typescript: match tsc for experimentalDecorators and emitDecoratorMetadata - #46553
A TypeScript class with experimentalDecorators / emitDecoratorMetadata now runs the same as the JavaScript that TypeScript emits for it one file at a time (isolatedModules). useDefineForClassFields: false now also applies to static fields and to classes with computed keys.
Metadata.design:type, design:paramtypes and design:returntype follow TypeScript's serializer. The parser answers what one file's syntax decides, and the type checker answers the rest once per file, through a link-time hook so that bun_js_parser does not depend on bun_sema.
Class lowering (new lower/lower_class.rs, after tsc and esbuild):
before
now
@d x = 1, @d y?: T
assigned in the constructor, y dropped
stay fields, in order
@replace class A { m() { A } }
A is the old class
the class the decorator returned
@d [k()]() {}
k() runs twice
once
@A.#p m() {}, m(@f(await x) a)
syntax error
works
useDefineForClassFields: false
ignored for statics, and for the class if a field has a computed key
strictNullChecks is read, from itself or from strict, and is on when neither is set, as in TypeScript 7 and bun check. With it string | null is Object, where it was String. "strictNullChecks": false gives the old result.
A decorated field is defined, not assigned, as tsc does. It now hides an accessor or a default that its decorator put on the prototype, overwrites a value the base constructor set, skips an inherited setter, and is an own undefined property without an initializer. useDefineForClassFields: false, or declare on the field, gives the old result.
useDefineForClassFields defaults to false when target is below ES2022, as tsc does. bun run takes this from the tsconfig of the working directory for every file, as it already does for jsx, the decorator options and an explicit useDefineForClassFields, so a target there now also reaches a package or a directory with its own tsconfig. bun build uses each file's own.
An imported type that isn't a function at run time is Object. A local enum is Number, String or Object, and a local alias is resolved.
An import named only as X[] or X | null in a decorated signature is dropped. verbatimModuleSyntax, which would keep it, is not implemented.
Where useDefineForClassFields: false does not reach. A class with standard decorators keeps its fields, as before. A computed key moves with its field if it is made of names, members, calls, new, operators, conditions, templates, literals, arrays and function expressions. With anything else in a key (this, await, an arrow function, a class, an object literal), or in a class expression that is in a parameter default or a field initializer, the static or the instance fields of that class stay fields, as before. The two kinds are decided separately, and a decorated field with a plain key is always assigned. Static fields named name, length, caller or arguments also stay fields: a class cannot assign to them, and tsc rejects them (TS2699). So does a static field with an initializer and a computed key that is not a constant, because the key can evaluate to one of these names.
Tree shaking with useDefineForClassFields: false: an unused class is still removed, unless it has a static field and either extends or has a static accessor (the assignment can call a setter), or a field has a computed key that is not a constant. An unused class with a hand-written static { this.x = 1; } is removed by the same rule, in JavaScript too.
Also fixed:experimentalDecorators in a tsconfig that extends another was ignored, and emitDecoratorMetadata: false could not override the one it extends. A file with one used and one unused import a = b.c ran its last statement twice. With --minify-syntax, removing an unused import a = b.c also removed the const next to it. A class exported from one namespace block, named as a decorated type and then used as a value in another block, printed __INVALID__REF__.
Housekeeping: the transpiler cache version is bumped. Bun.TSConfig and docs/runtime/typescript.mdx describe the options above. The "decorators random" block of decorators.test.ts is now the case "decorators define accessors for fields of each kind", compared with tsc in both modes.
Behaviour changes
1,092 programs under 19 tsconfigs, run directly and bundled, on the merge base and on this branch. Right is what tsc 7's output does on Node, or the source's own meaning where that output throws or does not parse, or tsc rejects the source.

The third row:
Two are classes with a key that cannot move. The fields of the other kind are now assigned, and those that stay do what they did with useDefineForClassFields: false before.
One is a static field whose key is an object with a toString. The field stays, so its key is converted where it stands, as before, and the keys of the instance fields when the constructor runs, as with tsc.
One is class A { @d b: Later | null } class Later {}, not bundled. tsc's output throws a ReferenceError for a neighbouring @d a: Later, and Bun still does not. b was Later and is now Object.
Not in these programs, and different from before: static set x(v) {} next to static x = 1 (TS2300) calls the setter, and throws a ReferenceError with bun run if the setter reads a const of the file. eval("super()") in a constructor leaves the fields unset, where it threw. A variable of the file named like a generated one (v$1, __super$1) can collide with it with bun run.
How did you verify your code works?
449 metadata programs (both strictNullChecks values) and 245 class programs (run directly and bundled) are compiled by tsc, run on Node, and compared with Bun's output in decorator-metadata.test.ts and decorators.test.ts: no differences with bun bd test, failures with USE_SYSTEM_BUN=1. 24 of the class programs have fixed expectations instead, because tsc's output is wrong or does not parse, or tsc rejects the source. These tests are skipped where tsc or node is missing.
It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The PR adds TypeScript decorator metadata analysis and emission, updates legacy decorator and class-field lowering, and propagates strictNullChecks and class-field settings through parsing and transpilation. It also changes unused TypeScript import-equals scanning and expands related tests and documentation.
AST metadata and class state now include structured type information and private-name tracking. Effective class-field and strict-null-check settings flow through resolver, bundler, runtime, and parser options.
Type metadata parsing and classification src/js_parser/parse/*, src/js_parser/p.rs, src/sema/check/*, src/sema/driver/*
Type parsing records metadata for structural types and references, and registers type-name declarations. The checker classifies references used by decorated signatures, and the metadata driver returns those classifications.
Class and decorator lowering src/js_parser/lower/*, src/js_parser/visit/*, src/js_parser/p.rs, src/ast/stmt.rs
Class lowering handles parameter properties, field initializers, constructor effects, legacy decorators, and metadata expressions. Visitor tracking supplies class, private-name, and constructor state to the lowering paths.
Tests add TypeScript differential comparisons, generated decorator case matrices, tsconfig inheritance coverage, and deep-type cases. Related metadata expectations are updated.
A reusable scan removes unused import-equals statements and handles nested property accesses and additional identifier forms. Import-equals locals are not merged with other declarations.

oven-sh/bun#46730: Changes the same insert_after_super decorator-lowering helper.

Provide __bun_check_decorator_metadata for standalone parser targets.
bun_js_parser calls this external symbol from check_type_reference. Its test and benchmark targets do not link bun_sema_driver, which provides the only inspected definition. A target that retains this parser code can fail at link time even when no input reaches the decorator branch.
Ensure each supported target links the provider. If adding the dependency to every parser consumer is too costly, move the checker to a dependency-neutral crate.

Move the non-generic part of is_unused_ts_import_equals into a helper to fix the mordant CI failure.
The mordant lint reports generic_body_not_generic for this function. 27 of its 70 MIR statements do not use TYPESCRIPT or SCAN_ONLY, and the baseline allows 0 findings. The Rust lints job therefore fails.
Two parts do not depend on the parser type:
the origin and is_export checks;
the EDot walk that resolves value_ref and the binding ref.
Move them into a free, non-generic function. Keep only the p.symbols lookup and the p.ignore_usage call in the generic method.

Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):
🔴 src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs — With emitDecoratorMetadata, a decorated signature whose type resolves deeply can now crash bun run with a native stack overflow instead of transpiling. decorator_metadata.rs:1030 runs the type checker on a 4 MB WorkPool thread with no stack budget, so Checker keeps its default stack_limit of 6 << 20 (check/mod.rs:1031) and is_stack_low (mod.rs:2232) cannot fire before the guard page. Every other driver calls begin_stack_budget first. Fix: before decorator_metadata_references, set the limit from the stack actually left on this thread (StackCheck::init().remaining() minus a margin; begin_stack_budget's 3 MB assert would itself abort) and answer Unknown when take_ran_out_of_stack is set. [also at: src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs:105 - Users whose decorated class members name local types that make the type checker recurse deeply can get a native stack overflow (SIGSEGV) from bun build/bun run, where the base branch transpiled the file. src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs:105 runs decorator_metadata_references on a checker…]
Why this was flagged
The trigger is a TypeScript file with experimentalDecorators and emitDecoratorMetadata where a decorated member's annotation names a local interface, enum, type alias or type parameter (src/js_parser/lower/decorator_metadata.rs:321-331) whose declared type or assignability check recurses deeply. The call arrives through __bun_check_decorator_metadata from the js_parser visit pass, which runs on WorkPool threads whose stack is DEFAULT_THREAD_STACK_SIZE = 4 MB (ThreadPool.rs:742-744), and the parser has already used part of it. src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs:1030 calls program.checker() and never begin_stack_budget(); checker_reusing leaves stack_limit = 6 << 20 (check/mod.rs:1030-1031). The checker's only recursion guards are relative to that limit: is_stack_low (mod.rs:2229-2240, checked on every enter at mod.rs:2275). With a 6 MB limit on a 4 MB thread none of them can trigger before the guard page, so the process dies with SIGSEGV. bun check calls begin_stack_budget at driver/lib.rs:4114 and 4771, getting a graceful ran_out_of_stack instead. The base branch never ran the checker from the transpiler, so this input transpiled.
Verification: The trigger is a decorated member annotation naming a local type (src/js_parser/lower/decorator_metadata.rs:315-320) whose resolution recurses deeply. src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs:105-106 uses the Checker with no begin_stack_budget() call. check/mod.rs:1030-1031 sets stack_limit: 6 << 20 on a 4 MB pool thread, so is_stack_low can never be true before the guard page; a deep chain overflows the native stack (SIGSEGV) instead of degrading to Unknown.

🟡 (optional) Users running or bundling TypeScript with emitDecoratorMetadata now pay a full type-checker build per file whenever a decorated signature names a local type or non-class value, on the JS thread and on every bundler worker; the base answered from parser state alone. decorator_metadata.rs:102-107 creates a fresh Session, loads and parses the file again, binds and checks it, then program.release(), once per file per transpile, and each thread's ThreadCaches scratch is retained until thread exit. Fix: bound the work (reuse one Session per thread or skip the checker when the reference set is empty) and measure transpile time for a large decorated file before and after.
Why this was flagged
Trigger: any file with emitDecoratorMetadata where a decorated member or parameter type is a name declared in the same file as a type (interface, type alias, enum, type parameter, type-only import) or a non-class value; check_type_reference's _ arm at src/js_parser/lower/decorator_metadata.rs:315-320 calls __bun_check_decorator_metadata once per file. That function at src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs:102-107 constructs Session::new(), Files::load, Program::new and runs checker().decorator_metadata_references, i.e. a second parse plus bind plus check of the whole file, for every transpile including the runtime transpiler path on the JS thread and on each bundler worker thread. The base branch's old serialize_metadata in p.rs did no second parse. A transpile-time regression on large decorated files is user-visible. Remedy: cache or reuse the Session per thread and avoid the checker when the fast-path answers suffice.
Verification:src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs:102-107 does, per file per transpile: Session::new(), Files::load(...), Program::new, a checker() and decorator_metadata_references. The base branch's serialize_metadata (base p.rs:7804-7853) only did find_symbol/record_usage/maybe_defined_helper on parser symbols, so this is new work on every affected file.
This PR and #36143 change the same code: the removal of an unused import a = b.c in P::to_ast (src/js_parser/p.rs) and in ImportScanner (src/js_parser/scan/scan_imports.rs). The two branches conflict in those two files, and both make the same four edits to test/bundler/esbuild/ts.test.ts. #36143 is on hold until a maintainer picks the order. The details are in #36143 (comment).
One case gets worse with this PR. The new EImportIdentifier arm in is_unused_ts_import_equals also removes an alias whose root is an import binding. With --minify-syntax, or with new Bun.Transpiler({ target: "bun" }), adjacent declarations merge before the removal, and the removal reads only the first declaration. The const after the alias goes with it.
bun build --no-bundle --minify-syntax imported.ts:
Build
Output
1.4.3-canary 367d939d9
const Unused = NS.foo, port = 3000;
main 5c6d4e24cd + 4264b2c8b1
No const. The output throws ReferenceError: port is not defined.
Main has the same fault today when the root is a local namespace (namespace Cfg { export const v = 1 }, then import Unused = Cfg.v;). This PR extends it to import bindings.
Two cases stay as they are on main.#36143 fixes them, because it removes the aliases before the import scan and before the merge.
import { NS } from "./types"; import Foo = NS.Foo;, where NS has only types, fails with SyntaxError: Export named 'NS' not found in module.
The local namespace case above.
The transpiler cache.EXPECTED_VERSION in src/jsc/RuntimeTranspilerCache.rs stays 43 here. The cache entry of a file that ran its last statements twice holds the repeated statements: the .pile file that the canary wrote for such a file has both copies. The loader accepts an entry when the version, the input hash and the features hash match (read from the code, not run). So a file of 4 KiB or more keeps the double run until its content changes.
Question: which order do you want? My default is that this PR lands first, and I cut #36143 again on top of it as the follow-up for the cases above.
Update, 2026-10-24.3199d99006 fixes the case above. On main 179664ea89 merged with 77bf9b2c0e, the import binding program and the local namespace program both keep const port. EXPECTED_VERSION is 44 now. The first of the "two cases" still fails on that build, and so does one more that this comment did not list: in the dev server, import Inner = NS.Inner; import Baz = Inner.Baz; removes only Baz, and Inner then throws when NS has only types.
Update, 2026-10-28. Main has a fix for the double run since 8d5672c552 (#45631): one parts.set_len(parts_end) line inside the repeat loop of P::to_ast. #36143 does not come back on top of this PR: I asked for it to be closed. The first of the "two cases" and the dev server case are still open on main, and this PR does not change them. The details are in #36143 (comment).

Traverse nested type nodes without recursive calls.
If a decorated class member has a deeply nested array type such as T[][]…, reachable_type_references recurses once per array node. The parser can build this chain without a corresponding depth bound, as noted in src/sema/check/check_source_file.rs. The collector can exhaust the native stack before Checker::take_ran_out_of_stack runs. Use an explicit worklist for the type-node traversal.

Keep the primary path's effective compiler settings.

A secondary config with no explicit class-field or strictness setting now writes its default true or false over the primary path's setting. This can change the lowering of the primary file. Select these effective settings for the path that will be parsed instead of overwriting them while iterating fallback paths.

🟣 pre-existing, not blocking: pre-existing: a derived class with standard decorators, a parameter property and a super() that is not a top-level statement still throws on construction; the new super shim fixes the parameter property but not the decorator initializers. At lower_decorators.rs:1378 the standard lowering inserts __runInitializers(_init, n, this) with insert_after_super, which finds no super() once visit_expr.rs:1972 has renamed every call to __super(), so it lands at body index 0, before the var __super shim and before any super call. Fix: when a super shim exists for the class, route the standard lowering's constructor effects through the shim (or after the shim's first call) instead of body index 0, so every this-using effect runs after super() regardless of where the call sits. A small fix can ride a push you are already making; otherwise a short reply is enough.
Why this was flagged
Input (no experimentalDecorators, so standard decorators): class B extends A { @ dec x = 1; constructor(public y: number) { if (f) super(1); else super(2); } }. super_shim_of (lower_class.rs:145-161) returns a shim because y is a parameter property and has_super_statement finds no top-level super(); visiting the constructor turns both calls into __super(...) (visit_expr.rs:1972-1974); lower_class_fields puts this.y = y in the shim at body index 0 (lower_class.rs:373-374). lower_class then runs lower_class_body: the decorated field's extra initializer becomes constructor_effects (1357), and lower_decorators.rs:1378 calls insert_after_super, whose insert_after_super_in finds no stmt with is_super_call, so lower_decorators.rs:96-98 inserts __runInitializers(_init, 3, this) at index 0, ahead of var __super. new B(1) throws ReferenceError for this before super. The base branch failed the same way, so this is pre-existing; the diff's shim fixes only the lower_class_fields effects, not the sibling site in the standard-decorator lowering.
Verification: pre-existing. Trigger: a class under standard decorators that extends, has a decorated instance field, and a super() that is not a top-level statement. insert_after_super_in (lower_decorators.rs:121-139) only matches stmt.is_super_call(), so line 157 inserts at index 0: ReferenceError on construction. The base insert_after_super already landed the decorator initializer at index 0.

Preserve static assignments that can call inherited setters.
If code installs a setter on Function.prototype, class Unused { static { this.x = 1 } } calls that setter even though the class has no extends clause or own static accessor. The new shortcut treats the assignment as removable because it checks only 1. Tree shaking can then remove the setter call. Treat the this assignment as effectful unless the target property is known not to invoke a setter.

Not changed: a setter that code puts on Function.prototype is the one case left, and counting it would keep every unused class with a static field when useDefineForClassFields is false.

@dylan-conway Understood. Ignoring setters added to Function.prototype is an intentional tree-shaking tradeoff here. The code already disables the shortcut for classes with extends or own static accessors. I won’t press for this change.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the cross-crate link-time hook for a signature mismatch: the unsafe extern "Rust" declaration in src/js_parser/lower/decorator_metadata.rs:17-21 and the #[unsafe(no_mangle)] definition in src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs:75-79 agree parameter-by-parameter and both use the single CheckedTypeReference type from src/ast/ts.rs:233, so there is no ABI divergence there.
Extended reasoning...
This run's inline findings cover the tsconfig strictNullChecks default, static name/length fields under useDefineForClassFields false, and the import-equals scan path; the only additional item examined here was the parser-to-sema link-time hook, whose two declarations match exactly and share one struct definition.
The last 3 reviews of this pull request each found new blocking issues, repeatedly in src/resolver/tsconfig_json.rs. Where they share a root cause, one fix may close them together.

🟣 pre-existing, not blocking: pre-existing: a TypeScript file whose only use of import { Ns } from "./m" is an unused import T = Ns.X still loads with that named import, and fails if ./m has no runtime export Ns. should_remove_ts_import_equals at scan_imports.rs:52-67 drops the alias and calls p.ignore_usage(target) only after the import { Ns } statement was already scanned with use count 1 at scan_imports.rs:301, and the new rescan loop at p.rs:8217-8235 only re-checks import-equals statements, never that import. Fix: after an alias removal takes an import binding's use count to 0, re-apply the unused-import trimming to the import statement that declares it (drop the binding or the whole statement, as tsc elides it), on both the first pass and the rescan loop. A small fix can ride a push you are already making; otherwise a short reply is enough.
Why this was flagged
Input (bun run or bun build, TS loader): import { Types } from "./types"; import T = Types.T; let t: T; where types.ts only has export namespace Types { export type T = string }. The visit pass records a use of Types for the alias value, so when ImportScanner::scan reaches the import statement, removable!(ref) at src/js_parser/scan/scan_imports.rs:216 and :301 sees use_count_estimate 1 and keeps the Types item. The later import T = Types.T statement is removed by should_remove_ts_import_equals (scan_imports.rs:52-67), which decrements Types to 0 only then. The rescan at src/js_parser/p.rs:8217-8235 runs scan_for_unused_ts_import_equals, which looks only at SLocal import-equals statements (scan_imports.rs:71-91), so the import statement is never re-trimmed. Output keeps import { Types } from "./types", and Bun's ESM linker throws SyntaxError for the missing export Types; tsc elides both the alias and the import. The base branch produced the same leftover import, so this is pre-existing in code the diff rewrote.
Verification: pre-existing. Trigger: a TypeScript file whose only reference to a named import is an unused import T = Ns.X alias, where the imported module has no runtime export of that name. Only later does the SLocal arm at :728 call should_remove_ts_import_equals (:53-68), which drops the alias and calls p.ignore_usage(target) at src/js_parser/scan/scan_imports.rs:65, after the import statement's decision was already made.
A note on overlap with #46938. That pull request registers the closure argument of a TypeScript namespace block, so that Z.Q from a sibling block folds in an enum initializer.
Both pull requests set EXPECTED_VERSION to 44 in src/jsc/RuntimeTranspilerCache.rs. The second one to land needs 45. No other line is shared.
A shape that this pull request should repair, with no test for it yet. With emitDecoratorMetadata on main 179664e:
bun build prints M.k = new __INVALID__REF__.K;, --no-bundle prints new dec.K, and a debug build stops at panic: assertion failed: !ref_.is_empty(). The parse-pass find_symbol in parse_skip_typescript.rs makes the proxy for K before the block has its closure argument. This pull request removes those three calls. I read the diff and did not build it. decorator-metadata-cases.ts has the type position (scope/namespace, exported from another block) and no value read after it.
Match TypeScript’s output when direct eval is present.
rename_constructor_variables changes constructor parameter v to a numbered name after moving x = v into the constructor. Direct eval("v") remains unchanged, so it reads the outer binding.
TypeScript emits constructor(v) { this.x = v; console.log(eval("v")); } for this input, although it reports TS2301. Make the rename direct-eval-aware and retain the original parameter spelling for this case. Preserving the outer initializer capture would not match TypeScript’s per-file output.

🔴 Users who run bun run or bun test from a directory whose tsconfig has a target below ES2022 now get [[Set]] class-field lowering in every file, including packages whose own tsconfig sets useDefineForClassFields: true. transpiler.rs:625-627 copies the top-level tsconfig's effective value into transpiler.options, which RuntimeTranspilerStore.rs:829 and jsc_hooks.rs:2647 apply to all files. The PR calls this intended, but on base only an explicit root useDefineForClassFields: false reached other packages; target is far more common (tsc --init, NestJS). Fix: in the runtime derive the target default only for files whose enclosing tsconfig has no explicit useDefineForClassFields, or read the flag per file as bun build does through ResultFlags.
Why this was flagged
Trigger: a monorepo root tsconfig.json with "target": "ES2017" and no useDefineForClassFields key, plus a package tsconfig with "useDefineForClassFields": true; the user runs bun run packages/app/src/main.ts or bun test from the root. src/bundler/transpiler.rs:618-627 reads only the top-level directory's tsconfig and now sets options.use_define_for_class_fields = tsconfig.use_define_for_class_fields(), which src/resolver/tsconfig_json.rs:223-227 resolves to false from target. src/jsc/RuntimeTranspilerStore.rs:829 and src/runtime/jsc_hooks.rs:2646-2648 pass that single value to every transpiled file, so the package's explicit true is never consulted. lower_class.rs:307-483 then turns x = 1 into this.x = 1 and drops y: T; from the package's classes. On base, transpiler.rs only overrode the option when the root set useDefineForClassFields explicitly, so this root left the package with define semantics. The PR description acknowledges bun run uses the working-directory tsconfig, but the population now affected is every project with a sub-ES2022 target, not only the rare explicit false.
Verification: src/bundler/transpiler.rs:616-627 reads only the top-level directory's tsconfig and now unconditionally writes self.options.use_define_for_class_fields = tsconfig.use_define_for_class_fields();. On base this was if let Some(v) = tsconfig.use_define_for_class_fields { ... }, so only an explicit key reached options. No per-file tsconfig lookup exists on this path.

🟣 pre-existing, not blocking: pre-existing: with emitDecoratorMetadata, a decorated member typed ReadonlyArray<T> or with a local alias to an array type (type Ids = number[]) gets design:type Object, where tsc with its default lib emits Array. The one-file checker runs with no_lib: true at src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs:85, so Array/ReadonlyArray resolve to nothing and the serializer falls back to Object. Fix: give the metadata checker the array globals (a minimal built-in lib for Array, ReadonlyArray, Promise), or treat an array type node whose global is missing as ArrayLikeType, so every lib-dependent kind matches tsc with lib; and run the differential tsc without noLib so the gap is visible. A small fix can ride a push you are already making; otherwise a short reply is enough.
Why this was flagged
Input: a file with experimentalDecorators + emitDecoratorMetadata containing type Ids = number[]; class A { @ d ids: Ids; @ d ro: ReadonlyArray<string>; }. For Ids, src/js_parser/lower/decorator_metadata.rs:302-322 calls __bun_check_decorator_metadata, which builds the program with no_lib: true (src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs:85-87). The alias's array type goes through src/sema/check/decl.rs:2980-2982 where global_array_type is None and the type becomes TypeId::EMPTY_OBJECT; in src/sema/check/decorator_metadata.rs:160-171 is_tuple and is_array are false, so the kind is ObjectType and Object is emitted. For ReadonlyArray<string>, the fast path at decorator_metadata.rs:303 returns Unknown, i.e. Object at runtime. tsc with lib returns ArrayLikeType for both and emits Array. The base branch also emitted Object here, so this is pre-existing. The differential test cannot see it because test/bundler/transpiler/decorator-differential.ts:85 runs tsc with noLib: true, under which tsc also degrades to Object.
Verification: pre-existing. A decorated member typed with a local alias to an array type or ReadonlyArray<T> under emitDecoratorMetadata: tsc with its default lib emits Array; Bun emits Object. src/sema/driver/decorator_metadata.rs:85 sets no_lib: true, so number[] returns EMPTY_OBJECT at src/sema/check/decl.rs:2978-2982. test/bundler/transpiler/decorator-differential.ts:85 runs tsc with noLib: true. The base also emitted Object.
The bitwise copy of each Part let the repeat loop scan that Part again.
The repeat loop is gone, so the loop takes each Part out of the list and
puts it back.
The loop body is the one of #46553.

A note on overlap. This PR needs no change for it.
I have a branch that decides what becomes of an unexported import a = b.c in the visit pass, before the import scan: robobun/8690e4d9/defer-ts-import-equals-visit. The visit leaves b.c unvisited until the end of the statement list, and visits it only if a value reads a. It also handles two shapes that fail on main:
A namespace body, where the alias always prints. namespace N { export type T = number } namespace M { import T = N.T; export const x: T = 1 } fails with ReferenceError: N is not defined.
import { NS } from "./types"; import Foo = NS.Foo; where NS has only types. It fails with bun run (SyntaxError: Export named 'NS' not found), with bun build and in the dev server.
The branch has no PR, and it waits for this one. On main, a type in a decorated signature is not a read of an alias that is declared below the class. So the branch alone prints Object for design:paramtypes where main prints the class, in a namespace body. keep_import_of_type in this PR records that read at the visit. I read that in the diff and did not build the two together.
After this PR lands, I rebase the branch and open the PR. It then deletes what no alias reaches any more:
ts_import_equals, should_remove_ts_import_equals, scan_for_unused_ts_import_equals and the two flags in src/js_parser/scan/scan_imports.rs
the import-equals guard in Local::can_merge_with (src/ast/s.rs)
the while kept_import_equals && removed_import_equals loop in P::to_ast
This replaces the plan in my comment of 2026-10-23 (a new cut of #36143).
A note on the __super helper of this PR. JavaScriptCore has a fault in the shape that the helper makes, and the fix needs a decision.
What breaks. When a super() of the source is in an arrow function of the constructor, that arrow function calls __super() after the lowering and no longer has a super() of its own. Its next read of this throws on the pinned engine. This is the lowered form written by hand, because I did not build this branch:
Bun 1.4.3: ReferenceError: 'super()' must be called in derived constructor before accessing |this| or returning non-object.
Node v26.3.0: {"x":1,"y":2}
The source form (x = 1; as a field, super() in init) prints {"x":1,"y":2} on Bun 1.4.3.
A super() in the body of the constructor is not affected.
The helper is also slow. The DFG compiles an arrow function that calls super() again and again: 8 compiles and 25,508 exits in 60,000 constructions. A construction takes 1073 instructions. With the two fixes below it takes 80.
@dylan-conway: the question is the venue. The code is upstream JavaScriptCore's, and I cannot file the changes on WebKit/WebKit. Does the fork take oven-sh/WebKit#1018 first, so that this PR can rely on it, or does this wait for upstream? The same question is on that PR for @sosukesuzuki. The Bun PR that pins its preview build, with the tests, is #48304.

What does this PR do?
A TypeScript class with
experimentalDecorators/emitDecoratorMetadatanow runs the same as the JavaScript that TypeScript emits for it one file at a time (isolatedModules).useDefineForClassFields: falsenow also applies to static fields and to classes with computed keys.Metadata.
design:type,design:paramtypesanddesign:returntypefollow TypeScript's serializer. The parser answers what one file's syntax decides, and the type checker answers the rest once per file, through a link-time hook so thatbun_js_parserdoes not depend onbun_sema.Class lowering (new
lower/lower_class.rs, after tsc and esbuild):@d x = 1,@d y?: Tydropped@replace class A { m() { A } }Ais the old class@d [k()]() {}k()runs twice@A.#p m() {},m(@f(await x) a)useDefineForClassFields: falseconstructor(public p) { try { super(); } catch {} },if (c) super(1); else super(2);pand the fields are set wheneversuper()returnsChanges to know about
strictNullChecksis read, from itself or fromstrict, and is on when neither is set, as in TypeScript 7 andbun check. With itstring | nullisObject, where it wasString."strictNullChecks": falsegives the old result.undefinedproperty without an initializer.useDefineForClassFields: false, ordeclareon the field, gives the old result.useDefineForClassFieldsdefaults tofalsewhentargetis below ES2022, as tsc does.bun runtakes this from the tsconfig of the working directory for every file, as it already does forjsx, the decorator options and an explicituseDefineForClassFields, so atargetthere now also reaches a package or a directory with its own tsconfig.bun builduses each file's own.Object. A local enum isNumber,StringorObject, and a local alias is resolved.X[]orX | nullin a decorated signature is dropped.verbatimModuleSyntax, which would keep it, is not implemented.Where
useDefineForClassFields: falsedoes not reach. A class with standard decorators keeps its fields, as before. A computed key moves with its field if it is made of names, members, calls,new, operators, conditions, templates, literals, arrays andfunctionexpressions. With anything else in a key (this,await, an arrow function, a class, an object literal), or in a class expression that is in a parameter default or a field initializer, the static or the instance fields of that class stay fields, as before. The two kinds are decided separately, and a decorated field with a plain key is always assigned. Static fields namedname,length,callerorargumentsalso stay fields: a class cannot assign to them, and tsc rejects them (TS2699). So does a static field with an initializer and a computed key that is not a constant, because the key can evaluate to one of these names.Tree shaking with
useDefineForClassFields: false: an unused class is still removed, unless it has a static field and eitherextendsor has a static accessor (the assignment can call a setter), or a field has a computed key that is not a constant. An unused class with a hand-writtenstatic { this.x = 1; }is removed by the same rule, in JavaScript too.Also fixed:
experimentalDecoratorsin a tsconfig thatextendsanother was ignored, andemitDecoratorMetadata: falsecould not override the one it extends. A file with one used and one unusedimport a = b.cran its last statement twice. With--minify-syntax, removing an unusedimport a = b.calso removed theconstnext to it. A class exported from onenamespaceblock, named as a decorated type and then used as a value in another block, printed__INVALID__REF__.Housekeeping: the transpiler cache version is bumped.
Bun.TSConfiganddocs/runtime/typescript.mdxdescribe the options above. The "decorators random" block ofdecorators.test.tsis now the case "decorators define accessors for fields of each kind", compared with tsc in both modes.Behaviour changes
1,092 programs under 19 tsconfigs, run directly and bundled, on the merge base and on this branch. Right is what tsc 7's output does on Node, or the source's own meaning where that output throws or does not parse, or tsc rejects the source.
The third row:
useDefineForClassFields: falsebefore.toString. The field stays, so its key is converted where it stands, as before, and the keys of the instance fields when the constructor runs, as with tsc.class A { @d b: Later | null } class Later {}, not bundled. tsc's output throws a ReferenceError for a neighbouring@d a: Later, and Bun still does not.bwasLaterand is nowObject.Not in these programs, and different from before:
static set x(v) {}next tostatic x = 1(TS2300) calls the setter, and throws a ReferenceError withbun runif the setter reads aconstof the file.eval("super()")in a constructor leaves the fields unset, where it threw. A variable of the file named like a generated one (v$1,__super$1) can collide with it withbun run.How did you verify your code works?
449 metadata programs (both
strictNullChecksvalues) and 245 class programs (run directly and bundled) are compiled bytsc, run on Node, and compared with Bun's output indecorator-metadata.test.tsanddecorators.test.ts: no differences withbun bd test, failures withUSE_SYSTEM_BUN=1. 24 of the class programs have fixed expectations instead, because tsc's output is wrong or does not parse, or tsc rejects the source. These tests are skipped wheretscornodeis missing.
