Problem

The CI lint job ran bun run lint (prettier --check --cache . && eslint --cache .) with a results cache keyed lint-${{ github.sha }} plus a bare lint- restore-key. A restored cache marks files clean that are NOT clean at the current tool version/config, so main passed lint while any cold-cache run fails with ~605 prettier drift files and thousands of eslint errors. The job also had continue-on-error: true, so nothing blocked merge anyway.

Changes

  • Split lint into two parallel jobs: prettier (bunx prettier --check .) and eslint (bunx eslint .), so one failing cannot mask or be conflated with the other.
  • Dropped the prettier/eslint result caches in CI entirely. Chosen over strict content-keying because correctness comes first and a full un-cached run of both tools on this repo takes well under a minute — not worth any cache-staleness risk. The --cache flags in package.json's lint script are unchanged for local speed; CI runs the un-cached commands directly.
  • Removed continue-on-error — these jobs now fail the run.
  • The bun-install dependency cache (content-keyed on bun.lock) is kept — that one is sound.
  • typecheck and build-and-test jobs untouched; the aggregate bun run check script still runs bun run lint and stays coherent.

Branch protection

The protect-main ruleset is being updated so prettier, eslint, typecheck, and build-and-test are required status checks blocking merge to main.

Coordination

Until the companion formatting PR (branch format-eslint-first-pass) merges, the new strict prettier/eslint jobs will fail on every branch — including this one. The required-checks flip is still safe to apply immediately: nothing can merge green until the format pass lands, which is the intended state.

…merge

The lint job cached .eslintcache and node_modules/.cache/prettier with a
bare lint- restore-key, so restored caches marked files clean against a
stale tool version/config: main passed lint while a cold-cache run fails.
It also carried continue-on-error, so failures never blocked anything.

- Split lint into parallel prettier and eslint jobs so one failing never
  masks the other
- Drop the lint result caches in CI entirely; run bunx prettier --check .
  and bunx eslint . un-cached (local lint script keeps --cache for speed)
- Remove continue-on-error; these jobs become required status checks
Keep the two stylistic rules as warnings: ~1200 pre-existing
non-null assertions and empty functions are a backlog, not a
merge-queue blocker. The leftover unused-vars, unused-expressions,
and related errors were real and are fixed here so prettier and
eslint can report as required checks.
