- Starting and stopping services
+- Checking service status
+- Listing managed services
+- Retrieving service logs
+
+```bash
+# Run the basic usage example
+herodo examples/service_manager/basic_usage.rhai
+```
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+### Linux (zinit)
+
+Make sure zinit is installed and running:
+
+```bash
+# Start zinit with default socket
+zinit -s /tmp/zinit.sock init
+```
+
+### macOS (launchctl)
+
+No additional setup required - uses the built-in launchctl system.
+
+## Service Manager API
+
+The service manager provides these key functions:
+
+- `create_service_manager()` - Create platform-appropriate service manager
+- `start(manager, config)` - Start a new service
+- `stop(manager, service_name)` - Stop a running service
+- `restart(manager, service_name)` - Restart a service
+- `status(manager, service_name)` - Get service status
+- `logs(manager, service_name, lines)` - Retrieve service logs
+- `list(manager)` - List all managed services
+- `remove(manager, service_name)` - Remove a service
+- `exists(manager, service_name)` - Check if service exists
+- `start_and_confirm(manager, config, timeout)` - Start with confirmation
+
+## Service Configuration
+
+Services are configured using a map with these fields:
+
+```rhai
+let config = #{
+    name: "my-service",                    // Service name
+    binary_path: "/usr/bin/my-app",        // Executable path
+    args: ["--config", "/etc/my-app.conf"], // Command arguments
+    working_directory: "/var/lib/my-app",   // Working directory (optional)
+    environment: #{                         // Environment variables
+        "VAR1": "value1",
+        "VAR2": "value2"
+    },
+    auto_restart: true                      // Auto-restart on failure
+};
+```
+
+## Real-World Usage
+
+The circle worker example demonstrates the exact use case requested by the team:
+
+> "We want to be able to launch circle workers dynamically. For instance when someone registers to the freezone, we need to be able to launch a circle worker for the new resident."
+
+The service manager enables:
+1. **Dynamic service creation** - Create services on-demand for new residents
+2. **Cross-platform support** - Works on both macOS and Linux
+3. **Lifecycle management** - Full control over service lifecycle
+4. **Monitoring and logging** - Track service status and retrieve logs
+5. **Cleanup** - Proper service removal when no longer needed
+
+## Error Handling
+
+All service manager functions can throw errors. Use try-catch blocks for robust error handling:
+
+```rhai
+try {
+    sm::start(manager, config);
+    print("✅ Service started successfully");
+} catch (error) {
+    print(`❌ Failed to start service: ${error}`);
+}
+```

+# SAL Kubernetes (`sal-kubernetes`)
+
+Kubernetes cluster management and operations for the System Abstraction Layer (SAL).
+
+## Installation
+
+Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+sal-kubernetes = "0.1.0"
+```
+
+## ⚠️ **IMPORTANT SECURITY NOTICE**
+
+**This package includes destructive operations that can permanently delete Kubernetes resources!**
+
+- The `delete(pattern)` function uses PCRE regex patterns to bulk delete resources
+- **Always test patterns in a safe environment first**
+- Use specific patterns to avoid accidental deletion of critical resources
+- Consider the impact on dependent resources before deletion
+- **No confirmation prompts** - deletions are immediate and irreversible
+
+## Overview
+
+This package provides a high-level interface for managing Kubernetes clusters using the `kube-rs` SDK. It focuses on namespace-scoped operations through the `KubernetesManager` factory pattern.
+
+### Production Safety Features
+
+- **Configurable Timeouts**: All operations have configurable timeouts to prevent hanging
+- **Exponential Backoff Retry**: Automatic retry logic for transient failures
+- **Rate Limiting**: Built-in rate limiting to prevent API overload
+- **Comprehensive Error Handling**: Detailed error types and proper error propagation
+- **Structured Logging**: Production-ready logging for monitoring and debugging
+
+## Features
+
+- **Namespace-scoped Management**: Each `KubernetesManager` instance operates on a single namespace
+- **Pod Management**: List, create, and manage pods
+- **Pattern-based Deletion**: Delete resources using PCRE pattern matching
+- **Namespace Operations**: Create and manage namespaces (idempotent operations)
+- **Resource Management**: Support for pods, services, deployments, configmaps, secrets, and more
+- **Rhai Integration**: Full scripting support through Rhai wrappers
+
+## Usage
+
+### Basic Operations
+
+```rust
+use sal_kubernetes::KubernetesManager;
+
+#[tokio::main]
+async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
+    // Create a manager for the "default" namespace
+    let km = KubernetesManager::new("default").await?;
+    
+    // List all pods in the namespace
+    let pods = km.pods_list().await?;
+    println!("Found {} pods", pods.len());
+    
+    // Create a namespace (no error if it already exists)
+    km.namespace_create("my-namespace").await?;
+    
+    // Delete resources matching a pattern
+    km.delete("test-.*").await?;
+    
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+### Rhai Scripting
+
+```javascript
+// Create Kubernetes manager for namespace
+let km = kubernetes_manager_new("default");
+
+// List pods
+let pods = pods_list(km);
+print("Found " + pods.len() + " pods");
+
+// Create namespace
+namespace_create(km, "my-app");
+
+// Delete test resources
+delete(km, "test-.*");
+```
+
+## Dependencies
+
+- `kube`: Kubernetes client library
+- `k8s-openapi`: Kubernetes API types
+- `tokio`: Async runtime
+- `regex`: Pattern matching for resource deletion
+- `rhai`: Scripting integration (optional)
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Kubernetes Authentication
+
+The package uses the standard Kubernetes configuration methods:
+- In-cluster configuration (when running in a pod)
+- Kubeconfig file (`~/.kube/config` or `KUBECONFIG` environment variable)
+- Service account tokens
+
+### Production Safety Configuration
+
+```rust
+use sal_kubernetes::{KubernetesManager, KubernetesConfig};
+use std::time::Duration;
+
+// Create with custom configuration
+let config = KubernetesConfig::new()
+    .with_timeout(Duration::from_secs(60))
+    .with_retries(5, Duration::from_secs(1), Duration::from_secs(30))
+    .with_rate_limit(20, 50);
+
+let km = KubernetesManager::with_config("my-namespace", config).await?;
+```
+
+### Pre-configured Profiles
+
+```rust
+// High-throughput environment
+let config = KubernetesConfig::high_throughput();
+
+// Low-latency environment
+let config = KubernetesConfig::low_latency();
+
+// Development/testing
+let config = KubernetesConfig::development();
+```
+
+## Error Handling
+
+All operations return `Result<T, KubernetesError>` with comprehensive error types for different failure scenarios including API errors, configuration issues, and permission problems.
+
+## API Reference
+
+### KubernetesManager
+
+The main interface for Kubernetes operations. Each instance is scoped to a single namespace.
+
+#### Constructor
+
+- `KubernetesManager::new(namespace)` - Create a manager for the specified namespace
+
+#### Resource Listing
+
+- `pods_list()` - List all pods in the namespace
+- `services_list()` - List all services in the namespace
+- `deployments_list()` - List all deployments in the namespace
+- `configmaps_list()` - List all configmaps in the namespace
+- `secrets_list()` - List all secrets in the namespace
+
+#### Resource Management
+
+- `pod_get(name)` - Get a specific pod by name
+- `service_get(name)` - Get a specific service by name
+- `deployment_get(name)` - Get a specific deployment by name
+- `pod_delete(name)` - Delete a specific pod by name
+- `service_delete(name)` - Delete a specific service by name
+- `deployment_delete(name)` - Delete a specific deployment by name
+
+#### Pattern-based Operations
+
+- `delete(pattern)` - Delete all resources matching a PCRE pattern
+
+#### Namespace Operations
+
+- `namespace_create(name)` - Create a namespace (idempotent)
+- `namespace_exists(name)` - Check if a namespace exists
+- `namespaces_list()` - List all namespaces (cluster-wide)
+
+#### Utility Functions
+
+- `resource_counts()` - Get counts of all resource types in the namespace
+- `namespace()` - Get the namespace this manager operates on
+
+### Rhai Functions
+
+When using the Rhai integration, the following functions are available:
+
+- `kubernetes_manager_new(namespace)` - Create a KubernetesManager
+- `pods_list(km)` - List pods
+- `services_list(km)` - List services
+- `deployments_list(km)` - List deployments
+- `namespaces_list(km)` - List all namespaces
+- `delete(km, pattern)` - Delete resources matching pattern
+- `namespace_create(km, name)` - Create namespace
+- `namespace_exists(km, name)` - Check namespace existence
+- `resource_counts(km)` - Get resource counts
+- `pod_delete(km, name)` - Delete specific pod
+- `service_delete(km, name)` - Delete specific service
+- `deployment_delete(km, name)` - Delete specific deployment
+- `namespace(km)` - Get manager's namespace
+
+## Examples
+
+The `examples/kubernetes/` directory contains comprehensive examples:
+
+- `basic_operations.rhai` - Basic listing and counting operations
+- `namespace_management.rhai` - Creating and managing namespaces
+- `pattern_deletion.rhai` - Using PCRE patterns for bulk deletion
+- `multi_namespace_operations.rhai` - Working across multiple namespaces
+
+## Testing
+
+Run tests with:
+
+```bash
+# Unit tests (no cluster required)
+cargo test --package sal-kubernetes
+
+# Integration tests (requires cluster)
+KUBERNETES_TEST_ENABLED=1 cargo test --package sal-kubernetes
+
+# Rhai integration tests
+KUBERNETES_TEST_ENABLED=1 cargo test --package sal-kubernetes --features rhai
+```
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+- Always use specific PCRE patterns to avoid accidental deletion of important resources
+- Test deletion patterns in a safe environment first
+- Ensure proper RBAC permissions are configured
+- Be cautious with cluster-wide operations like namespace listing
+- Consider using dry-run approaches when possible

-# SAL Rhai - Rhai Integration Module
+# SAL Rhai - Rhai Integration Module (`sal-rhai`)
 
 The `sal-rhai` package provides Rhai scripting integration for the SAL (System Abstraction Layer) ecosystem. This package serves as the central integration point that registers all SAL modules with the Rhai scripting engine, enabling powerful automation and scripting capabilities.
 
+## Installation
+
+Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+sal-rhai = "0.1.0"
+```
+
 ## Features
 
 - **Module Registration**: Automatically registers all SAL packages with Rhai engine

+# SAL Service Manager
+
+[![Crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/sal-service-manager.svg)](https://crates.io/crates/sal-service-manager)
+[![Documentation](https://docs.rs/sal-service-manager/badge.svg)](https://docs.rs/sal-service-manager)
+
+A cross-platform service management library for the System Abstraction Layer (SAL). This crate provides a unified interface for managing system services across different platforms, enabling dynamic deployment of workers and services.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Cross-platform service management** - Unified API across macOS and Linux
+- **Dynamic worker deployment** - Perfect for circle workers and on-demand services
+- **Platform-specific implementations**:
+  - **macOS**: Uses `launchctl` with plist management
+  - **Linux**: Uses `zinit` for lightweight service management (systemd also available)
+- **Complete lifecycle management** - Start, stop, restart, status monitoring, and log retrieval
+- **Service configuration** - Environment variables, working directories, auto-restart
+- **Production-ready** - Comprehensive error handling and resource management
+
+## Usage
+
+Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:
+

+
+## Primary Use Case: Dynamic Circle Worker Management
+
+This service manager was designed specifically for dynamic deployment of circle workers in freezone environments. When a new resident registers, you can instantly launch a dedicated circle worker:
+
+```rust,no_run
+use sal_service_manager::{create_service_manager, ServiceConfig};
+use std::collections::HashMap;
+
+// New resident registration triggers worker creation
+fn deploy_circle_worker(resident_id: &str) -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
+    let manager = create_service_manager();
+
+    let mut env = HashMap::new();
+    env.insert("RESIDENT_ID".to_string(), resident_id.to_string());
+    env.insert("WORKER_TYPE".to_string(), "circle".to_string());
+
+    let config = ServiceConfig {
+        name: format!("circle-worker-{}", resident_id),
+        binary_path: "/usr/bin/circle-worker".to_string(),
+        args: vec!["--resident".to_string(), resident_id.to_string()],
+        working_directory: Some("/var/lib/circle-workers".to_string()),
+        environment: env,
+        auto_restart: true,
+    };
+
+    // Deploy the worker
+    manager.start(&config)?;
+    println!("✅ Circle worker deployed for resident: {}", resident_id);
+
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+## Basic Usage Example
+
+Here is an example of the core service management API:
+
+```rust,no_run
+use sal_service_manager::{create_service_manager, ServiceConfig};
+use std::collections::HashMap;
+
+fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
+    let service_manager = create_service_manager();
+
+    let config = ServiceConfig {
+        name: "my-service".to_string(),
+        binary_path: "/usr/local/bin/my-service-executable".to_string(),
+        args: vec!["--config".to_string(), "/etc/my-service.conf".to_string()],
+        working_directory: Some("/var/tmp".to_string()),
+        environment: HashMap::new(),
+        auto_restart: true,
+    };
+
+    // Start a new service
+    service_manager.start(&config)?;
+
+    // Get the status of the service
+    let status = service_manager.status("my-service")?;
+    println!("Service status: {:?}", status);
+
+    // Stop the service
+    service_manager.stop("my-service")?;
+
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+## Examples
+
+Comprehensive examples are available in the SAL examples directory:
+
+### Circle Worker Manager Example
+
+The primary use case - dynamically launching circle workers for new freezone residents:
+
+```bash
+# Run the circle worker management example
+herodo examples/service_manager/circle_worker_manager.rhai
+```
+
+This example demonstrates:
+- Creating service configurations for circle workers
+- Complete service lifecycle management
+- Error handling and status monitoring
+- Service cleanup and removal
+
+### Basic Usage Example
+
+A simpler example showing the core API:
+
+```bash
+# Run the basic usage example
+herodo examples/service_manager/basic_usage.rhai
+```
+
+See `examples/service_manager/README.md` for detailed documentation.
+
+## Testing
+
+Run the test suite:
+
+```bash
+cargo test -p sal-service-manager
+```
+
+For Rhai integration tests:
+
+```bash
+cargo test -p sal-service-manager --features rhai
+```
+
+### Testing with Herodo
+
+To test the service manager with real Rhai scripts using herodo, first build herodo:
+
+```bash
+./build_herodo.sh
+```
+
+Then run Rhai scripts that use the service manager:
+
+```bash
+herodo your_service_script.rhai
+```
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+### Linux (zinit/systemd)
+
+The service manager automatically discovers running zinit servers and falls back to systemd if none are found.
+
+**For zinit (recommended):**
+
+```bash
+# Start zinit with default socket
+zinit -s /tmp/zinit.sock init
+
+# Or with a custom socket path
+zinit -s /var/run/zinit.sock init
+```
+
+**Socket Discovery:**
+The service manager will automatically find running zinit servers by checking:
+1. `ZINIT_SOCKET_PATH` environment variable (if set)
+2. Common socket locations: `/var/run/zinit.sock`, `/tmp/zinit.sock`, `/run/zinit.sock`, `./zinit.sock`
+
+**Custom socket path:**
+```bash
+# Set custom socket path
+export ZINIT_SOCKET_PATH=/your/custom/path/zinit.sock
+```
+
+**Systemd fallback:**
+If no zinit server is detected, the service manager automatically falls back to systemd.
+
+### macOS (launchctl)
+
+No additional setup required - uses the built-in launchctl system.
+
+## Platform Support
+
+- **macOS**: Full support using `launchctl` for service management
+- **Linux**: Full support using `zinit` for service management (systemd also available as alternative)
+- **Windows**: Not currently supported

+# Service Manager Examples
+
+This directory contains examples demonstrating the usage of the `sal-service-manager` crate.
+
+## Running Examples
+
+To run any example, use the following command structure from the `service_manager` crate's root directory:
+
+```sh
+cargo run --example <EXAMPLE_NAME>
+```
+
+---
+
+### 1. `simple_service`
+
+This example demonstrates the ideal, clean lifecycle of a service using the separated `create` and `start` steps.
+
+**Behavior:**
+1.  Creates a new service definition.
+2.  Starts the newly created service.
+3.  Checks its status to confirm it's running.
+4.  Stops the service.
+5.  Checks its status again to confirm it's stopped.
+6.  Removes the service definition.
+
+**Run it:**
+```sh
+cargo run --example simple_service
+```
+
+### 2. `service_spaghetti`
+
+This example demonstrates how the service manager handles "messy" or improper sequences of operations, showcasing its error handling and robustness.
+
+**Behavior:**
+1.  Creates a service.
+2.  Starts the service.
+3.  Tries to start the **same service again** (which should fail as it's already running).
+4.  Removes the service **without stopping it first** (the manager should handle this gracefully).
+5.  Tries to stop the **already removed** service (which should fail).
+6.  Tries to remove the service **again** (which should also fail).
+
+**Run it:**
+```sh
+cargo run --example service_spaghetti
+```
