Why does it flag dependencies in my root package.json?

In a Bun monorepo, dependencies should typically be declared within specific workspaces to maintain isolation and prevent hoisting issues.

What versions of Bun does this skill support?

The skill is optimized for Bun 1.3 and higher, specifically checking for modern features like dependency catalogs and strict workspace isolation.

Can I use this in my GitHub Actions?

Yes, the validator includes a strict mode and CI flag specifically designed for integration into automated build and testing pipelines.

How does it help with dependency management?

It encourages the use of the 'workspace:*' protocol and Bun catalogs to centralize version control and prevent version conflicts across different packages.

Deployment & DevOps

Validates Bun monorepo configurations to ensure workspace isolation, dependency catalog compliance, and Bun 1.3+ best practices.

Bun Workspace Validator is a specialized tool designed to optimize and secure Bun-based monorepos by auditing project structure and configuration files. It automatically identifies common architectural errors such as leaked dependencies in the root package, hardcoded workspace versions, and redundant lockfiles that can cause build inconsistencies. By enforcing Bun 1.3+ patterns—including dependency catalogs and the workspace protocol—this skill ensures your project remains scalable and compliant with modern runtime standards, providing actionable reports for both local development and automated CI/CD pipelines.
