+# Deep Code Review: @nathapp/nax
+
+**Date:** 2026-03-04
+**Reviewer:** Subrina (AI)
+**Version:** 0.18.5
+**Files:** 219 source (lib: ~32K LOC), 135 test (~50K LOC)
+**Baseline:** 2069 tests pass, 12 skip, 0 fail
+
+---
+
+## Overall Grade: C+ (72/100)
+
+nax is an ambitious orchestrator with a capable plugin system, well-structured pipeline architecture, and solid test suite (2069 tests, 0 failures). However, the codebase has accumulated significant technical debt: pervasive use of forbidden Node.js APIs (readFileSync, setTimeout, console.log), multiple mutation-of-caller-data bugs, race conditions in the parallel executor, and two unvalidated dynamic import paths that allow arbitrary code execution. The project's own conventions (.claude/rules/) are clear and well-documented, but compliance is inconsistent -- roughly 40% of source files violate at least one convention. The architecture (Runner -> Pipeline -> Stages) is sound, but execution modules have grown complex with duplicated logic and files exceeding the 400-line limit.
+
+| Dimension | Score | Notes |
+|:---|:---|:---|
+| **Security** | 12/20 | Two unvalidated dynamic imports (SEC-1, SEC-2), shell injection vectors (SEC-3, SEC-4), --dangerously-skip-permissions hardcoded (SEC-5) |
+| **Reliability** | 13/20 | Race condition in parallel executor (BUG-1), infinite PTY respawn (BUG-2), story duration miscalculation (BUG-3), unguarded array access (BUG-4), pipe buffer deadlock (MEM-1) |
+| **API Design** | 16/20 | Clean plugin interfaces, well-typed pipeline stages. Duplicate RoutingDecision interface (TYPE-1), missing strategy in validator (BUG-12) |
+| **Code Quality** | 15/20 | Good test coverage, clear architecture docs. 3 files over 400 lines, dead RunLifecycle class (312 LOC), tryLlmBatchRoute duplicated 3x |
+| **Best Practices** | 16/20 | Strong .claude/rules, good test structure. ~30 forbidden-pattern violations (Node.js APIs, console.log, setTimeout, emojis) |

+
+## Findings
+
+### CRITICAL
+
+#### SEC-1: Unvalidated dynamic import in plugin loader
+**Severity:** CRITICAL | **Category:** Security
+**File:** `src/plugins/loader.ts:237`
+```typescript
+const imported = await import(modulePath);
+```
+`modulePath` comes from user config (`config.plugins[].module`) and is passed to `import()` with no path validation, allowlisting, or sandboxing. An attacker who can modify the project config can execute arbitrary code.
+**Risk:** Remote code execution via malicious plugin config entry.
+**Fix:** Validate `modulePath` against an allowlist of directories (global plugins dir, project plugins dir). Reject absolute paths outside these roots and any path containing `..`.
+
+#### SEC-2: Unvalidated dynamic import in routing loader
+**Severity:** CRITICAL | **Category:** Security
+**File:** `src/routing/loader.ts:27-51`
+```typescript
+const module = await import(absolutePath);
+```
+`loadCustomStrategy` imports an arbitrary user-provided path with no validation. Same class of vulnerability as SEC-1.
+**Risk:** Remote code execution via malicious routing strategy config.
+**Fix:** Restrict to project-local paths, validate no path traversal.
+
+#### BUG-1: Race condition in parallel executor concurrency control
+**Severity:** CRITICAL | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/execution/parallel.ts:183-223`
+The `executeParallelBatch` function uses a mutable array with `Promise.race` to enforce concurrency limits. When a promise resolves, the slot is freed and refilled -- but between the resolution check and the slot assignment, another resolution can also claim a slot, allowing more concurrent executions than the configured limit.
+**Risk:** Exceeds configured concurrency, spawning more agent processes than intended. Can overload the system and cause OOM or rate-limit failures.
+**Fix:** Replace with a proper semaphore/mutex pattern or use a tested concurrency limiter (e.g., p-limit).
+
+#### BUG-2: Infinite PTY respawn from object reference dependency
+**Severity:** CRITICAL | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/tui/hooks/usePty.ts:155`
+```typescript
+}, [options]); // options is an object — new identity every render
+```
+The `useEffect` dependency is the `options` object, which gets a new identity on every React render. This causes the effect to re-run every render cycle, killing and respawning the PTY process in an infinite loop.
+**Risk:** Infinite process spawn/kill cycle consuming all system resources.
+**Fix:** Memoize `options` with `useMemo` in the parent, or destructure individual primitive deps (`options.command`, `options.cwd`, etc.).
+
+---
+
+### HIGH
+
+#### SEC-3: Incomplete shell operator regex in hooks runner
+**Severity:** HIGH | **Category:** Security
+**File:** `src/hooks/runner.ts:111`
+The regex checking for dangerous shell operators omits the backtick character, allowing command substitution via `` `cmd` `` syntax to bypass the safety check.
+**Risk:** Command injection through backtick substitution in hook commands.
+**Fix:** Add backtick to the shell operator regex pattern.
+
+#### SEC-4: Command injection via story content in auto plugin
+**Severity:** HIGH | **Category:** Security
+**File:** `src/interaction/plugins/auto.ts`
+User story content is interpolated into CLI arguments without escaping. A story containing shell metacharacters can inject commands.
+**Risk:** Arbitrary command execution if story content is attacker-controlled.
+**Fix:** Use array-form `Bun.spawn()` instead of shell string interpolation. Escape or validate story content before passing as arguments.
+
+#### SEC-5: --dangerously-skip-permissions hardcoded
+**Severity:** HIGH | **Category:** Security
+**File:** `src/acceptance/generator.ts`, `src/acceptance/fix-generator.ts`
+The `--dangerously-skip-permissions` flag is hardcoded in acceptance prompt generators, bypassing the config gate that should control this setting.
+**Risk:** Agent processes always run with elevated permissions regardless of user config.
+**Fix:** Read from config (`quality.dangerouslySkipPermissions`) and only include the flag when explicitly enabled.
+
+#### BUG-3: Story duration uses run startTime, not story startTime
+**Severity:** HIGH | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/execution/pipeline-result-handler.ts:101,108,176,194,258`
+All story durations are calculated as `Date.now() - startTime` where `startTime` is the run start time, not the individual story's start. Stories after the first report inflated durations that include all prior stories' execution time.
+**Risk:** Incorrect metrics reporting. Makes performance analysis unreliable.
+**Fix:** Track per-story start times and use those for duration calculation.
+
+#### BUG-4: Unguarded prd.userStories[0] access
+**Severity:** HIGH | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/execution/lifecycle/acceptance-loop.ts:172`
+Accesses `prd.userStories[0]` without checking if the array is empty. If no stories remain, this throws a runtime error crashing the acceptance loop.
+**Risk:** Runtime crash on empty story array.
+**Fix:** Guard with `if (prd.userStories.length === 0) return`.
+
+#### BUG-5: revertStoriesOnFailure mutates caller's data
+**Severity:** HIGH | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/execution/post-verify-rectification.ts:154-181`
+Uses `splice()` on `opts.allStoryMetrics` and directly mutates `opts.prd` — violating the project's immutability principle. Callers that retain references see unexpectedly modified data.
+**Risk:** Corrupted state propagating to subsequent pipeline stages.
+**Fix:** Return new arrays/objects instead of mutating. Use spread/filter to create copies.
+
+#### BUG-6: Forbidden Node.js APIs in claude-plan.ts
+**Severity:** HIGH | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/agents/claude-plan.ts`
+Uses `require()`, `readFileSync`, `mkdtempSync`, `rmSync` — all explicitly forbidden by project conventions. These are blocking synchronous calls in an async orchestrator.
+**Risk:** Blocks the event loop during plan execution. Inconsistent with Bun-native runtime.
+**Fix:** Replace with `Bun.file().text()`, `Bun.write()`, `Bun.spawn()`, and async equivalents.
+
+#### MEM-1: Unread stderr pipe blocks child process
+**Severity:** HIGH | **Category:** Memory
+**File:** `src/tui/hooks/usePty.ts:99`
+```typescript
+stderr: "pipe",
+```
+stderr is set to `"pipe"` but never consumed. When the pipe buffer fills (~64KB), the child process blocks on stderr writes, hanging indefinitely.
+**Risk:** Agent processes hang silently when producing stderr output.
+**Fix:** Either consume stderr (stream it alongside stdout) or use `stderr: "inherit"` to forward to parent.
+
+#### MEM-2: Unbounded pendingResponses Map in webhook plugin
+**Severity:** HIGH | **Category:** Memory
+**File:** `src/interaction/plugins/webhook.ts`
+The `pendingResponses` Map grows without bound. If webhooks fail to respond, entries accumulate forever.
+**Risk:** Memory leak proportional to number of unanswered interactions.
+**Fix:** Add TTL-based eviction or max-size cap with LRU eviction.
+
+---
+
+### MEDIUM
+
+#### BUG-7: readFileSync throughout context/injector.ts
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/context/injector.ts:76,103,130,142,177,206`
+Six uses of `readFileSync` — forbidden Node.js API that blocks the event loop.
+**Fix:** Replace with `await Bun.file(path).text()`.
+
+#### BUG-8: setTimeout throughout codebase
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**Files:** `src/verification/executor.ts:21,92,118`, `src/agents/claude.ts:184`, `src/routing/strategies/llm.ts:78-84`, `src/hooks/runner.ts:215`
+Multiple uses of `setTimeout` instead of `Bun.sleep()` — forbidden pattern.
+**Fix:** Replace with `await Bun.sleep(ms)` where applicable.
+
+#### BUG-9: appendFileSync in logger and crash-recovery
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**Files:** `src/logger/logger.ts:154`, `src/execution/crash-recovery.ts:67-68,110-111,282-283,346-347`
+Blocking synchronous file writes in hot paths. Logger calls `appendFileSync` on every log line.
+**Fix:** Use `Bun.write()` with append mode, or buffer writes.
+
+#### BUG-10: Unsafe raceResult cast in executor
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/verification/executor.ts:150`
+```typescript
+const exitCode = raceResult as number;
+```
+If `processPromise` resolves with `undefined` (Bun behavior on signal kill), this cast silently produces `NaN` comparisons.
+**Fix:** Add explicit null/undefined check: `const exitCode = typeof raceResult === "number" ? raceResult : 1`.
+
+#### BUG-11: test -d shell spawning in test-scanner
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/context/test-scanner.ts:171-181`
+Spawns a shell process (`test -d`) to check if a directory exists. Unnecessary and slow.
+**Fix:** Use `Bun.file(path).exists()` or `fs.stat()`.
+
+#### BUG-12: validateRoutingDecision excludes three-session-tdd-lite
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/routing/strategies/llm-prompts.ts:110-116`
+The routing decision validator does not include `"three-session-tdd-lite"` in the valid strategy set, causing this valid strategy to be silently rejected.
+**Fix:** Add `"three-session-tdd-lite"` to the valid strategies array.
+
+#### BUG-13: Byte-offset/character-index mismatch in followLogs
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/commands/logs.ts:320-323`
+Uses byte offset from `Bun.file().size` but character index for string slicing. Multi-byte UTF-8 content (e.g., emojis, CJK) causes garbled output or missed lines.
+**Fix:** Track byte offsets consistently, or read raw buffers and convert.
+
+#### BUG-14: auto interaction plugin receive() always throws
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/interaction/plugins/auto.ts:66-71`
+The `receive()` method unconditionally throws, making the auto plugin non-functional through the interaction chain for any inbound messages.
+**Fix:** Implement proper receive handling or document the throw as intentional with `@design`.
+
+#### BUG-15: savePRD mutates caller's object
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/prd/index.ts:62`
+`savePRD` sets `prd.updatedAt` directly, mutating the caller's reference.
+**Fix:** Create a copy before modification: `const updated = { ...prd, updatedAt: new Date().toISOString() }`.
+
+#### BUG-16: checkPRDValid mutates story objects
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/precheck/checks-blockers.ts:136-140`
+Mutates story objects in-place while a comment says "don't modify the PRD". Also has a triple null check copy-paste bug (`|| testCommand === null || testCommand === null`).
+**Fix:** Use non-mutating approach. Fix duplicate null check.
+
+#### BUG-17: usePipelineEvents startTime causes event listener churn
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/tui/hooks/usePipelineEvents.ts:71,180`
+`startTime = Date.now()` is computed every render and included in `useEffect` deps, causing the effect to re-run and re-register event listeners on every render.
+**Fix:** Use `useRef` for startTime or compute it once with `useState(() => Date.now())`.
+
+#### BUG-18: dispatcher results in completion order, not input order
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/worktree/dispatcher.ts`
+`pLimit` returns results in completion order. If callers expect input-order results, story assignments may be mismatched.
+**Fix:** Map results back to input indices, or document completion-order semantics.
+
+#### BUG-19: getTotalStories getter captures prd before declaration
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/execution/runner.ts:141,152`
+The `getTotalStories` getter closure captures `prd` at line 141, but `prd` is declared at line 152. Due to `let` temporal dead zone rules, accessing the getter before line 152 throws.
+**Fix:** Move the getter definition after `prd` declaration, or restructure.
+
+#### BUG-20: Bun.file() on directory path unreliable
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/interaction/state.ts:148`
+`Bun.file()` is called on a directory path. Behavior is undefined/unreliable for directories.
+**Fix:** Use `readdir` or check `isDirectory()` first.
+
+#### TYPE-1: Duplicate RoutingDecision interface
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Type Safety
+**File:** `src/routing/` (multiple files)
+`RoutingDecision` is defined in two places with subtly different shapes, causing type confusion.
+**Fix:** Consolidate into `src/routing/types.ts` and import from the barrel.
+
+#### PERF-1: existsSync blocking calls
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Performance
+**Files:** `src/execution/pid-registry.ts:82,163`, `src/pipeline/stages/gate.ts`, `src/routing/path-security.ts`
+Synchronous file existence checks block the event loop.
+**Fix:** Use async `Bun.file(path).exists()`.
+
+---
+
+### LOW
+
+#### STYLE-1: Files exceeding 400-line limit
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Style
+**Files:**
+- `src/execution/parallel.ts` (401 lines)
+- `src/config/types.ts` (443 lines)
+- `src/cli/config.ts` (562 lines)
+**Fix:** Split by logical concern. `config.ts` is 162 lines over limit.
+
+#### STYLE-2: Dead code — RunLifecycle class (312 LOC)
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Style
+**File:** `src/execution/lifecycle/run-lifecycle.ts`
+The `RunLifecycle` class duplicates logic now handled by other modules. Not referenced by `runner.ts`.
+**Fix:** Delete the file after confirming no other references.
+
+#### STYLE-3: tryLlmBatchRoute duplicated in 3 locations
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Style
+**Files:** `src/execution/runner.ts`, `src/execution/parallel.ts`, `src/execution/sequential-executor.ts`
+Same function copy-pasted across three files.
+**Fix:** Extract to `src/routing/batch-route.ts` and import from barrel.
+
+#### STYLE-4: console.log/console.error in source files
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Style
+**Files:** `src/logger/logger.ts:70,116,156`, `src/execution/crash-recovery.ts:70,114,134`, `src/plugins/loader.ts:22`, `src/cli/config.ts` (throughout), `src/precheck/index.ts` (throughout), `src/review/runner.ts`, `src/optimizer/index.ts`, `src/tui/features/status-features.ts`
+Forbidden pattern per `.claude/rules/04-forbidden-patterns.md`.
+**Fix:** Replace with project logger (`src/logger`).
+
+#### STYLE-5: Emojis in source code
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Style
+**Files:** `src/logging/types.ts:15-36` (EMOJI constant), `src/tui/components/StoriesPanel.tsx`, `src/interaction/plugins/telegram.ts`, `src/acceptance/generator.ts`
+Violates no-emoji convention.
+**Fix:** Replace with text markers `[OK]`, `[WARN]`, `[FAIL]`, `->`.
+
+#### STYLE-6: Internal path imports instead of barrels
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Style
+**Files:** `src/pipeline/stages/verify.ts`, `src/pipeline/stages/routing.ts`, `src/context/test-scanner.ts`, several others
+Importing from internal paths (`src/routing/router`) instead of barrels (`src/routing`). Risks singleton fragmentation in Bun's module registry (BUG-035).
+**Fix:** Import from barrel `index.ts` files.
+
+#### STYLE-7: .js extension imports
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Style
+**File:** `src/verification/optimizer.ts`
+Uses `.js` file extension in imports, inconsistent with the rest of the codebase which uses extensionless imports.
+**Fix:** Remove `.js` extensions.
+
+#### STYLE-8: Mixed Node.js fs APIs in execution/
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Style
+**Files:** `src/execution/lock.ts` (openSync/writeSync/closeSync), `src/execution/progress.ts` (mkdirSync), `src/execution/queue-handler.ts` (mv/rm subprocess)
+Various forbidden Node.js APIs scattered through execution modules.
+**Fix:** Replace with Bun-native equivalents.
+
+#### ENH-1: Unbounded testOutput in acceptance prompts
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Enhancement
+**File:** `src/acceptance/generator.ts`, `src/acceptance/fix-generator.ts`
+Full test output is injected into prompts with no truncation. Large test suites produce prompts that exceed model context limits.
+**Fix:** Truncate test output to a configurable max (e.g., last 200 lines).
+
+#### ENH-2: costPerMinute returns undefined for non-standard tiers
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Enhancement
+**File:** `src/routing/strategies/`
+The cost calculation function returns `undefined` for tiers not in its lookup table, causing NaN in downstream math.
+**Fix:** Default to 0 or throw for unknown tiers.
+
+#### ENH-3: decompose() has no timeout
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Enhancement
+**File:** `src/agents/claude.ts:241-283`
+The `decompose()` method calls the LLM with no timeout. A hung API call blocks the orchestrator indefinitely.
+**Fix:** Add configurable timeout wrapping the API call.

+## v0.18.5 Addendum — BUN-001 Migration Gaps & _deps Pattern Assessment
+
+*Added: 2026-03-04. Supplements the review above with issues specific to v0.18.5 (node-pty -> Bun.spawn migration) and v0.18.4 (_deps pattern adoption).*
+
+---
+
+### New Findings
+
+#### MEM-3: Unread stderr pipe in runInteractive()
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Memory
+**File:** `src/agents/claude.ts:298`
+
+Same class as MEM-1 (usePty stderr pipe) but in the `runInteractive()` method. `stderr: "pipe"` is set but never consumed. When the pipe buffer fills (~64 KB), the subprocess blocks on stderr writes, hanging indefinitely.
+
+The code comment notes this method is "TUI-only and currently dormant in headless nax runs", which mitigates immediate risk — but the bug activates when TUI mode is re-enabled.
+
+**Fix:** Consume stderr in a parallel IIFE (mirror the stdout loop) or change to `stderr: "inherit"`.
+
+---
+
+#### BUG-21: Fire-and-forget IIFE in runInteractive() has no error handling
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Bug
+**File:** `src/agents/claude.ts:305-309`
+
+```typescript
+(async () => {
+  for await (const chunk of proc.stdout) {
+    options.onOutput(Buffer.from(chunk));
+  }
+})();
+```
+
+The detached async IIFE swallows all errors. A stream error or a throw from `options.onOutput()` becomes an unhandled promise rejection — the caller receives no signal and output silently stops.
+
+**Fix:** Append `.catch((err) => getLogger()?.error("agent", "runInteractive stdout error", { err }))` to the IIFE.
+
+---
+
+#### BUG-22: proc.exited.then() missing .catch() in two locations
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Bug
+**Files:** `src/agents/claude.ts:312`, `src/tui/hooks/usePty.ts:131`
+
+Both call `.then()` on `proc.exited` with no `.catch()`. If `options.onExit()` throws synchronously, or the setState callback in usePty throws (e.g., during unmount), the rejection is unhandled and surfaces as an uncaught promise rejection.
+
+**Fix:** Add `.catch((err) => { /* log */ })` to both `.then()` chains.
+
+---
+
+#### STYLE-9: canSpawnPty = false permanently disables all PTY integration tests
+**Severity:** LOW | **Category:** Style
+**File:** `test/ui/tui-pty-integration.test.tsx`
+
+```typescript
+const canSpawnPty = false; // BUN-001: no PTY — preserved for future re-enablement
+```
+
+All PTY lifecycle tests (spawn, write, resize, kill, exit) are permanently skipped via a hardcoded `false`. There is no issue reference, no `test.todo()`, and no environment gate. PTY integration test coverage is zero with no path to re-enabling it.
+
+**Fix:** Replace with `const canSpawnPty = process.env.RUN_PTY_TESTS === "1"` and file a tracking issue for the test gap.

+
+#### ENH-5: _deps pattern covers 2 of 50+ modules — adoption plan needed
+**Severity:** MEDIUM | **Category:** Enhancement
+**Files:** `src/verification/smart-runner.ts`, `src/pipeline/stages/verify.ts`
+
+**Background:** v0.18.4 commit `8d80158` ("refactor: eliminate mock.module() and fix test architecture debt") introduced the `_deps` dependency injection pattern as the correct replacement for `mock.module()` (globally banned in Bun 1.x). The implementation in `smart-runner.ts` and `verify.ts` is clean and correct — originals are captured before each test and restored in `afterEach`.
+
+**Gap:** ~50+ source modules with non-trivial internal dependencies have no `_deps` export. Tests for those modules must choose between: (a) leaving complex code paths untested, (b) relying on slow integration tests that spawn real processes, or (c) using `mock.module()` in violation of the convention (global ESM registry leak).
+
+**Impact:** The convention exists in `.claude/rules/04-forbidden-patterns.md` but cannot be enforced without the infrastructure to comply. Any contributor writing a new unit test for an un-`_deps`-ified module faces this conflict.
+
+**High-priority candidates for _deps rollout:**
+- `src/routing/strategies/llm.ts` — LLM retry and fallback logic; currently hard to unit test
+- `src/execution/crash-recovery.ts` — crash detection and recovery; complex branching
+- `src/plugins/loader.ts` — dynamic import (also SEC-1); needs path validation testable in isolation
+- `src/agents/claude.ts` — runOnce/runInteractive; timeout and retry logic
+
+**Fix:** Document adoption steps in `.claude/rules/03-test-writing.md` with a tracking section. Prioritize modules with known test gaps (crash-recovery, routing/llm) in the next minor release.

+### Updated Priority Matrix (addendum items only)
+
+| Priority | ID | Effort | Description |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---|
+| P1 | MEM-3 | S | Consume or inherit stderr in runInteractive() |
+| P2 | BUG-21 | S | Add .catch() to stdout IIFE in runInteractive() |
+| P2 | ENH-5 | L | _deps rollout plan — prioritize crash-recovery, llm strategy, plugin loader |
+| P4 | BUG-22 | S | Add .catch() to proc.exited.then() in claude.ts and usePty |
+| P4 | STYLE-9 | S | Gate canSpawnPty on env var, file tracking issue |

+### Updated Summary Statistics
+
+| Category | Count | CRITICAL | HIGH | MEDIUM | LOW |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
+| Security (SEC) | 5 | 2 | 3 | 0 | 0 |
+| Bug (BUG) | 22 | 2 | 2 | 13 | 5 |
+| Memory (MEM) | 3 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 0 |

+| Enhancement (ENH) | 5 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 3 |
+| **Total** | **46** | **4** | **7** | **17** | **18** |
+
+**Overall grade unchanged: C+ (72/100).** The BUN-001 migration in v0.18.5 eliminated the node-pty native build dependency (a concrete improvement) but introduced three new error-handling gaps and permanently skipped all PTY integration tests. The _deps pattern from v0.18.4 is a strong foundation — clean where implemented — but requires a structured rollout to the remaining ~50 modules before it meaningfully reduces test architecture risk.
