For the first request, changes are coming soon - possibly as soon as 8.0.15. Right now, there’s no way to set that description, but there will just be a `description` keyword argument to provide on your `system.util.invokeAsynchronous` calls.

For the latter:

```python
from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.common.script import ScriptManager

for script in ScriptManager.executingScripts():
	if script.description == "My Async Thread":
		ScriptManager.interrupt(script.threadId)

```
