Outcome

Replace the non-enforcing inline grep demonstration with a real, read-only
Empty-linter audit gate running on Bun.

What changed

  • compile the implemented AffineScript ByteDetector and bundle a reviewed,
    checked-in Bun artefact;
  • add a recursive Bun CLI with separate clean (0), policy finding (1), and
    scan failure (2) exits;
  • detect NUL, unsafe C0 controls, DEL, and the existing Unicode catalogue;
  • block critical controls while initially reporting ambiguous Unicode as
    advisory;
  • plant clean, NUL, non-NUL C0, advisory, and enumeration-error probes;
  • migrate active runtime, tests, workflow, package, example, container metadata,
    and documentation from Deno to Bun;
  • remove unused Deno bindings/lockfile and stop unavailable repair/settings/TUI
    features from masquerading as implemented commands;
  • replace unsupported completion/proof claims with an evidence-bounded readiness
    table.

The AffineScript compiler still names its exportable ESM target --deno-esm.
That output is an ignored build intermediate; bun build --target bun
tree-shakes the host shim, and the committed .bun.js contains no Deno
reference. A native compiler target is tracked separately.

Verification

  • just build with AffineScript 0.1.1: pass
  • planted missing-compiler build: non-zero (127)
  • bun test tests/ByteDetector_test.js tests/empty_lint_ci_test.js: 24 pass, 0 fail
  • bun run scripts/empty-lint-ci.js --threshold critical .: 137 files, 0 findings
  • actionlint .github/workflows/dogfood-gate.yml: no blocking errors
  • README/TOPOLOGY/EXPLAINME rendered with Asciidoctor
  • JSON metadata parsed with jq
  • git diff --check: pass

Deliberately not claimed

The TUI, active settings loader, broader document/container detectors,
Unicode-scalar/UTF-8 offsets, automatic repair, precision-suite integration,
and connected formal proofs remain open work.

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a read-only repository audit for invisible and control characters, with severity filtering, diagnostics, and clear exit statuses.
    • Added detection for C0 control characters and DELETE characters.
    • Added Bun-based project configuration and example metadata.
  • Bug Fixes

    • CI scans now report critical findings reliably and avoid scanning excluded directories.
  • Documentation

    • Updated documentation to reflect the Bun workflow, current capabilities, limitations, and audit behaviour.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for clean files, critical and advisory findings, malformed input, and scan failures.

Walkthrough

The project replaces the Deno-based detector and audit path with AffineScript compiled and bundled for Bun. It adds a recursive CI scanner, critical-threshold gating, Bun tests, updated toolchain recipes, and documentation of implemented and pending capabilities.

Changes

Bun audit implementation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Detector and build artefact
stdlib/ByteDetector.affine, src/core/ByteDetector.bun.js, scripts/build-all.sh, .gitignore, sonar-project.properties
The detector flags C0 controls and DELETE as critical findings. The build pipeline compiles AffineScript output and bundles the tracked Bun artefact.
Audit CLI and gate validation
scripts/empty-lint-ci.js, tests/empty_lint_ci_test.js, .github/workflows/dogfood-gate.yml
The CLI scans supported files, emits diagnostics, preserves malformed-input errors, and returns distinct statuses. Tests cover clean, critical, advisory, BOM, malformed UTF-8, and enumeration-error cases. CI runs the tests and critical audit gate.
Bun toolchain and test migration
Justfile, package.json, examples/web-project-bun.json, mise.toml, stapeln.toml, k9iser.toml, tests/*
Recipes, container layers, runtime constraints, example metadata, and existing tests now use Bun. Unsupported mutating commands return status 2.
Project documentation and readiness records
README.adoc, TOPOLOGY.adoc, EXPLAINME.adoc
Documentation describes the audit path, exit codes, safety posture, implemented capabilities, and remaining work.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9967e

The PR replaces the non-enforcing grep with a Bun-based Empty-linter gate and migrates the surrounding tooling, but merge readiness is currently moderate because the unavailable repair path can still exit successfully and falsely signal remediation, while the checked-in generated detector has persistent static-analysis failures; the heal report also omits required tool checks and needs follow-up.

Poem

A rabbit checks each byte in line

C0 controls glow and warnings shine
Bun carries the scanner through
Clean files pass, bad files show
The build leaves one artefact bright
And hops away before midnight

Inline comments:
In `@Justfile`:
- Around line 78-91: Remove the build prerequisite from the fix, transform, and
check recipes so each command immediately reports that it is unavailable and
exits with status 2 without running build first.
- Around line 174-186: Update the heal recipe’s heading and the doctor message
describing heal so both accurately state that heal only reports missing tools
and directs users to the estate toolchain instructions, without implying
automatic installation or repair. Use the existing heal recipe and doctor
messaging symbols as the change points.
- Around line 52-59: Align the Bun test commands with the complete suite by
adding PathHandler_test.js, SafeWhitespace_test.js, and TextTransform_test.js to
both test and test-verbose in Justfile lines 52-59, and use the same complete
test command in stapeln.toml line 37.

In `@README.adoc`:
- Around line 68-69: Update the Justfile fix recipe so that after the successful
build prerequisite it explicitly exits with status 1 instead of returning
success after echoing the unavailable-operation message. Preserve the existing
refusal message and behavior for other recipes.

In `@scripts/empty-lint-ci.js`:
- Around line 161-162: Update the file-reading flow before scan in the
--all-files path to strictly validate UTF-8 bytes and reject malformed sequences
instead of allowing replacement characters through. Preserve existing BOM
detection behavior while ensuring only valid UTF-8 content is passed to scan.

In `@src/core/ByteDetector.bun.js`:
- Around line 3-11: Update the SonarCloud configuration to exclude the generated
artefact represented by ByteDetector.bun.js from the var-rule analysis, or
classify it as generated code. Do not modify the generated bindings Some, None,
Ok, Err, or the __as_* helpers.

In `@TOPOLOGY.adoc`:
- Around line 18-19: Update the read-only repository audit exit-status legend in
TOPOLOGY.adoc so status 0 states that no finding exists at the selected
threshold, rather than claiming the repository is clean; preserve the existing
labels for statuses 1 and 2.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Make heal report the required toolchain completely.

doctor marks git, AffineScript, and Zig as required, but heal checks only Bun and just before printing Report complete. If AffineScript or Zig is missing, just heal gives an incomplete result. Add checks for the required tools, or state clearly that the recipe checks only Bun and just.
