bun

A JavaScript and TypeScript runtime with built-in tools for installing packages, bundling code, running tests, serving HTTP, and working with files and databases. It is an alternative to using several separate tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run JavaScript or TypeScript, manage packages, bundle applications, run tests, create servers, use SQLite, work with S3 or Redis, and write shell scripts.
Why use it?
It gives JavaScript and TypeScript projects one toolkit for common development tasks. This can reduce the number of separate commands and tools you need to configure.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

bun scanned grade A with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

bun is a skill published in the GitHub repository itechmeat/llm-code (22 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 111 tokens to every session and 1,861 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 2 findings (makes network calls, runs shell commands). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
