Doesn't look like vibecoding to me. It does look like a Claude ad, but they do have a vested interest in not screwing up Bun now that they own it.

What would be the consequence to them if they did screw it up? Screwing up the maintainability of a project, especially a big one, doesn't necessarily have immediate consequences. The fallout could be delayed by a year or more. Also, they have effectively limitless tokens to burn on keeping everything looking OK, and a vested interest in doing so.
I'm not trying to spin up some kind of conspiracy theory here, but I'm not sure to what extent Anthropic does have any vested interest in this project (in fiscal terms at least) because the reputational fallout could be significantly delayed and might just not be big enough to matter.
Claude Code is the main reason their revenue (ARR) grew from $9bn to ~$47bn in the first half of this year.
That's a very big reason not to screw this up.
