policy: Bun is tier 1, Deno is being removed — correct local CLAUDE.md - #116
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NOT FOLDED IN: "Fallback: Nix (flake.nix)" is stale (Guix superseded Nix per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.

Pull Request Overview
The pull request successfully transitions the repository's AI guidelines to favor Bun as the Tier 1 runtime over Deno. However, there is a significant discrepancy between the PR description and the actual changes: the description claims to repair 'blanking scars' from the ReScript purge, yet Rule 1 still bans new TypeScript files instead of referencing ReScript, and the ReScript-related table entries are missing.
Furthermore, there is a logical contradiction in the documentation regarding the execution of .ts files. While the runtime section highlights Bun's native TypeScript support, Rule 1 explicitly forbids new TypeScript files in favor of AffineScript. This inconsistency needs to be resolved to prevent the AI from generating banned file types or violating the language policy.
About this PR
- The PR implementation does not align with the description regarding the restoration of ReScript policy text. 'Rule 1' still prohibits TypeScript files rather than addressing ReScript as described in the PR goals, and the specific 'blanking scars' mentioned have not been repaired in this diff.
Test suggestions
- Verify Bun is established as Tier 1 runtime and default for new work
- Verify removal of Deno as a recommended tool and its replacement by Bun in banned rows
- Verify requirement for package.json and bun.lock in enforcement rules
- Verify restoration of ReScript-related text in Rule 1 and policy tables

🟡 MEDIUM RISK
The note about Bun executing .ts directly contradicts Rule 1 (line 53), which bans TypeScript files. Since AffineScript compiles to ESM, Bun should be described as the runtime for the compiled output to avoid confusing the AI into generating banned file types.

AffineScript as the deliberate replacement; ensure the final content
consistently reflects the intended language guidance.
- Line 64: Update the JS dependencies guidance in CLAUDE.md to use bunx --bun

preserving the existing one-off tooling guidance.
- Line 64: Update the JS dependency guidance in the tooling section to prevent
unpinned one-off tools: require tools to be declared in devDependencies and
invoked with bunx --no-install so package.json and bun.lock control resolution,
or require an integrity-pinned reference instead of bare bunx <tool>.
- Line 14: Synchronize the Bun policy with executable workflows by updating the
CI configuration and CONTRIBUTING.adoc to use Bun instead of Deno, Node.js, npm,
and npx, unless a consumer must remain temporarily unchanged; in that case,
document it explicitly as a transition exception. Ensure CI installs Bun and
runs equivalent Bun commands so Bun-specific changes are validated.

Include the promised ReScript guidance.
The PR objective states that this change restores the missing ReScript text, but the reviewed content contains no ReScript reference. Add the required wording, or correct the objective if AffineScript is the deliberate replacement.

Synchronise the Bun policy with the executable workflows.
.claude/CLAUDE.md makes Bun tier 1, but .github/workflows/ci.yml installs only Deno v1.x and runs deno task commands. CONTRIBUTING.adoc still requires Node.js, npm, and npx. Bun-specific changes are not validated by CI and may fail under Deno. Migrate these consumers to Bun, or document them as explicit transition exceptions.

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.
