Mads LorentzenandClaude Opus 4.8 a68028bc54 fix(cli): pin @types/bun and @bunli/* to concrete versions to stop CI type-drift (#226)
CI runs `bun install` (not --frozen-lockfile) and the CLIs' package.json
pinned @types/bun, @bunli/core, and @bunli/utils to "latest", so each fresh
install could resolve a different version than the lockfile. When a "latest"
bun-types resolved that didn't satisfy the tsconfig (lib: ["ESNext"] with no
DOM, types: ["bun-types"] as the only source of Response/URL/fetch globals),
`bun run typecheck` failed across every .ts file - a transient red on PRs that
never touched TypeScript (observed on #207, which changes only SKILL.md).

Pin the three previously-floating dev/framework deps to the versions the
lockfiles already resolve, so behavior is unchanged and the drift class is
gone:
- @types/bun: latest -> 1.3.14  (all 6 CLIs)
- @bunli/core:  latest -> 0.9.1  (jobbank, jobdanmark, jobindex, jobnet)
- @bunli/utils: latest -> 0.6.0  (jobbank, jobdanmark, jobindex, jobnet)

The ^-ranged deps (node-html-parser, zod, typescript) are left as-is; they are
semver-guarded and were not the cause. No lockfiles committed (bun.lock stays
gitignored per existing policy). Verified: all 6 CLIs install and `bun run
typecheck` clean with the pins.

freehire-cli

CLI for searching the freehire.dev job aggregator across many markets (tech-focused), via its public JSON API.

Data source: freehire.dev REST API (/api/v1/jobs/search, /api/v1/jobs/facets, /api/v1/jobs/{slug}). Authentication: None required — reads are public (only tracking mutations need a key, and those are out of scope here). Dependencies: None (plain bun + fetch). bun install is optional and only pulls dev type defs.

Hosted-service dependency. This skill talks to freehire.dev, a personal project maintained on a best-effort basis with no formal SLA. If the API is unreachable the CLI exits non-zero with a clear error rather than hanging, so an outage degrades gracefully instead of breaking the caller. Point FREEHIRE_API_URL at a self-hosted freehire backend to swap the source.

Installation

cd .agents/skills/freehire-search/cli
bun install   # optional — only installs TypeScript dev types

The CLI runs without any install because it has zero runtime dependencies.

Self-hosting / base URL

The base URL defaults to https://freehire.dev and is overridable with an env var:

FREEHIRE_API_URL=http://localhost:8080 bun run src/cli.ts search -q "go"

The freehire backend is MIT-licensed and stands up with one command via Docker Compose (make up → API on :8080, same /api/v1/... paths).

Commands

Command Description
search Search jobs by keyword and facet filters
detail Fetch full detail for a single job by its slug

search accepts --format json|table|plain (default json); detail accepts --format json|plain. All errors are written to stderr as { "error": "...", "code": "..." } with exit code 1.

Quick examples

# Senior backend roles, table view
bun run src/cli.ts search -q "backend engineer" --seniority senior --limit 10 --format table

# Remote React roles in the EU
bun run src/cli.ts search -q "react" --remote remote --region eu --format table

# DevOps roles in Germany posted in the last 14 days
bun run src/cli.ts search --category devops --country DE --jobage 14 --format table

# Full detail for one job (slug from a search result's id)
bun run src/cli.ts detail golang-zensar-2bxu6dxm --format plain

See ../SKILL.md for the full flag reference and the hosted-dependency note.

Facet values come from freehire's controlled vocabularies. Discover the live values (with counts) for a market at /api/v1/jobs/facets, or narrow it, e.g. https://freehire.dev/api/v1/jobs/facets?q=react.
