The three glob entry points run a port of Node 24's
lib/internal/fs/glob.js walk in scr_glob.c: the same LIFO queue of
(path, patterns) items over the sorted directory listings, the same
lstat, stat, readdir, realpath and seen-pattern caches, the same result
set in insertion order, and the same exclusion checks, so matches come
out in Node's order. Patterns compile with the existing minimatch port.
glob_match is split into a compile step and a test step so the walk can
reuse each compiled pattern and test it segment by segment.
nocaseMagicOnly is now an option, because exclude patterns turn it off.
Patterns (a string or string array) and options (cwd as a path or
file: URL, exclude as patterns or a function, followSymlinks,
withFileTypes) are validated in Node's order with Node's errors,
including the internal assertion Node hits for a non-string cwd with
exclude patterns. withFileTypes results are Dirent rows: name,
parentPath and the type probes. parentPath follows Node's rule for each
form: the joined path for globSync, the resolved path for fs/promises
glob.
fs.glob checks the callback and validates synchronously, then delivers
string[] or the walk's error through the filesystem callback queue.
fs/promises glob lowers as the source of a for await loop. The walk runs
when the loop starts, and the matches found before an error bind before
the error is thrown, as Node's async iterator yields them first. The
older glob(3)-based fs.glob branch is removed.
Corpus 5448-5452 and a node-types fixture check the behavior against
Node.
docs/content/docs/limitations.mdx now holds the frontmatter, the
headings, the anchor spans and one <include> line per partial. The text
moves unchanged to docs/content/limitations/: one file per labeled
bullet (<section>/<label>.mdx) and one per section's other text
(<section>.mdx). Edits to different bullets no longer touch adjacent
lines of one file.
remarkDocsConventions splices the included partials into the page and
joins the lists that consecutive bullet partials contribute, so the page,
its Markdown twin and the search index render as before. The route tests
read the page with its partials inlined. A page that includes partials
takes its last-modified date, used by the sitemap, from the newest commit
to the page or any of its partials.
docs/scripts/limitations-partials.mjs joins the partials back into one
file, splits a single-file page, and merges a branch's edits to the
single-file page into the partials.
crypto.createSecretKey and generateKey/generateKeySync for "hmac" and
"aes" return SecretKeyObject values, native dyn handles over a copy of
the key bytes. The type and symmetricKeySize getters, export() as a
Buffer or a JWK, equals(), instanceof KeyObject, String(),
JSON.stringify and util.inspect follow Node 24.22, as do the argument
checks, their order and their errors. createHmac and hkdf/hkdfSync
accept these keys. toCryptoKey() and KeyObject.from() need WebCrypto
values and are refused with SC2020.
Dyn handle ops gain a @@toStringTag that differs from the class name
and a flag for views with no properties, which util.inspect prints at
any depth. KeyObject method calls dispatch through dynInvoke.
crypto.timingSafeEqual accepts every TypedArray, DataView, Buffer,
ArrayBuffer and SharedArrayBuffer and compares their bytes. Values of
other types throw Node 24.22's ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE for buf1 and then
buf2, before the byte lengths are compared. Views of every element kind
keep the typed call; other arguments take the checks at run time.
randomFillSync accepts every TypedArray, DataView, Buffer, ArrayBuffer and
SharedArrayBuffer and returns its argument at its own type. Offsets and
sizes count elements and are checked in bytes with Node 24.22's
ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE and ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE errors. randomFill fills the
same buffers and calls back in a later macrotask, or synchronously when
nothing is filled, as Node does.
randomInt takes a callback in both forms, and its errors carry Node's
received values and the max or "max - min" label. Values come from a
6 KiB cache, as in Node, so a callback runs on the next tick while the
cache has data and after an asynchronous refill when it is empty.
randomUUID and the new randomUUIDv7 validate options.disableEntropyCache
and draw from a 128-UUID batch unless it is set.
A non-u8 view passed to randomFillSync no longer needs a Uint8Array
type, and the bytes callback adapters pass views of any element kind
and dyn values through.
Blob and File (globals and node:buffer exports) compile to native
handles in the new scr_blob.c, following Node 24.22's
lib/internal/blob.js and file.js. A Blob is a window over a shared,
immutable byte store plus the byte length of each part. Sources (strings,
typed arrays, DataView, ArrayBuffer, Buffer, other Blobs, Set and Map)
convert as a Web IDL sequence, with each non-buffer part converted to a
string, before the options are read, and are copied when the Blob is
built. The constructors throw Node's Web IDL TypeErrors and its
ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE, ERR_INVALID_ARG_VALUE and ERR_MISSING_ARGS errors,
and read and convert their options in Node's order. The type is
lowercased, or cleared when it holds a character outside U+0020..U+007E.
endings: "native" rewrites CRLF, CR and LF to the platform's line break.
File takes its name with lone surrogates replaced and lastModified as a
number (Date.now() when absent).
slice() converts its offsets as a [Clamp] long long (rounded half to
even) and keeps the parts Node's data queue keeps. text(), bytes() and
arrayBuffer() settle on the same microtask turn as in Node, which depends
on the part count. util.inspect prints Node's `Blob { size, type }` and
`File { ..., name, lastModified }` forms, with `[Blob]` past the depth
limit. String() and toString() give the class tag, JSON.stringify gives
{}, and structuredClone returns a new Blob or File over the same bytes.
instanceof works for both spellings. stream(), textStream() and the
Object.prototype members other than toString() fail at compile time.
Non-array iterables other than Set and Map throw SC2020.
Three handle-table additions support this: a structuredClone hook, a
JSON `{}` flag, and a bracketed past-depth inspect flag. scr_blob.c is an
optional unit selected by dynAsync, because the dynamic dispatch path
boxes its reads as dyn promises through scr_async_dyn.c.
Corpus 5285-5290 and a node-types fixture check the behavior against
Node.
Pin Node v24.22.0 (commit f14cd3aa7bf9, Undici 7.29.1, OpenSSL 3.5.8) in
.node-version, Dockerfile.sandbox, the docs matrix fallback, the
compatibility pin, the fetch profile, and process.version. A node-pin test
checks that these pins agree. The Node compatibility snapshot is
regenerated from the v24.22.0 API docs; the new stream_iter chapter maps
to node:stream/iter, and the SuiteContext rows no longer match the
TestContext evidence.
Runtime and compiler changes follow Node 24.22 behavior:
- fs.read, fs.readSync, and FileHandle.read validate the position before
the zero-length return.
- fs.statfs results include frsize; Windows reads
FileFsFullSizeInformation and reports bfree and bavail separately.
- fs.utimes, futimes, and lutimes keep nanosecond precision.
- ServerResponse sets writableFinished where 'finish' is emitted and runs
end() callbacks before the 'finish' listeners while the socket is still
attached; a request read to 'end' closes before its response.
- socket.write(string, 'buffer') throws ERR_UNKNOWN_ENCODING.
- URL protocol-setter rejections keep the current URL, the host setter
no longer leaves a "/." escape when it adds a port to a "//" path, and
new URLSearchParams(null) parses "null".
- util.stripVTControlCharacters uses Node 24.22's ANSI pattern,
util.styleText accepts #RGB and #RRGGBB colors, and
util.types.isDataView has its JS name and length.
- structuredClone and AbortSignal.any use the "cannot be converted to
sequence" message.
- crypto.getCiphers, getHashes, and constants match Node 24.22.
- dns.lookup, net.connect, and tls.connect throw ERR_INVALID_ARG_VALUE for
hosts with null bytes.
- fs.readFile validates options.buffer and refuses its valid forms;
httpValidation and certificateCompression refuse by name.
- url.domainToASCII, url.domainToUnicode, and url.parse hostnames follow
ada 4.0: ASCII domains are lowercased without checking their xn--
labels, the RFC 5893 rule checks how LTR labels end and how RTL labels
start, a Punycode label whose decoded form begins with "xn--" fails, and
ToUnicode decodes only labels that pass the ToASCII checks. The url
legacy test cases are regenerated with Node 24.22.
Corpus programs 5275-5279 cover the new behavior. 1640, 2283, 2599, and
3136 are updated where they pinned Node 24.15 output.
- Support `new Console(...)` over process stdio and writable streams
- Write `log`/`info`/`debug`/`error`/`warn` output like Node, including `ignoreErrors`
- Mark the `Console` class as partially supported in the compatibility data
- Support `arrayBuffer()` from `node:stream/consumers`
- Print ArrayBuffer and SharedArrayBuffer values like Node
- Mark the stream consumers as partially supported in the compatibility data
- NoThrow diagnostics name compiler-resolved Node errors (class and message)
and explain parameters the frontend compiles as T | undefined because a
caller passes a possibly missing value (for example xs[i]!), naming that
call.
- Synthetic dynamic-class helpers (%dyn.*) carry the location of the code
that first needed them; they are no longer bound to annotations there.
- Int32 hints only parenthesize where needed; the NoThrow hint no longer
suggests try/catch, which does not discharge the contract.
- Diagnostics snapshots and TypeScript preflight/order baselines for the new
fixtures.
- Docs: /docs/contracts and a limitations entry.
The runtime answers like libuv 1.51's uv_available_parallelism, which
Node's os.availableParallelism() returns: on Linux the CPUs in the
process's affinity mask, lowered to a smaller cgroup (v2 cpu.max or v1
CFS) CPU quota; on Darwin hw.activecpu, hw.logicalcpu or hw.ncpu; on
Windows GetSystemInfo's processor count; at least 1. WASI answers 1, as
the dynamic island does.
Parallel programs (tsc-ts --checkers) need it to size their thread pools.
Corpus 4598 pins the value against the host's Node.
The new docs page (/docs/threads) explains @scriptc/threads: a runnable
example that publishes a million-order ledger and sends it to four
workers, verified under Node.js 24 and as a scriptc executable; what
publish accepts and refuses, and that a refused publish leaves the graph
unchanged; the frozen-object TypeErrors of the write guard; a comparison
with Node's structured clone (constant-time sends, preserved classes and
identity, immortal objects) and the three rules that make a program
behave the same under both; the automatic sharing of deeply frozen
untyped data; and the cost model. The limitations page gains a Published
graphs section (immortality, class and identity differences, write-check
evaluation order, private fields) and links the new page from the
worker-threads section.
This is the first page added since the migration, so the route-test
fixture now accepts pages without a legacy URL, and the agent guide's
checklist for new pages names the fixture.
- Preserve callback identity, receiver binding, and class references across unions and collections.
- Track record field presence independently of undefined values and improve native runtime behavior.

- Add native worker execution with isolated module state, structured messages, and lifecycle controls.
- Support shared buffers and integer atomics with coordinated runtime ownership and cancellation.
- Extend compiler, runtime-pack, differential, and compatibility coverage for native concurrency.
