Conversation
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NOT FOLDED IN: "Fallback: Nix (flake.nix)" is stale (Guix superseded Nix per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.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The policy update promotes Bun and removes Deno, but its execution rule does not cover existing VS Code package scripts that still invoke npm and direct tooling. That leaves contradictory guidance and can cause agents to preserve banned commands; the PR should receive a targeted policy fix or explicit owner acceptance before merge. Poem

Pull Request Overview
The pull request successfully promotes Bun to a Tier 1 runtime and removes Deno as the primary JavaScript/TypeScript engine. However, there are significant implementation gaps that prevent the PR from being fully complete. Most importantly, while the PR description claims to restore 'ReScript' terminology and update Rule #1 to reference '.res' files, these changes are entirely absent from the code.
Additionally, a logic contradiction was identified in the policy description for Bun: stating that it executes '.ts' files directly undermines the project's explicit ban on TypeScript files. This ambiguity should be resolved to ensure consistent behavior from AI agents using this configuration file. Minor formatting inconsistencies in file name references were also noted.
About this PR
- Significant implementation gap: The PR description claims to repair 'blanking scars from the ReScript purge' (restoring the ReScript row and updating Rule #1 to reference .res files), but these changes are absent from the provided code.
Test suggestions
- Verify Bun is promoted to Tier 1 in the ALLOWED table and Deno is removed.\n- [x] Verify Node.js/npm/pnpm/yarn are redirected to Bun in the BANNED table.\n- [x] Verify enforcement rules explicitly require a package.json manifest and bun.lock.\n- [ ] Verify restoration of 'ReScript' text in policy tables (as claimed in description).\n- [ ] Verify Rule 1 is updated to reference 'ReScript files' instead of 'TypeScript files'.
Low confidence findings
- The PR description mentions correcting the 'JavaScript' row scar from 'Only where cannot' to 'Only where AffineScript cannot', but the existing file already contained the correct phrasing.

🟡 MEDIUM RISK
The statement that Bun 'Executes .ts directly, no build step' contradicts the ban on TypeScript (line 45 and 67) and the requirement for AffineScript to be compiled to JavaScript (line 26). This ambiguity may cause the AI agent to generate prohibited TypeScript code.\n\nsuggestion\n| **Bun** | JS/TS runtime & package management (tier 1) | Default for all new work.

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).

All substantive review findings are addressed in the latest push.
Declined, with reasons: "a npm-compatible" — LanguageTool is wrong; "an" is correct before a vowel sound. " Dismissing the stale review on that basis; the original review, this reply, and the dismissal reason all remain on the PR. |
Addressed in the latest push; the preceding comment lists what was fixed and what was declined with reasons. Owner ruled TypeScript should not exist at all, so every .ts reference is gone from the Bun row; Deno added to BANNED; bunx now requires a declared devDependency plus --no-install --bun; description regenerated from the diff.
Addresses the two live static-analysis findings on this PR, across every subproject CLAUDE.md in this repository. ReScript was absent from the BANNED table although canon bans it (destination AffineScript). Enforcement Rule 3 omitted `--frozen-lockfile`, so a lockfile mismatch silently re-resolved instead of failing. Enforcement Rule 1 is deliberately untouched: standards#655 records that collision as not resolvable unilaterally. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
