What this skill does

Bun Package Manager Bun's package manager is a dramatically faster replacement for npm, yarn, and pnpm. Up to 25x faster than npm install. Quick Start Core Commands Command Description --------- ------------- bun install Install all dependencies bun add <pkg> Add dependency bun add -D <pkg> Add dev dependency bun add -O <pkg> Add optional dependency bun add --peer <pkg> Add peer dependency bun remove <pkg> Remove dependency bun update [pkg] Update dependencies bunx <pkg> Run package binary bun pm cache rm Clear cache Installation Flags Lockfile Bun uses bun.lock (text-based since v1.2): Workspaces (Monorepos) Run commands across workspaces: Lifecycle Scripts Bun does not run lifecycle scripts from dependencies by default (security). Whitelist trusted packages: Overrides & Resolutions Force specific versions for nested dependencies: Yarn-style resolutions also supported: Non-npm Dependencies Installation Strategies Bun 1.3+ default flip: Starting in Bun 1.3, isolated is the default for workspaces (packages can no longer reach undeclared deps through the hoisted root nodemodules). hoisted is now the legacy opt-out — only use it when a workspace package depends on a transitive dep that it doesn't declare. Hoisted (legacy opt-out; still the default for single non-workspace packages) Traditional flat nodemodules: Isolated (default for workspaces in Bun 1.3+) pnpm-like strict isolation: Isolated prevents "phantom dependencies" - packages can only access declared dependencies. …
