Tasks that involve Dependency management
What it does
Bun Package Manager is an agent skill from secondsky/claude-skills. Bun package manager commands (install, add, remove, update), workspaces, lockfiles, npm/yarn/pnpm migration. Use for dependency management with Bun.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/cli-commands.md`).
It sits in Development, covering Dependency management. It works with npm and pnpm. The repository describes itself as: Production-ready skills for Claude Code CLI - Cloudflare, React, Tailwind v4, and AI integrations. The licence is MIT.

Requirements
Node.js
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8837836. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
bun
bunx
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
github.com
registry.npmjs.org
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Bun Package Manager loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 402 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Always· name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs· the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k
With references· SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.5k
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Bun Package Manager
Bun's package manager is a dramatically faster replacement for npm, yarn, and pnpm. Up to 25x faster than npm install.
Quick Start
bash
# Install all dependencies
bun install
# Add packages
bun add react react-dom
bun add -D typescript @types/react
# Remove packages
bun remove lodash
# Update packages
bun update
# Run package binaries
bunx create-next-app
Core Commands

bun install
Install all dependencies
bun add <pkg>

bun add -D <pkg>
Add dev dependency
bun add -O <pkg>
Add optional dependency
bun add --peer <pkg>

bun remove <pkg>
Remove dependency
bun update [pkg]

bunx <pkg>
Run package binary
bun pm cache rm

Installation Flags
bash
# Production mode (no devDependencies)
bun install --production
# Frozen lockfile (CI/CD)
bun install --frozen-lockfile
bun ci # shorthand
# Dry run
bun install --dry-run
# Verbose/Silent
bun install --verbose
bun install --silent
# Force reinstall
bun install --force
# Global packages
bun install -g cowsay
Lockfile
Bun uses bun.lock (text-based since v1.2):
bash
# Generate text lockfile
bun install --save-text-lockfile
# Upgrade from binary bun.lockb
bun install --save-text-lockfile --frozen-lockfile --lockfile-only
rm bun.lockb
# Run in matching packages
bun run --filter 'pkg-*' build
# Run in all workspaces
bun run --filter '*' test
# Install for specific packages
bun install --filter 'pkg-a'
Lifecycle Scripts
Bun does not run lifecycle scripts from dependencies by default (security). Whitelist trusted packages:
json
{
"trustedDependencies": ["my-trusted-package"]
}
bash
# Skip all lifecycle scripts
bun install --ignore-scripts
# Concurrent scripts
bun install --concurrent-scripts 5
Bun 1.3+ default flip: Starting in Bun 1.3, isolated is the default for workspaces (packages can no longer reach undeclared deps through the hoisted root node_modules). hoisted is now the legacy opt-out — only use it when a workspace package depends on a transitive dep that it doesn't declare.
Hoisted (legacy opt-out; still the default for single non-workspace packages)
Traditional flat node_modules:
bash
bun install --linker hoisted
Isolated (default for workspaces in Bun 1.3+)
pnpm-like strict isolation:
bash
bun install --linker isolated
Isolated prevents "phantom dependencies" - packages can only access declared dependencies. To make this explicit or restore it after an opt-out, set it in bunfig.toml:
toml
[install]
linker = "isolated" # default for workspaces in Bun 1.3+
# linker = "hoisted" # legacy opt-out
CI/CD
yaml
# GitHub Actions
- uses: oven-sh/setup-bun@v2
- run: bun ci # frozen lockfile
Platform-Specific
bash
# Install for different platform
bun install --cpu=x64 --os=linux

Secure Installation
When installing packages, follow supply chain security best practices:
Block post-install scripts — Bun disables them by default; allow specific packages via trustedDependencies in package.json
Cooldown period — Configure minimumReleaseAge in bunfig.toml to wait 7 days for new versions
Audit before installing — Run socket package score npm <pkg> or use socket npm install <pkg> to check packages before they reach your project
Load the dependency-upgrade skill for full security configuration including Socket CLI integration, cooldown setup, lockfile validation, and CI enforcement.
