Speculative lowering lowers some function bodies several times: the
receiver of `(function () { ... }).call(this)` goes through four call
lowerings that each probe it with tryLowerExpression, and each probe lowered
and counted the body. A five-statement program with such a wrapper reported
14 statements, and a fenced statement inside it counted as four failures.
The Lowerer now records which statements and class field initializers are
in the totals and which are counted as failed, and counts each node once.
Corpus 6110's @deferred-fences directive stays 1, its one fenced statement
in a class base lowered once, and its header no longer ties the count to
how many times that body lowers.
AsyncLocalStorage changes, matching Node 24.22:
- setTimeout, setInterval, setImmediate, process.nextTick and
queueMicrotask callbacks run with the stores that were active when they
were scheduled. Before, getStore() returned undefined in them.
- An interval keeps that context on every tick, and a refreshed timer
keeps it too.
- enterWith inside one of these callbacks lasts until the callback
returns. An enterWith in top-level code ends when the main module's body
returns, and one inside a callback scheduled with no store active ends
when that callback returns, so the store does not reach callbacks that
were scheduled without it.
Programs that enter stores (store.run, exit, enterWith, or a
diagnostics_channel store binding) schedule through new *_als runtime
entry points, which wrap a callback scheduled with a store active in a
closure that installs the stores around the call. The emitter picks them
from the new asyncContext runtime feature; other programs keep the plain
entry points, so their scheduling is unchanged.
The limitations page notes that completion callbacks of callback-style
I/O APIs still run with no store.
5815-als-callback-context compares the stores each kind of callback sees
with Node, plain and with SCRIPTC_SAN=1.
The workload's release binary links dynamic-tier symbols through its
worker messages: node:worker_threads values (Worker, parentPort,
workerData) are dyn objects, and worker.on and postMessage lower to
dynamic method calls. ThreadSlots and InternTable link none on their
own. intern-table and typed-array-scan-workers are listed for the same
reason.
String iterators (s[Symbol.iterator]()) and typed array values(),
keys() and entries() compile as iterator objects: generators over the
code points and over the indices. The iterator helpers apply to them,
and for...of, spreads and Array.from consume them.
Iterator.from over an array, string, typed array, Set, Map or iterator
object answers the value's own iterator, as Node does for iterators
that already inherit from Iterator.prototype. Objects with their own
next method keep the Iterator fence. As the root of a helper chain,
Iterator.from(x) walks x itself: an array by index, a Set or Map live,
a generator directly.
h.return!() and h.return?.() compile when h is a helper call or a const
initialized with one: helper objects always have return(), so both
spellings are the call. Other iterator objects keep the fence, since the
array, string, Map and Set iterators have no return().
flatMap callbacks may return Sets (their values) and Maps (their
entries), walked live; a string result throws Node's TypeError and
closes the source.
Every change that added a checked-dynamic handle kind appended its tag
just before SCR_DYNH_COUNT in scr_dyn.h, so any two such changes in
flight conflicted there. The tags are now sorted by name, each with its
current value written out, so a new tag goes in its sorted place with the
next free value, and changes adding different tags edit different lines.
SCR_DYNH_COUNT, used only by the capacity check, is gone.
The values are unchanged and the runtime artifacts are identical. A new
test checks what the enum's order used to guarantee: values are unique and
below SCR_DYNH_CAPACITY, and the LLVM backend's hardcoded tag numbers
(DYN_HANDLE_TAG_NUM) match the header.
Every change that adds a corpus program also added its CI costs to
tests/harness/corpus-costs.json. The table is sorted by program name and
programs are numbered in sequence, so concurrent changes inserted lines at
the same place and conflicted. A change now writes
tests/harness/corpus-costs/<program>.json ({ "plain": ms, "san": ms }).
The shard loader applies these files over the table, and
scripts/ci-corpus-costs.mjs folds them into the table and deletes them when
it refreshes the costs from CI logs. With no per-program files the table and
the shard assignment are unchanged.
node-v24-compatibility-meta.json held two values derived from the public
compatibility artifact: a content hash for the data URL and its row count.
Every compatibility change rewrote the hash line, so concurrent changes
conflicted on it. next.config.mjs now computes both from the committed
artifact and passes them to the page through Next's build-time env, with
the same values. The generator no longer writes the file, and its local
check compares the public artifact itself.
The error identity cache (scr_dyn_from_error) keeps one checked-dynamic
node per error so a crossing error compares reference-equal and keeps the
properties set on it. It retained both sides for the whole process, so
every error that crossed a checked-dynamic boundary (a caught error read
through a cast, an error delivered to an untyped callback, a dns failure, a
warning) stayed alive until exit: 100,000 caught AssertionErrors read
through a cast grew the resident set by about 210 MiB.
The cache now sweeps itself. An entry whose error and node are referenced
only by the cache is unreachable (a node holds no reference to its error;
a registered subclass box holds one, and a spawnSync error's `error`
property refers to its own node), so a sweep releases both sides. Sweeps
run when the cache doubles past the entries the last sweep kept, so they
cost amortized constant time per crossing. The cache is per thread, and
objects shared across threads are published (immortal), so a sweep never
races another thread's reference. Live errors and live nodes keep their
entries: identity, rethrowing the same instance, isNativeError and kind
checks are unchanged.
scr_error_set_prop sets an own property on an error's node; dns, assert,
cipher, crypto, util.callbackify and warning errors use it for the
properties they attach. util.inspect of a runtime error renders through
its node: Node's own properties follow the bracket form in key order (a
system error's errno, code, syscall and path, and the extra properties a
throw site attached), and an AssertionError renders at depth 0 with long
string actual/expected values shortened, as its custom inspect does. A
node that contains itself renders as Node's <ref *1>/[Circular *1].
child_process errors carry Node's own properties:
- execSync and execFileSync: status, signal, output, pid, stdout and
stderr (Buffers, or strings with an encoding option); a spawn failure
or timeout adds errno, syscall, path, spawnargs and error first.
- execFile's callback and the promisified execFile/exec: code (the exit
status, or null after a signal), killed, signal and cmd, with stdout and
stderr when promisified; a spawn failure has errno, code, syscall, path,
spawnargs and cmd.
The sync forms echo the captured stderr before a timeout throw too, as
Node's inheritStderr does. The cp.execSync libCall takes a flag for Buffer
outputs.
An error's own `stack` stays non-enumerable when assigned through its
node. A worker's record-source table is freed when the worker exits.
scr_dyn_invoke.c links into libraries that use dynamic calls, and its stored
timer functions call scr_set_timeout_handle, scr_set_interval,
scr_clear_interval, scr_set_immediate, scr_clear_immediate, scr_next_tick
and scr_queue_microtask_dyn, which live in scr_async.c. Libraries never link
scr_async.c (a library that schedules timers is refused at SC4005), so their
host links failed with undefined symbols. Under SCR_LIB the calls that
schedule are left out, and a call through a stored timer function throws the
SC4005 event loop error. Executables compile the same code as before.
- 6236-builtin-function-values.cjs counts the interval's runs apart from the
order of the other callbacks and reports once the interval has stopped, so
a slow machine prints the same line as Node.
- node24-util-types: Function now reads as a value, so the fixture's first
refusal is the SC1090 for extending Promise instead of the SC2009 for the
FunctionConstructor value.
This branch lowers Number.prototype.toPrecision statically, so the
tier-demotions and dynamic-mix coverage fixtures lost the operation they
used as "no static lowering". Use n.toLocaleString() instead: the host's
default locale is something a compiled binary cannot carry, so it stays
refused (SC2020) and the fixtures keep the same blocker and demotion
request on the same lines.

A base constructor that returns an instance of its class gets a result
slot, and super() from a subclass refused. three.js's Color constructor
ends in `return this.set(r, g, b)`, where set returns this, so every
construction of Color4 (`super(r, g, b)` during three.webgpu.js's module
initialization) threw the refusal, while Node constructs the subclass's
own instance.
In JavaScript, super() into such a class now calls a per-subclass helper
after the base constructor: it reads and clears the base's result slot,
and refuses at run time only when the base returned an instance other
than the subclass's this, where Node would rebind it. TypeScript
subclasses keep the compile-time refusal.
The self-hosting harnesses link the IR they lower through compileC. Most
hand-picked a subset of runtime feature flags, which lacked dynTier: a
sanitized build compiles exactly the listed runtime sources, so programs
with jsval operations failed to link scr_js_value.c's entry points, and
harnesses passing no flags at all failed in both lanes.
Every such site now spreads moduleLinkFeatures (tests/harness/
link-features.ts), which is executableLinkFeatures, the selection
compile() uses, so a runtime unit added later cannot drift out of the
harness builds. moduleUsesDynTier joins the IR facade's unit gates.

node:test changes, matching Node 24.22:
- A subtest cancelled because its parent timed out has its mocks
restored and its mock timers reset when it is cancelled, as Node's
postRun resets the test's mock tracker. Before, a mocked method stayed
mocked for the tests that ran after it.
- Its afterEach chain and t.after hooks run at the next turn, once the
runner has moved on to the next test, as Node runs them when the
cancelled test's own run resumes. Before, they never ran. The chain is
copied when the test is cancelled, since its ancestors drop their hooks
when they finish.
- Its hooks are then dropped, so closures that capture its context do not
keep it alive. The registration parent is still not restored when the
cancelled body settles: it belongs to the test that runs then.
The timeout-cancel-cleanup fixture records the mocked method and the hook
order against the next test's body and compares them with Node, plain and
with SCRIPTC_SAN=1. It fails without this change.
String(x), template literals, `+` with a string and Number(x) or unary
plus on a program class instance failed with SC2001 ("values of type
'Money' cannot be compiled yet"), even when the class defines toString.
They now run Node's ToPrimitive protocol through the class's methods:
- `[Symbol.toPrimitive](hint)` when the class defines it, with the hint
"string" for String(x) and template literals, "default" for `+`, and
"number" for Number(x) and unary plus.
- Otherwise toString (string hint) or valueOf and then toString (default
and number hints), and "[object Object]" (NaN as a number) when the
class defines neither.
- The method dispatches like a call of it. Subclasses that convert
through a different method are tested first with instanceof, so an
array of base-class values converts each element by its own class.
- Unions of class instances and primitives (`Box | undefined`) convert
each arm as it would alone.
Conversions the program can change at run time keep a named refusal: a
toString or valueOf instance property or prototype write, a
Symbol.toStringTag, and conversion methods that can return an object.
Builtin classes and their subclasses keep their existing conversions.
clearTimeout, clearInterval and clearImmediate refused a handle typed
`Timeout | undefined` or `Timeout | null`, the type of a timer variable
that starts empty (`let timer: ReturnType<typeof setTimeout> | undefined`)
and of `handles[i]!` reads. Such a handle now passes id 0 when it is
absent, which matches no timer, so the clear does nothing, as in Node.
Date.prototype.toString, toDateString and toTimeString, String(date),
template literals and string concatenation print local time with the GMT
offset and the zone's long name, as Node does. The runtime identifies the
host zone from TZ or /etc/localtime, again after each write to
process.env.TZ, and looks its name up in a table generated from Node's
ICU data. Dates held in untyped values convert to strings with toString()
and to numbers with their time value.
JSON.stringify of the runtime-features record follows the declared field
order in the self-hosted compiler and the literal's insertion order under
Node. warningReplace and stdioExtended were declared before processEvents
but built after it, so the two compilers serialized the record differently
(self-hosting-runtime-features). The interface now lists them in the
literal's order.

Minifiers join a derived constructor's statements into one comma
expression (`super(message, options), this.name = ..., ...;`), which jose
6.2.12 ships in its error classes. The statement lowering already runs
each operand of a statement-level comma as its own statement, so super()
is accepted when only parentheses and comma operators separate it from
its expression statement. Every other expression position keeps the
SC1090 refusal.

scriptc's frontend talks to a TypeScript 7 API server. tsc-ts serves the
same API as tsgo, and it is now the default checker; SCRIPTC_CHECKER=tsgo
selects tsgo, which scriptc still includes.
- @scriptc/compiler depends on tsc-ts 0.0.3. The native distribution
ships its platform package as lib/tsc-ts, named by a new tsc_ts field
of the toolchain manifest; a manifest without it takes the executable
of an installed tsc-ts package.
- The executable cache key includes the tsc-ts executable's identity, in
the compiler and in the CLI's startup route.
- tsc-ts keeps the syntax trees it builds for the life of its process,
so the source parser starts a new server after 256 KB of parsed
source instead of letting one server grow with every file.
- A CI job compiles every corpus program with both checkers, in release
and dev, and requires the same LLVM IR and diagnostics
(scripts/checker-identity.mjs).
- Tests that compare with the TypeScript 7 SDK, the checker-panic
diagnostics, and the protocol tests run against tsgo.
agent.totalSocketCount counted only the requests an agent was serving,
so the idle sockets of a keepAlive agent in agent.freeSockets were left
out, and a second request that dialed a new socket while the first was
idle counted 1 instead of 2. As in Node, the count is now the number of
sockets the agent created that have not closed: a socket joins it when
its dial starts and leaves it when it closes, or before the request's
'close' when it does not go back to the pool. A request that takes a
free socket keeps the count.
Corpus 5593 covers reuse, a second socket, agent.destroy() and an agent
without keepAlive.
