Emphasis on the FOSS project. The v1.4 mentioned is not (yet?) open source, Claude Code is essentially using a proprietary fork, was GP's point.

You can install it now we with bun upgrade —-canary it something along those lines.
I think you’re missing a word or two.
Based on comments elsethread, I think what was meant is: You can install it now with “bun upgrade --canary”, or something along those lines.
However, people also report that the canary version doesn’t identify itself as version 1.4.

It's extremely obvious what they meant, even if it/or wasn't a common phone autocorrect typo.

It's a canary releasing directly from main: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun
We have run it in production for a month: https://www.prisma.io/blog/bun-rust-rewrite-prisma-compute
And GP is full of shit as the main branch is the v1.4.0. it is not "released" yet as it is not finished. It is available as canary version.
So Anthropic ships with unfinished version of bun.
Doesn’t sound like responsible software deployment
They can ship with whatever they want as long as it works.

From the article:
> For me this outputs Bun v1.4.0 (macOS arm64). The most recent release of Bun on GitHub is currently v1.3.14 from May 12th, so that v1.4.0 version number in Claude supports them shipping a preview of a not-yet-released Bun version.
Which is still true as I write this comment.
The code is on GitHub in the "main" branch, it's only unreleased in that it hasn't been tagged with a version number yet.

A charitable interpretation is that the version of bun inside Claude Code corresponds to some recent state of their public git repository, so if you clone that, you more or less get the same thing.
I don't see what it would buy Anthropic to have some sort of secret internal fork with special private code in it.
