Changelog
v1.8.3 4/17/2026
• standalone: npm packages in remap now resolve through Rollup's node-resolve (ESM instead of CJS) • standalone: simplified dependency namespace exposure — less runtime code, cleaner bundle • test runner: test bundle no longer inlines the dependency graph; building tests for large packages no longer breaks
v1.8.2 4/16/2026
Fixed runtime errors in standalone builds with exposeNamespaces: true: TDZ errors with circular dependencies, crashes on read-only properties of frozen objects, and conflicts when a dependency namespace matches the current extension namespace.

v1.6.0 4/11/2026
- New
chef baselinecommand — check web feature availability for current browser targets - New
chef diag baselinesubcommand — overview of unsupported features across all extensions - Build now warns about usage of APIs and CSS properties not supported by target browsers
chef typechecknow resolves external dependencies via tsconfig paths and includes extension.d.tsfilestransformClassesaccepts an array of class names for selective transpilation
v1.5.1 4/1/2026
- Fixed update check crash on Windows (EINVAL when spawning npm.cmd)

v1.5.0 4/1/2026
- New diagnostic commands:
deps-tree(dependency tree with--depth,--flat,--why) andbundle-size(bundle size with--with-deps) - Asset sizes (images, fonts, SVG) are now included in
top-bundle-sizeandtop-total-size— only files actually referenced from bundles are counted - Column sorting for
top-bundle-size(--sort js|css|assets|total) andtop-total-size(--sort own|total|deps|tree) - Fixed parsing of
config.phpfiles with early conditional returns - Fixed
.d.tsgeneration: JSDoc-annotated interfaces are now placed outside the namespace - Fixed
preset-envapplication to TypeScript files based ontargets
v1.4.1 3/30/2026
Fixed startup crash on global install. Fixed doubled indentation in TypeScript extension bundles
v1.4.0 3/29/2026
- Reworked
.d.tsfile generation: entry-point traversal, cross-file type resolution, re-export aliases, abstract classes, function overloads, unique symbols, generics - Fixed transpilation of TypeScript files imported from outside the package root (e.g.
../../src/) - Added declaration emitter test suite (99 cases)
v1.3.1 3/27/2026
Added update notification for new chef versions. When running CLI in a terminal, npm registry is checked for updates with results cached for 24 hours. If a newer version is available, an informative message with update instructions is displayed after the command finishes.
v1.3.0 3/27/2026
- Tab indentation in bundle output instead of spaces
- Summary output when building or testing multiple extensions

- Fixed bundle duplication when concat file has the same basename as output
- Fixed blank lines left by stripped comments in TypeScript builds
- Excluded bundle output files from chef lint and chef typecheck
- Added support for rollup-compatible treeshake option format in bundle.config
- Added --exclude option for lint and typecheck commands
v1.2.0 3/25/2026

v1.1.0 3/24/2026
New safeNamespaces option in bundle.config — safe dependency namespace access via optional chaining in the IIFE wrapper. Fixed copying large CSS images to dist and CSS ordering in bundles.
v1.0.0 3/24/2026
chef lintcommand — extension linting via ESLint 9 with TypeScript support, caching, and auto-fixchef diagcommand — project diagnostics: top dependencies, bundle sizes, circular dependencies, unused extensions, usage searchchef aliasesandchef init hookscommands — TypeScript path alias generation and VCS hooks for auto-updatingchef --versionflag to check installed version- Bundle minification via Terser instead of oxc-minify
