LGTM — small, well-scoped error-name mapping that restores the Zig-era cwd-deleted hint, with tests.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR restores the actionable "current working directory was deleted" message when bun starts in an unlinked cwd. It touches three Rust files and two test files:
src/sys/Error.rs: adds a single branch into_zig_err()soTag::getcwd+ENOENTreturns the internedCurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinkedname.src/sys/lib.rs:From<bun_sys::Error> for bun_core::Errornow callse.to_zig_err()instead ofbun_core::Error::from_errno(e.errno as i32). Sinceto_zig_err()'s fallback iserrno_to_err(self.errno)→bun_core::Error::from_errno(errno as i32), this is behaviorally identical for every existing error and only adds the one new mapping.src/bun_core/util.rs:getcwd()(which callslibc::getcwddirectly and bypassesbun_sys::Error) now captureslast_os_error()once, checks forENOENT, and returns the named error; all other errnos go through the existing.into()path unchanged.- Tests: a new POSIX-only
describeinrun-crash-handler.test.tsexercisesbun -eandbun runfrom a deleted cwd, and the existing compiled-binary deleted-cwd test inbun-build-compile.test.tsupdates its stderr assertion fromENOENTto the human-readable hint.
I confirmed the consumer side matches: crash_handler::handle_root_error already has an arm comparing against bun_core::err!("CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked") that prints exactly the string the tests assert on.
Security risks
None. This only refines which interned error name is produced for one (syscall, errno) pair on an error path that already terminates the process. No new I/O, no parsing, no auth/permissions/crypto, no user-controlled data flowing anywhere new.
Level of scrutiny
Low. This is an error-message/UX fix that re-establishes parity with the Zig stdlib's std.posix.getcwd ENOENT→error.CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked mapping. The only change with broad reach — the From impl — is a pure refactor to call an existing helper whose fallback is byte-for-byte equivalent to the old body, so there's no collateral behavior change for other errnos or syscalls.
Other factors
The bug hunter found no issues. There are no outstanding human review comments. New tests directly cover the regression (asserting both that the hint appears and that the generic "Bun could not find a file" fallback does not), and an existing test was updated rather than left stale. The change is small, mechanical, and well-commented.

LGTM — focused error-name mapping that restores the existing cwd-deleted hint, with tests.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR restores the actionable "current working directory was deleted" message when bun starts from an unlinked cwd. It touches three Rust files (src/bun_core/util.rs, src/sys/Error.rs, src/sys/lib.rs) to map getcwd+ENOENT to the interned error name CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked, which crash_handler::handle_root_error already matches on (verified at src/crash_handler/lib.rs:1341). The From<bun_sys::Error> impl now routes through to_zig_err(), whose fallthrough is identical to the old from_errno call, so non-getcwd errors are unaffected. Two test files are updated: an existing compiled-binary deleted-cwd assertion is tightened, and a new POSIX-only suite covers bun -e / bun run.
Security risks
None. This is purely an errno→error-name refinement on an existing failure path; no new inputs, no auth/crypto/permissions, no externally controllable data.
Level of scrutiny
Low. The change is small (~20 LOC of logic), mechanical, and mirrors the documented Zig stdlib behavior it was ported from. The target error name and consumer already exist in the codebase — this just wires up the producer that went missing during the Zig→Rust port. Worst-case regression would be a slightly different error string on a startup failure path that already exits 1.
Other factors
The bug-hunting system found no issues. Test coverage is solid: the new tests assert both the presence of the hint and the absence of the generic fallback, and the existing compile test was updated rather than left stale. No outstanding human review comments on the PR.

LGTM — focused error-name mapping that restores the actionable deleted-cwd hint, with new test coverage and green CI.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR wires up the CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked named error so that crash_handler::handle_root_error (which already had a match arm for it at src/crash_handler/lib.rs:1364) can print the actionable "The current working directory was deleted..." hint instead of the generic ENOENT fallback. Three small Rust changes: bun_sys::Error::to_zig_err gains a Tag::getcwd && ENOENT special case; From<bun_sys::Error> for bun_core::Error routes through to_zig_err() so ? conversions pick it up; and bun_core::getcwd (which calls libc::getcwd directly) checks raw_os_error() == Some(ENOENT) and returns the named error. Two test files are updated — one existing assertion tightened, one new POSIX-only describe block added.
Security risks
None. This is purely error-name interning for diagnostic output. No auth, crypto, permissions, or input parsing is touched.
Level of scrutiny
Low. The From impl change looks broad at first glance but is behavior-preserving: to_zig_err() falls through to errno_to_err(self.errno) → bun_core::Error::from_errno(errno as i32), which is exactly what the old From body did. The only new behavior is the single getcwd+ENOENT branch. The util.rs change captures last_os_error() once before checking, so there's no errno-clobbering risk.
Other factors
CI is green (Build #62662). The PR description has a clear repro, root-cause analysis, and before/after output. New tests cover both bun -e and bun run from a deleted cwd and assert both the presence of the hint and the absence of the generic fallback. The existing compiled-binary deleted-cwd test is updated to match the improved message. No outstanding reviewer comments.

I didn't find any bugs, but this introduces a new cross-crate pattern (bun_sys::Error::to_named_core_err()) and touches the error-conversion path in four crates, so it's worth a maintainer confirming the layering is what they want.
What was reviewed:
- Confirmed
handle_root_erroralready has theb"CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked"arm (crash_handler/lib.rs:1369) with the exact message the tests assert. - The
bun_core::getcwdENOENT check is inside the#[cfg(unix)]block; Windows is unaffected andE::ENOENT/Tag::getcwdexist on all targets soto_named_core_err()compiles everywhere. - Both updated
From<bun_sys::Error>impls have aCore(bun_core::Error)variant to receive the mapped error; other crates'Fromimpls (bundler, install, jsc, etc.) were left alone — none callgetcwdon a path reachinghandle_root_error. - New tests reuse the established
cd && rmdir && execpattern from the existing compiled-binary test;tempDircleanup tolerates the already-removed directory.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
The PR restores the actionable "current working directory was deleted" hint that crash_handler::handle_root_error already knows how to print but that nothing in the Rust port was producing. It adds a CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked variant to bun_core::Error, maps libc::getcwd ENOENT to it in bun_core::util::getcwd, adds a new bun_sys::Error::to_named_core_err() helper that maps (Tag::getcwd, ENOENT) → the named variant, and wires that helper into the From<bun_sys::Error> impls for bun_runtime::Error and bun_resolver::Error. Tests cover bun -e, bun run, and the compiled-binary startup path.
Security risks
None. This is purely error-message routing on a startup failure path; no auth, crypto, permissions, or untrusted-input parsing is touched.
Level of scrutiny
Medium. Each individual hunk is small and mechanically correct — I verified Tag::getcwd exists (sys/lib.rs:1385), crate::ffi::errno() returns c_int matching libc::ENOENT, the unix-only cfg gating in bun_core::getcwd, and that both target crates have a Core(#[from] bun_core::Error) arm. However, the change spans four crates' error types and introduces to_named_core_err() as a new extension point for syscall-aware errno→name mapping. That is a small design decision (why only these two From impls and not a shared conversion in From<bun_sys::Error> for SystemErrno, or uniformly across all ~13 From<bun_sys::Error> impls?) that a maintainer should ratify rather than a bot.
Other factors
The PR description is thorough and the fix is well-reasoned — it correctly identifies that bun_sys is the only layer where the syscall tag survives, so the mapping belongs there. Tests follow harness conventions (tempDir, bunEnv, concurrent pipe drains, combined-object assertion) and mirror the existing deleted-cwd test in bun-build-compile.test.ts. The negative assertion (not.toContain("Bun could not find a file")) guards against regressing to the generic fallback. CI is still building the latest push. Given the cross-crate error-plumbing shape and the new helper API, this falls just outside "simple and mechanical" for auto-approval.

crash_handler::handle_root_error has an arm for the error name "CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked" (ported from Zig, whose std.posix.getcwd mapped ENOENT to that named error), but nothing in the Rust port produced it. Every crate's From<bun_sys::Error> flattens the error to a bare SystemErrno, dropping the syscall tag, and bun_core's getcwd returned Unexpected, so a deleted cwd fell through to the generic ENOENT/Unexpected messages instead of the "cd into a different directory" hint. Add a CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked variant to bun_core::Error, return it from bun_core's getcwd on ENOENT, and add bun_sys::Error::to_named_core_err() holding the (getcwd, ENOENT) mapping at the one layer that still has the syscall tag. The bun_runtime and bun_resolver From<bun_sys::Error> impls consult it before collapsing to Sys(errno); those are the two getcwd paths that reach handle_root_error (CLI commands and compiled binaries respectively). bun run / -e are not covered by the new tests because they now fall back to the executable's directory when the cwd is gone and boot anyway; the tests target install and test, which refuse to guess, plus the existing compiled-binary case.

Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR maps getcwd failures with ENOENT to a named CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked error so that crash_handler::handle_root_error's pre-existing arm for that name (src/crash_handler/lib.rs:1285) actually fires, replacing the generic "Bun could not find a file" fallback with the specific hint. Five source files change: a new variant on bun_core::Error (+ its name() arm), an ENOENT check in bun_core::getcwd_len, a 6-line to_named_core_err() helper on bun_sys::Error, and two 3-line insertions in the From<bun_sys::Error> impls of bun_runtime and bun_resolver. Two test files add three POSIX-gated subprocess tests and tighten one existing assertion.
Security risks
None. This is an error-message routing change: it converts one error variant into another before it reaches the top-level error printer. No new syscalls, no user input parsing, no auth/crypto/permission surface.
Level of scrutiny
Low-to-medium. The change is additive and narrowly scoped — the only behavioral difference is which message string prints when getcwd fails with ENOENT, a case that previously printed a generic fallback. The two From impls now consult to_named_core_err() first and fall through to the existing Self::Sys(e.into()) on None, so every other errno/syscall path is byte-identical. Tag::getcwd is defined in src/sys/lib.rs and is what both the POSIX and Windows bun_sys::getcwd wrappers already use to tag failures.
Other factors
- A maintainer (cirospaciari) has been hands-on with this PR: they authored the review-fix commits (stderr draining, comment trimming) and resolved all inline threads; Jarred-Sumner also engaged. All bot/reviewer threads are marked resolved.
- Test coverage is solid:
bun install/bun testfrom a deleted cwd assert the hint text and explicitlynot.toContainthe old generic message; the compiled-binary case inbun-build-compile.test.tswas tightened fromtoContain("ENOENT")to the specific hint (strictly stronger, so it can't have passed before the fix); a third test locks in thatbun -eboots via the exe-dir fallback with empty stderr and exit 0. - The one CI failure noted in the thread (
test-worker-message-port-transfer-terminate.jsSIGABRT on x64-asan) is a known worker-teardown flake unrelated to error-message routing; the branch has since been rebased onto main which includes the worker-teardown fixes from #38457.

Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR maps getcwd failing with ENOENT (cwd deleted out from under the process) to a named CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked error so crash_handler::handle_root_error can print its existing user-facing hint instead of the generic ENOENT fallback. Touches five source files with ~20 net lines: a new bun_core::Error variant + name() arm, a 2-line ENOENT check in bun_core::getcwd_len, a 5-line to_named_core_err() helper on bun_sys::Error, and two 3-line insertions in the From<bun_sys::Error> impls for bun_runtime and bun_resolver. Tests add a POSIX-only describe block to run-crash-handler.test.ts (three subprocess tests) and tighten one assertion in the existing compiled-binary-in-deleted-cwd test in bun-build-compile.test.ts.
Security risks
None. This is purely error-message routing on an already-failing path (getcwd returned null with ENOENT). No new syscalls, no user input parsing, no auth/crypto/permissions. The change only affects which static string gets printed before the process exits 1.
Level of scrutiny
Low. The change is mechanical error plumbing that activates a pre-existing dead code arm in the crash handler. I verified: (1) the target arm at src/crash_handler/lib.rs:1285 matches on the exact byte string the new variant's name() returns; (2) Tag::getcwd exists and is what bun_sys::getcwd uses when constructing its error, so the (Tag::getcwd, ENOENT) match in to_named_core_err() is reachable; (3) the bun_core::getcwd_len change is inside the #[cfg(unix)] block so it doesn't affect the Windows path (where the scenario is unreachable anyway).
Other factors
The PR has been actively shepherded by two maintainers through rebase/conflict resolution. All three prior review threads (two comment-cop flags on a long doc comment, one CodeRabbit note on undrained stderr) are marked resolved and the current diff reflects the fixes: to_named_core_err has no doc comment, and all three new tests drain stdout+stderr+exited concurrently via Promise.all. Tests follow harness conventions (tempDir, bunEnv, bunExe(), combined-object assertion for the hint tests, test.concurrent for independent subprocess spawns, POSIX-gated with a one-line reason). The tightened bun-build-compile.test.ts assertion (ENOENT → "The current working directory was deleted") strengthens rather than weakens an existing test. The PR body documents that all three hint assertions fail on main and pass with the change.
Drop the (getcwd, ENOENT) mapping from bun_sys::Error and the From<bun_sys::Error> hooks in bun_runtime/bun_resolver. Instead, the three call sites that propagate a failed getcwd to handle_root_error (Arguments.rs --cwd base, Arguments.rs default cwd, FileSystem::init) call bun_core::getcwd, which is the only function that maps ENOENT to CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked. This matches where the error originated before the port (std.posix.getcwd only; bun.sys.getcwd never produced it) and keeps every other bun_sys::getcwd caller's error unchanged.

LGTM — the inline nit about bun install --cwd . is a narrow same-class sibling (deleted cwd + explicit relative --cwd to a package-manager subcommand) that's no worse than main; fine to fold in or defer.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
Restores the CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked error name that the Zig→Rust port lost: adds the variant to bun_core::Error, maps ENOENT inside the #[cfg(unix)] branch of bun_core::getcwd_len, and switches three call sites (Arguments::parse --cwd base + default cwd, and FileSystem::init in the resolver) from bun_sys::getcwd back to bun_core::getcwd so the named error reaches crash_handler::handle_root_error's existing arm. Tests cover bun install, bun test, and a compiled binary from a deleted cwd, plus a negative check that bun -e boots via the exe-dir fallback.
Security risks
None. This changes only which error-name string surfaces for a startup failure; no untrusted input parsing, no auth/crypto, no new syscalls.
Level of scrutiny
Low-medium. Small mechanical restoration of pre-port behavior against an already-existing handle_root_error arm. Verified the ENOENT mapping sits inside #[cfg(unix)] (Windows can't remove a process's cwd, and the tests are correctly isPosix-gated). The three converted sites match the PR's claim of pre-port bun.getcwd callers; the bun install test case works via FileSystem::init(None) even though USES_GLOBAL_OPTIONS[InstallCommand] is false.
Other factors
The one inline nit — src/install/PackageManager/CommandLineArguments.rs:1554 still uses bun_sys::getcwd for --cwd . — is real but doesn't regress anything (that path prints the same generic ENOENT it does on main), and the trigger is narrow. All prior review threads (comment-cop on src/sys/Error.rs, CodeRabbit stderr drain) are resolved; the final head dropped to_named_core_err entirely so src/sys/Error.rs is no longer in the diff. Tests follow harness conventions: tempDir, bunEnv, concurrent pipe drain, combined-object assertion, and a negative not.toContain("Bun could not find a file") guard against the old fallback.

🟡 The PR description says "Every other bun_sys::getcwd caller handles its error locally," but bun_install's own --cwd parser at src/install/PackageManager/CommandLineArguments.rs:1554 still calls bun_sys::getcwd(&mut buf[..])? and propagates ENOENT to handle_root_error — package-manager commands skip arguments::parse because USES_GLOBAL_OPTIONS[InstallCommand] is false. It's the structural twin of the --cwd site fixed here, so bun install --cwd . from a deleted directory still prints the generic "Bun could not find a file" fallback; switching that call to bun_core::getcwd would close the class.
Extended reasoning...
What the bug is
The PR converts three bun_sys::getcwd call sites to bun_core::getcwd so that a deleted cwd surfaces CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked at handle_root_error and prints the actionable "The current working directory was deleted…" hint. The PR description justifies stopping at three sites with: "Every other bun_sys::getcwd caller handles its error locally and is unchanged." That claim is incorrect for the package-manager --cwd parser, which still propagates a bare ENOENT all the way to handle_root_error and hits the generic fallback this PR set out to eliminate.
The specific code path
Package-manager subcommands (install, add, remove, update, link, pm, …) do not go through the modified arguments::parse in src/runtime/cli/Arguments.rs. USES_GLOBAL_OPTIONS[Tag::InstallCommand] is false (src/options_types/command_tag.rs:266), so create_context_data() at src/runtime/cli/mod.rs:1136 skips arguments::parse entirely for the whole family. Instead these commands parse --cwd inside bun_install::CommandLineArguments::parse:
// src/install/PackageManager/CommandLineArguments.rs:1549-1555
if let Some(cwd_) = args.option(b"--cwd") {
let mut buf = PathBuffer::uninit();
let mut buf2 = PathBuffer::uninit();
let final_path: &mut bun_core::ZStr = if !cwd_.is_empty() && cwd_[0] == b'.' {
let cwd_len = bun_sys::getcwd(&mut buf[..])?; // ← still bun_sys, propagates via ?Why the existing changes don't cover it
- The
Arguments.rs:837conversion never runs for install-family commands (gated out byUSES_GLOBAL_OPTIONS). - The
resolver/lib.rsconversion (FileSystem::init(None)) is reached later, insidePackageManager::init(src/install/PackageManager.rs:1498), but the--cwd .branch fails beforePackageManager::initis called — so the resolver-side fix never fires on this path. - The final diff no longer touches
src/sys/Error.rs(commit 4c99108 "Produce CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked only from bun_core::getcwd" removed the cross-cuttingto_named_core_errapproach), sobun_sys::getcwdstill surfaces a bare errno.

Impact
Low. The trigger requires the combination of (a) a deleted cwd and (b) an explicit relative --cwd argument to a package-manager subcommand. No crash or incorrect behavior; the user just gets the unhelpful message instead of the hint. But per REVIEW.md ("Fix the whole class in the same PR — same-class sites are ONE concern, not scope creep"), this is a same-class sibling of the three converted sites: it resolves a relative --cwd against getcwd() and propagates the failure to handle_root_error, exactly like the Arguments.rs:837 twin. And the "intentionally excluded" rationale in the PR description is factually wrong for this site — it does not handle its error locally.
Fix
One-line: switch src/install/PackageManager/CommandLineArguments.rs:1554 from bun_sys::getcwd to bun_core::getcwd, matching the pattern applied at Arguments.rs:837:
let cwd = bun_core::getcwd(&mut buf)?.as_bytes();(and either update the PR description's exclusion claim, or drop it).
Problem
crash_handler::handle_root_error(src/crash_handler/lib.rs) already has an arm for the error nameCurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinkedthat printsThe current working directory was deleted, so that command didn't work. Please cd into a different directory and try again., but nothing produces that name, so the arm is dead code.std.posix.getcwdmappedENOENTtoerror.CurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinked. The call sites that feedhandle_root_errornow usebun_sys::getcwd, whose error collapses to a bareSystemErrno::ENOENT, andbun_core's owngetcwdreturnedUnexpected.mkdir /tmp/gone && cd /tmp/gone && rmdir /tmp/gone && bun install(orbun test, or abun build --compilebinary).bun run/bun -eare unaffected: they fall back to the executable's directory and boot.Fix
bun_core::Errorgains aCurrentWorkingDirectoryUnlinkedvariant; itsname()is the stringhandle_root_errormatches on.bun_core'sgetcwd_lenreturns that variant whenerrno == ENOENT, makingbun_core::getcwdthe one producer of the name, asstd.posix.getcwdwas before.getcwdcalls whose failure propagates tohandle_root_errornow callbun_core::getcwdinstead ofbun_sys::getcwd: the--cwdbase and the default cwd inArguments::parse(CLI commands), andFileSystem::initin the resolver (compiled binaries). Every otherbun_sys::getcwdcaller is unchanged, andbun_sys::Erroritself is untouched.test/cli/run/run-crash-handler.test.ts(bun installandbun testfrom a deleted cwd print the hint;bun -eboots via the exe-dir fallback) and the existing compiled-binary case intest/bundler/bun-build-compile.test.ts, which now asserts the hint. With the foursrc/files reverted to the merge base, the three hint assertions fail (generic ENOENT message); with them applied, all pass.Background
handle_root_erroris where anErrreturned from bun'smainends up. It takes anything implementingErrNameand switches on the error's name string to pick a user-facing message, falling back to a generic one.thiserrorenum with aCore(bun_core::Error)variant, andname()on a wrapper delegates to the inner error, so abun_corevariant returned at the bottom of the chain (bun_core::getcwd-> resolver -> bundler -> jsc -> runtime) surfaces its name unchanged at the top.bun_core::getcwdandbun_sys::getcwdare two wrappers over the same libc call; the difference is the error type.bun_sys's returns the rich syscall error, which other callers want for JS-visible errors;bun_core's returns abun_core::Error, which is what the startup paths need here.Earlier shape of this PR
The first version added a
bun_sys::Error::to_named_core_err()helper holding the(getcwd, ENOENT)mapping and consulted it from theFrom<bun_sys::Error>impls inbun_runtimeandbun_resolver. 4c99108 replaced that with switching the three call sites tobun_core::getcwd, which keeps the mapping in one place and leavesbun_sysand theFromimpls as they were.
