Problem

• A connected bun in a VS Code terminal sends every console.* call to the extension, which drops it, and keeps every logged object alive. 100,000 lines are 107 MB of Console.messageAdded frames, and 20,000 logged 10 KB buffers keep a 208 MB heap.
• A logged error prints another stack than outside VS Code, and its diagnostic can go to a file named unknown.
• Cause: handleSocketConnection (packages/bun-vscode/src/features/diagnostics/diagnostics.ts:150) calls the debug adapter's initialize(), which also sends Console.enable and Debugger.setBreakpointsActive. The second makes JavaScriptCore discard compiled code.

Fix

• The socket uses a NodeSocketInspector and sends one request, LifecycleReporter.enable: the only domain the feature reads.
• A process that exits before it answers is logged, not six unhandled rejections.
• Verified: test/integration/bun-vscode/diagnostics-socket.test.ts (new, fails on main). No other suite loads it.
• Self-reviewed: 35 concerns raised, 32 addressed. The three not taken are in Notes, with reasons.

Background

• The extension sets BUN_INSPECT_CONNECT_TO in every integrated terminal. Each bun there connects its inspector to the extension, which shows errors in the editor. An inspector domain is silent until its enable request.
• Considered enableConsole: false: five requests and the code discard stay (2.3x CPU after a warm-up). Considered an adapter-wide opt-in: it changes every debug session.

Downsides

• A script that throws and exits right after it connects shows its error less often (40 of 600 runs against 62). bun does not flush inspector messages at exit (TestReporter inspector events are silently, permanently lost if the process exits before the debugger thread finishes delivering them #34218), and the six requests delayed that exit.
• Debug sessions keep the console stream, and the runtime still charges a connected process 4,901 instructions per console.log (2,578 unconnected).

Notes

How the numbers were taken. The process is bun 1.4.3-canary.1+367d939d9 (release, Linux x64). The extension code runs from main and from this branch with a stand-in for the vscode module. A relay on the socket counts the messages. Where a row says node, the extension runs under node v26.3.0. The process answers the extension's requests before it starts to log. A script that ends before that sends nothing, on main too. The script at the end of these notes prints the first three rows.

• One-shot commands cost the same on main, with enableConsole: false only, and with this PR: tsc --version 1,011M to 1,012M instructions, prettier --check 1,172M to 1,178M, a loop over 2,000 functions 898M to 902M. The code discard costs a process that did work before its first turn of the event loop.
• bun binary: 0 bytes. No file under src/ changes.
• The error of a live process arrives with the one request on bun 1.1.38 (the first release that reads the variable), 1.2.0, 1.2.23, 1.3.0, 1.3.14, 1.4.0 and 1.4.3-canary.1.
• The bundle is built by esbuild with the options of packages/bun-vscode/scripts/build.mjs. ws, @vscode/debugadapter and semver are external in both builds, because this checkout does not install them.
• perf and strace are not on the machine used. A small perf_event_open program counted the instructions of the process and its threads. An LD_PRELOAD counter on libc send and write counted the socket writes.

Why compiled code is discarded. initialize() calls configurationDone() for a client that is not VS Code's debug UI (adapter.ts:531), also with enableDebugger: false. That sends Debugger.setBreakpointsActive. JavaScriptCore's Debugger::setBreakpointsActivated calls recompileAllJSFunctions() when the value changes, and the value starts as false. bun handles the request on a turn of its event loop, so the code of a synchronous start is what it discards.

Why logged objects stay alive and logged errors print differently. With the Console domain on, ConsoleMessage::addToFrontend wraps each argument in the console object group and builds a preview of it. Only a clear of the console releases that group, and the extension never sends one. The preview reads an error's stack. JavaScriptCore then drops the error's structured frames (ErrorInstance::materializeErrorInfoIfNeeded), and bun's printer and LifecycleReporter.error take the frames from the text (src/jsc/bindings/ZigException.cpp:632). With the domain off, JavaScriptCore still keeps the last 100 console messages and their arguments. That is the 92 in the table.

The errors that arrive less often. bun does not wait for its debugger thread when it exits (#34218, open PR #36524). An error that is printed just before the exit reaches the extension only if that thread wins a race. The six requests kept the main thread busy a little longer. With Debugger.setBreakpointsActive sent after the one request, 22 of 300 errors arrive, against 15 of 300 in the same session without it. An error thrown at once never arrives, on main too: the process ends before it handles the request.

The test.

• CI runs only test/. test/integration/bun-lambda already loads a packages/ module from there, and vscode: run package.json scripts from the clicked package #43785 puts tests in test/integration/bun-vscode/.
• The first test uses a real bun behind a relay. It pins the request list, the events that bun sends, the printed stack and the place of the diagnostic. With diagnostics.ts from main all four differ: six requests, four Console.messageAdded events, at URL (unknown:1:1) in the stack, and a diagnostic at unknown:1:1.
• The second test is a peer that closes before it answers. When the socket is reset and not closed, the existing Inspector.error listener also prints the socket error, as on main.
• USE_SYSTEM_BUN=1 cannot show the failure, because the test loads the TypeScript from the tree. With diagnostics.ts from main, both tests fail: 10 of 10 runs on release, and on the debug build.
• Release: 20 of 20 pass. Debug ASAN: 20 of 20, the first run from an empty page cache. At a36e20c, after the last changes to the setup of the test: release 8 of 8, debug ASAN 6 of 6.
• The relay and the process are created at module scope, and afterAll closes them on every path. beforeAll waits for the process with a 60 s deadline. With the start inside the test, the first run of a debug build took 3.6 s to more than 5 s, and two of five such runs passed the 5 s that a test has. The body of the test takes 0.2 to 0.4 s on the debug build.
• A setup step that cannot finish fails with its cause, not with a timeout. This covers a process that dies and a socket that closes before the answer. It also covers a relay that cannot listen and an extension that does not start its socket.
• Seven variants of the change each fail a test: a second request (Console.enable, Inspector.enable, Inspector.initialized), no .catch, an empty .catch, enableConsole: false only, and main.
• tsc reports 0 errors for the new files. For packages/bun-vscode it reports 105 errors on main and 105 on this branch, none in diagnostics.ts (with the extension's type packages installed).
• The extension's own tests (packages/bun-vscode/src/features/tests/__tests__) are not run by CI and do not load diagnostics.ts. 9 to 12 of the 191 fail on main and on this branch alike.

Not in this PR.

• adapter.ts:497 (enableConsole ?? true) and debug.ts are unchanged. Debug sessions send the same six requests, and the adapter's Console.messageAdded handler is empty, so nothing reads the stream there either. [VSCode] Debugger does not log to debug console #14244 asks for that output in attach sessions. initialize() also sends its requests without a .catch for those callers.
• BunDiagnosticsManager.dispose() returns a disposable and closes nothing, so the socket stays open when the extension is deactivated. On macOS and Linux its file then stays in the temporary directory. The test calls the returned disposable.
• A LifecycleReporter.error event that makes handleLifecycleError throw is an uncaught exception in the data listener of the socket. It is the same on main, where the listener runs inside super.emit (adapter.ts:377).
• The extension's framer drops an inspector message over 1 MB (node-socket-framer.ts:57). With this PR only an error event can be that large.
• The variable itself has costs in the runtime that no request list changes. It turns the transpiler cache off (src/runtime/jsc_hooks.rs:687): tsc --version takes 1,012M instructions with the variable set and 142M without it. A connected process builds a ConsoleMessage for each console call (src/jsc/bindings/ConsoleObject.cpp:39): that is the 4,901 against 2,578.
• Nothing in the runtime bounds what bun buffers on this socket (connectToUnixServer in src/js/internal/debugger.ts writes with socket.$write). inspector: give each frontend its own queue and state, drop one that reads nothing #36848 bounds the --inspect WebSocket writer only.
• A copy of the extension that is already installed keeps the six requests. The extension ships by a manual run of .github/workflows/vscode-release.yml, and this PR does not change the version.
• A process started by hand with --inspect-wait=<the diagnostics socket> no longer runs its script: the client does not send Inspector.initialized. On main it ran the script and then did not exit. No code in bun or the extension starts a process that way.
• Users met this console stream before, with bun repl in VS Code terminals: bun repl in VSC terminal messed up #15588, Bun REPL in VS Code terminal on Windows outputs error #17567 and REPL unusable within VSCode's integrated terminal #25389. Those ended with a workaround in bunx and the native bun repl. No report names slow output or memory: this was found by measurement.
• Remove dead code from the build scripts, the vscode and debug-adapter packages, the bake overlay, and two WebCore files #40122 removes dead code in other lines of diagnostics.ts.
• Self-review items not taken: the state of the published copies of the extension (it could not be read from the machine used), the console stream of Bun.WebView (another subsystem, not checked), and whether bun.diagnosticsSocket.enabled stays on by default (a maintainer's decision). The self-review also asked for tracking issues for the items in this list. They are listed here and not filed.

Status: ready for review.

How this was reproduced. The extension's registerDiagnosticsSocket runs under bun test with a stand-in for the vscode module. A relay on its socket records the inspector messages of a real bun process. With diagnostics.ts from main the relay sees six requests, one Console.messageAdded frame for each console.log call, and a diagnostic at unknown:1:1 for a logged error. The new test asserts the same things, and the script at the end of the Notes prints the numbers.

This change reaches users with the next release of the extension (.github/workflows/vscode-release.yml).

CI at a36e20c (build 135311). The diff is green: 186 of 188 jobs pass. The new test passes on Linux (also with ASAN), Windows, macOS x64 and macOS aarch64. The two other jobs are not from this PR:

• One macOS aarch64 shard fails test/aot/build-scaling/build-scaling-2.test.ts (twice as many functions cost 2.50 times the peakBytes; allowed: 2.5). The same test fails on main in build 135281.
• One macOS aarch64 shard got no agent and expired.

CI was not started again. At 01:16 UTC on Oct 30, the macOS x64 test jobs of pull request builds waited more than four hours for an agent.

Walkthrough

The diagnostics socket handler now uses NodeSocketInspector and sends LifecycleReporter.enable after successful startup. Integration tests cover inspector traffic, reported diagnostics, and a client that closes without replying.

Changes

Diagnostics socket handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Inspector startup and lifecycle request packages/bun-vscode/src/features/diagnostics/diagnostics.ts	The handler replaces NodeSocketDebugAdapter with NodeSocketInspector. If startup fails, it shows an inspector-specific error, removes inspector listeners, and returns. After successful startup, it sends LifecycleReporter.enable and logs rejected requests.
Socket integration coverage test/integration/bun-vscode/diagnostics-socket-fixture.ts, test/integration/bun-vscode/diagnostics-socket.test.ts	The fixture serves HTTP requests and logs and rethrows request errors. Tests check inspector traffic, diagnostic messages and locations, output, and behavior when a client closes without replying.

The "What does this PR do?" content is covered by the Problem, Fix, Background, and Downsides sections. The "How did you verify your code works?" content is covered by the test description, the measurement table, and the reported test runs on release and debug ASAN builds. The description is detailed and specific, and it names the files, commands, and measured results. It does not follow the template headings exactly, since it uses Problem, Fix, Background, Downsides, and Notes instead. The template headings are not present as written.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Reject the enable wait when the extension socket closes.

The relay rejects enabled on bun close and on extension error, but not on extension close. If the extension closes its socket without an error before it answers LifecycleReporter.enable, enabled stays pending. beforeAll then fails only at its 60-second timeout.

As per coding guidelines, wire every failure event (error, close, abort, process exit) to reject the awaited promise.

     extension.on("error", enabled.reject);
+    extension.on("close", () => enabled.reject(new Error("the extension closed the inspector socket before it answered")));
     bun.on("close", () => {

[claude]

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the NodeSocketInspector path the extension now uses directly: start() wires error/close so a peer that exits settles the pending LifecycleReporter.enable promise (the .catch logs it instead of hanging or rejecting unhandled), and Inspector.event/Inspector.error/LifecycleReporter.* are emitted by the inspector itself, so the re-registered listeners still fire without the adapter in between. The stale "Failed to start debug adapter" message at diagnostics.ts:140 is a wording leftover only.

Extended reasoning...

The change swaps NodeSocketDebugAdapter for NodeSocketInspector in the VS Code extension's terminal diagnostics socket handler and sends a single LifecycleReporter.enable request, plus two new integration test files under test/integration/bun-vscode. It touches no auth, crypto, or native code; the only new surface is that the extension now listens on the raw inspector without the adapter's wrapping, which is what the inline finding covers. Deferring because inline findings exist and the note only records what else was ruled out.

[robobun]

The review notes that were not inline are handled in 5492163:

• The relay in the test now fails the wait when the extension closes its socket before bun answers, and closes the bun side too.
• The error that the extension shows when the inspector does not start no longer names a debug adapter.

#32546 is not related to this change. That issue is about Debugger.setBreakpointByUrl in a --inspect WebSocket session. This PR only changes what the extension's diagnostics socket requests.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.

Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):

• 🟣 packages/bun-vscode/src/features/diagnostics/diagnostics.ts — pre-existing: when VS Code deactivates the extension, the diagnostics socket server stays open and its tmpdir .sock file is never unlinked, and shown diagnostics are not cleared. BunDiagnosticsManager.dispose() at diagnostics.ts:206-213 only builds a Disposable with vscode.Disposable.from and returns it; VS Code ignores the return value of a subscription's dispose(). The new test documents this at diagnostics-socket.test.ts:105-106 and calls subscription.dispose()?.dispose() instead. Fix: make dispose() itself dispose the editor state and close the signal (call the built disposable, or inline the two calls), then drop the ?.dispose() workaround in the test.

  Why this was flagged

  Trigger: VS Code calls dispose() on every entry of context.subscriptions when the extension deactivates (disable, update, reload); registerDiagnosticsSocket pushes the manager there at diagnostics.ts:251. dispose() at diagnostics.ts:206-213 returns vscode.Disposable.from(this.editorState, { dispose: () => { this.signal.close(); ... } }) and never invokes it, and vscode discards what a subscription's dispose() returns. So EditorStateManager.dispose() at :58-61 does not run, the UnixSignal server listening at signal.ts:47 is never closed, and the randomUnixPath() socket file (signal.ts:80-82) is left in tmpdir, since net only unlinks it on server.close(). The base branch has the same code; the test added by this PR comments on the quirk at diagnostics-socket.test.ts:105 and routes around it with subscription.dispose()?.dispose() at :106 rather than fixing the method.

  Verification: pre-existing. Trigger: VS Code deactivates the extension (disable, update, or window reload). BunDiagnosticsManager.dispose() at diagnostics.ts:206-213 constructs a composite disposable and returns it without ever calling .dispose() on it, and VS Code discards the return value of a subscription's dispose(). The base commit has byte-identical code, so this is not a regression.

The note about dispose() is correct. This PR does not change that method, and the code is the same on main.

• BunDiagnosticsManager.dispose() returns the disposable that closes the socket. VS Code does not use a value that dispose() returns, so nothing closes the server when the extension is deactivated.
• The effect: the server listens until the extension host exits. On macOS and Linux the socket file then stays in the temporary directory. Node removes that file in server.close(). I checked with node v26.3.0: the file is gone after close(), and it stays when the process exits without one.
• The item is in the "Not in this PR" list of the description. No tracking issue exists for it.
• The test calls the returned disposable with ?., so it stays correct when dispose() closes the socket itself.

If a maintainer wants the change in this PR, it is a small change in dispose() and a test for it.
