• The Helper, also known as workerhelper, acts as a middleman to handle the communication between the Worker Agent and the Worker process.

• The Helper provides a local process running on the worker machine that can control the worker process more effectively.

• A single Helper manages only one Worker.

• The Helper log file provides information, including the following:

◦ Whether the Worker started successfully or why it failed to start.

◦ How the publish job is proceeding, and the overall status of the Worker.

• The Helper can implement timeouts locally on the Worker machine. If a problem occurs or the Worker needs to be shut down, the Helper ensures that the worker is shut down completely and cleans up any remaining processes or files.
