Description

Can the owners please clarify their interpretation of the AGPL?

Considering using the pm2 runtime to manage a nodejs app (pm2 installed on the server as a totally separate package and not included in the package.json of the nodejs app). Not using the analytics api. Only process manager.

Would the nodejs app managed by pm2 have to be open source?

Research direction

The issue names the pm2 runtime, a Node.js application, and the AGPL, but mentions no source file, test, or entry point. Start by reviewing the repository's licensing information and existing project documentation; done would require a maintainer-approved clarification of whether this deployment arrangement affects the application's licensing obligations.
