Can you give us so more details? For example: What will the app do?
Your description is very strange, lol.

But indeed, you should create a normal cocoa app that do the stuff you want to do (UI + the real stuff),
and a little daemon that checks every X minutes if the other app is running:
yes: ok, continue
no: start app (log message? App was stopped)


Look at CFNotification and the distributed notification center (I thought there was a Cocoa variant of that, but I can't seem to find it) for a way to detect whether your app has hung. You could just do a ping/pong set of question/reply notifications that your daemon sends to your app and gets a reply. If the app is still running but there's no reply within a sensible timeframe, something has gone wrong.
