## Use this when

- Editing file I/O or scans in `packages/ironcode`
- Handling directory operations or external tools

## Bun file APIs (from Bun docs)

- `Bun.file(path)` is lazy; call `text`, `json`, `stream`, `arrayBuffer`, `bytes`, `exists` to read.
- Metadata: `file.size`, `file.type`, `file.name`.
- `Bun.write(dest, input)` writes strings, buffers, Blobs, Responses, or files.
- `Bun.file(...).delete()` deletes a file.
- `file.writer()` returns a FileSink for incremental writes.
- `Bun.Glob` + `Array.fromAsync(glob.scan({ cwd, absolute, onlyFiles, dot }))` for scans.
- Use `Bun.which` to find a binary, then `Bun.spawn` to run it.
- `Bun.readableStreamToText/Bytes/JSON` for stream output.

## When to use node:fs

- Use `node:fs/promises` for directories (`mkdir`, `readdir`, recursive operations).

## Repo patterns

- Prefer Bun APIs over Node `fs` for file access.
- Check `Bun.file(...).exists()` before reading.
- For binary/large files use `arrayBuffer()` and MIME checks via `file.type`.
- Use `Bun.Glob` + `Array.fromAsync` for scans.
- Decode tool stderr with `Bun.readableStreamToText`.
- For large writes, use `Bun.write(Bun.file(path), text)`.

## Quick checklist

- Use Bun APIs first.
- Use `path.join`/`path.resolve` for paths.
- Prefer promise `.catch(...)` over `try/catch` when possible.
