Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The workflows currently cache the materialized node_modules tree instead of Bun’s global download cache, and they omit prefix fallback keys, so dependency reuse may be incorrect or lost after lockfile changes. This is bounded to CI caching and does not change install or test behavior, but merge should include explicit owner awareness or follow-up to correct both cache settings. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

Reuse an exact node_modules cache in lint and JavaScript tests while keeping the frozen-lockfile install and postinstall validation. Avoid apt metadata refreshes in C++ tests when the required development packages are already present, with a fallback installation path for future runner images.

Bun documentation bun install node_modules cache CI cache global cache lifecycle scripts platform-specific packages
💡 Result:
Bun's installation process is highly optimized for performance and security. Below is a summary of its key behaviors and best practices. Global Cache Bun uses a global cache to store downloaded packages, typically located at ~/.bun/install/cache [1]. Each package version is stored in its own subdirectory [1]. When you run bun install, Bun checks this cache before downloading files from the registry [1]. To speed up deployments in CI/CD, it is recommended to cache this specific directory (e.g., using GitHub Actions' actions/cache) rather than node_modules, as Bun is generally fast enough to reconstruct node_modules from the cache [2]. Lifecycle Scripts Bun is secure by default and does not execute arbitrary lifecycle scripts (like postinstall) [3][4]. Instead, it uses an allowlist for trusted packages [3][4]. To enable lifecycle scripts for a specific package, add its name to the trustedDependencies array in your package.json [3][4]. You can also use bun pm trust to add a package to this list automatically [4]. To globally disable all scripts, use the --ignore-scripts flag or configure install.ignoreScripts in bunfig.toml [3]. Platform-Specific Packages Bun supports filtering dependencies based on architecture and OS through flags like --os, --cpu, and --libc [5][6][7]. This is particularly useful in environments like Docker or cross-compilation, as it prevents the installation of unnecessary platform-specific binary variants (e.g., glibc vs musl on Linux) [6][7]. These constraints are recorded in the lockfile, ensuring subsequent installs (such as --frozen-lockfile) remain consistent [6][7]. CI/CD Best Practices For reproducible and deterministic builds in CI/CD, use bun ci [8]. This command is equivalent to bun install --frozen-lockfile and will fail if the lockfile is out of sync with package.json [8]. By caching the global cache directory and ensuring a lockfile is present, you can achieve efficient, network-minimized installs [8][2]. Global Virtual Store Bun also supports a global virtual store, which allows projects to share a single copy of common packages on disk, reducing storage usage [9]. This is off by default and can be enabled by setting globalStore = true or using the BUN_INSTALL_GLOBAL_STORE environment variable [9].

Cache Bun’s global install cache in both workflows.
The cache keys omit the runner image and libc, while bun.lock includes platform-specific packages such as Biome, TypeScript, and unrs-resolver bindings. A cache hit can restore node_modules built for an older runner environment before bun install --frozen-lockfile runs. Cache ~/.bun/install/cache instead in .github/workflows/lint.yml and .github/workflows/test.yml.

actions/cache restore-keys exact key partial match documentation
💡 Result:
In GitHub Actions, the actions/cache (and actions/cache/restore) action uses a specific order of operations to determine which cache, if any, to restore [1][2]. 1. Exact Match: The action first searches for a cache entry that matches the provided key exactly [1][2]. If an exact match is found, the action restores those files, sets the cache-hit output to true, and stops searching [3][4][2]. 2. Partial Match (via restore-keys): If there is no exact match for the primary key, the action proceeds to check the restore-keys [1][2]. These are an ordered list of prefixes [3][5][6]. The action evaluates them sequentially from top to bottom [1][2]. For each restore key, it looks for any existing cache whose key starts with that specific string [1][7]. The first prefix that finds a match is used [2]. If multiple caches match a single restore key, the most recently created one is selected [1][2]. In this scenario, cache-hit will be set to false [3][4][6]. 3. Cache Miss: If no matches are found for the primary key or any of the restore-keys, no cache is restored [1][2]. Key Concepts: - cache-hit: This output explicitly indicates whether an exact match for the primary key was found [3][4]. It does not indicate whether a partial match (via restore-keys) occurred [3][8]. - cache-matched-key: This output provides the actual key of the cache that was restored, whether it was an exact match or a partial match [3][5]. - Workflow Optimization: restore-keys are designed to provide a "warm start" [2]. Even if a partial cache is restored, the workflow will typically proceed to save a new cache entry under your primary key once the job completes successfully [9][2]. This ensures that future runs will have an exact match available [2]. Configuration Example: - uses: actions/cache@v6 with: path: path/to/dependencies key: ${{ runner.os }}-build-${{ hashFiles('package-lock.json') }} restore-keys: | ${{ runner.os }}-build- ${{ runner.os }}-

Restore a compatible prefix cache in both workflows.
When the hashed inputs change, actions/cache@v6 checks only the new exact key because neither step defines restore-keys. Add a prefix fallback in .github/workflows/lint.yml and .github/workflows/test.yml to avoid cold installs.
