Owner ruling, 2026-08-26:

"deno is to go and bun is the way we are going, put it first everywhere unless not possible and explain why if not"

This repo's .claude/CLAUDE.md is what an agent reads first. Correcting hyperpolymath/standards (#655) fixes one copy of ~372 — agents read the local one.

What this PR actually changes

Every line below was verified present in this PR's own diff — nothing is claimed that isn't here.

change in this diff
ALLOWED: Deno row → Bun, tier 1
BANNED: | Bun | Deno | row removed
BANNED: Deno added, replacement Bun
BANNED: Node.js/npm/pnpm/yarn → Bun
rule: manifest now required (package.json + bun.lock)

repaired blanking scar: | **** |AffineScript

⚠ An earlier revision of this description listed blanking-scar repairs generically, including some this repo did not need. codacy-production correctly flagged that as a description/diff mismatch. The table above is now generated from the diff itself.

Review feedback addressed

  • No TypeScript at all (codacy raised the contradiction; the owner then ruled it outright). The Bun row advertised "Executes .ts directly" inside a file that bans TypeScript. Owner ruling: TypeScript should not exist at all — so every .ts reference is gone from the row, including JS/TS in its label. It now reads JS runtime, running compiled ESM/JS.
  • Deno missing from BANNED (codacy): added — the ruling was only half expressed without it.
  • Unpinned bunx (coderabbitai, Security & Privacy): a bare bunx <tool> can fetch a package outside bun.lock and can start Node via a shebang. Guidance now requires a declared devDependency plus bunx --no-install --bun.

Not taken: "a npm-compatible" (LanguageTool is wrong — "an" is correct before a vowel sound); "--frozen-lockfile is redundant" (correct, and no such flag was added); the Nix → Guix point (real, but a separate ruling — deliberately not folded into a Deno/Bun change).

Scope

Policy text only — no code, no workflows, no build files.

Related: #655 (governing document), #658 (Deno→Bun assessment: 18 repos blocked on @affinescript/* npm packages that do not exist), #659 (policy duplicated into ~372 copies).

Pull Request Overview

While this PR correctly updates the project's dependency on Bun and mandates the use of bun.lock files, it contains major discrepancies between the PR description and the code diff. Several promised changes, such as the restoration of ReScript to the BANNED table and corrections to Rule #1, are missing entirely from the current commit.

Codacy analysis indicates the file is 'up to standards', but internal review identifies a critical documentation inconsistency: the description of Bun as having 'no build step' contradicts the project's core requirement for AffineScript (which requires compilation). Furthermore, an instance of PII (personal email) was identified at the start of the file that should be redacted for security.

About this PR

  • There is a significant discrepancy between the PR description and the provided diff. The description claims to restore 'ReScript' to the BANNED table and fix Rule #1 text (lines 44 and 66), but these lines remain unchanged in the current diff. Additionally, the claimed correction for Line 33 ('Only where cannot' -> 'Only where AffineScript cannot') appears unnecessary as the existing code already contains the word 'AffineScript'. Please ensure all intended changes are staged and committed.

🟡 MEDIUM RISK

Suggestion: The phrase "Executes .ts directly, no build step" contradicts the requirement for AffineScript (which involves a compilation step) and the ban on new TypeScript files. Clarify that Bun runs the compiled ESM output and legacy code to prevent the AI from bypassing the project's language policy.

Owner ruling 2026-08-26: "deno is to go and bun is the way we are going, put it
first everywhere unless not possible and explain why if not".

This file is what an agent reads FIRST and it listed Bun as BANNED with Deno as
its replacement. Correcting hyperpolymath/standards (#655) fixes one copy of
~372 - agents read the local one. This is that local copy.

  ALLOWED  **Deno** "Replaces Node/npm/bun"  ->  **Bun** tier 1
  BANNED   | Bun | Deno |                    ->  row REMOVED
  BANNED   Node.js / npm / pnpm/yarn -> Deno ->  -> Bun
  rule     "No package.json for runtime deps - use deno.json imports"
           -> Use package.json + bun.lock; a manifest is REQUIRED
  rule     "No node_modules in production"
           -> bun install --production, pinned via bun.lock
  pkg      JS deps: Deno  ->  JS deps: Bun (package.json + bun.lock), bunx

WHY THE MANIFEST RULE MATTERS MOST. "No package.json for runtime deps" did not
express a preference - it told repos not to declare their dependencies at all.
hyperpolymath/ubicity imported zod and glob, shipped NO manifest of any kind,
and could not build under ANY toolchain. Fixed in ubicity#107; the rule that
caused it is fixed here.

ALSO REPAIRED - blanking scars from the ReScript purge, which substituted the
token with an EMPTY STRING rather than removing the text:

  |  | AffineScript |               ->  | ReScript | AffineScript |
  1. **No new  files** ...          ->  **No new ReScript files** ...
  | **JavaScript** | Only where  cannot |  ->  Only where AffineScript cannot

Restoring the NAME in a policy table does not reintroduce the language. Same
root cause as the rm -rf /lib found in wordpress-tools#62.

Policy text only - no code, no workflows, no build files. 1 file(s).

NOT FOLDED IN: "Fallback: Nix (flake.nix)" is stale (Guix superseded Nix per
ADR-2026-STACK-MIGRATION) but that is a separate ruling; flagged, not changed.

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Updated project guidance to standardise Bun for JavaScript runtime and package management.
    • Clarified supported module targets, lockfile requirements, and recommended commands for running tools.
    • Added guidance for replacing alternative runtime and package-management workflows with Bun equivalents.

Walkthrough

The project guidance now standardises JavaScript development on Bun. It updates runtime choices, banned-tool replacements, package-management rules, production installation commands, and pinned tooling execution requirements.

Changes

Bun policy

Layer / File(s) Summary
Runtime and tooling rules
.claude/CLAUDE.md
The guidance selects typed-WASM or ESM for AffineScript, Bun as the JavaScript runtime and package manager, and Bun APIs for JavaScript integration. It maps legacy tools to Bun or AffineScript.
Dependency and installation enforcement
.claude/CLAUDE.md
The guidance requires package.json with bun.lock, frozen Bun production installs, and bunx --no-install --bun for pinned tooling execution.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~3 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 2fe89

This localized policy-only change is merge-ready after normal checks and review; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

Poem

A rabbit reads the Bun rules bright,
Lockfiles rest in order tonight.
Frozen installs guard the trail,
Pinned tools run without a fetch or fail.
Typed WASM hops into sight.

Review feedback from codacy-production and coderabbitai on the policy wave.
Three substantive points, all accepted:

1. ".ts CONTRADICTION" (codacy, MEDIUM, raised on most of the wave). The Bun row
   said "Executes .ts directly, no build step" in a file whose BANNED table bans
   TypeScript. OWNER RULING: TypeScript "should not exist at all", so advertising
   Bun's TypeScript capability is wrong regardless of whether it is true. Every
   .ts reference is removed from the row, including "JS/TS" in its label.
2. "DENO MISSING FROM BANNED" (codacy, raised repeatedly). The wave removed Deno
   from ALLOWED but never added it to BANNED, so the ruling was only half
   expressed. Added | Deno | Bun |.

3. "UNPINNED bunx" (coderabbitai, Security & Privacy). A bare `bunx <tool>` can
   fetch a package outside package.json/bun.lock, and can start Node via a
   shebang - both contrary to estate SHA-pinning doctrine and the Node ban.
   Guidance now requires a declared devDependency plus
   `bunx --no-install --bun <tool>`.

NOT taken: "a npm-compatible" (LanguageTool is wrong, "an" is correct before a
vowel sound); "--frozen-lockfile is redundant" (correct - no change needed, and
none made); the Nix->Guix point (real, but a separate ruling, deliberately not
folded into a Deno/Bun change).
Addresses the two live static-analysis findings on this PR.

ReScript was absent from the BANNED table although canon bans it (destination
AffineScript), so the table read as permitting it.

Enforcement Rule 3 said `bun install --production` with no `--frozen-lockfile`,
so a lockfile mismatch silently re-resolved instead of failing, which defeats
the point of committing `bun.lock`.

Enforcement Rule 1 is deliberately untouched: standards#655 records that
collision as not resolvable unilaterally.
