fix: skip option-shaped workspace names in npm, Yarn and Bun fix commands - #1588
Such a target is now skipped when it is added to the plan, so the terminal output, the HTML report, the JSON plan and --fix all agree: no command is printed or run, and the target is counted on the fix summary as "Package or workspace name looks like an option (no command offered)". --fix also refuses these targets on its own, so the runner never drops a target the plan printed, or runs one it skipped.
npm -w, yarn workspace (install and parent update) and bun --filter are checked.
pnpm is not affected: its workspace selector is always passed as ./<dir>.
npm's parent update passes the name inside a single --workspace=<name> argument, and Bun's parent update (bun update <pkg>) passes no workspace, so neither is affected.
A normal workspace name produces the same command and --fix arguments as before.
This is the workspace-name half of #1493, which covers package names. The isOptionShapedName helper, the optionShapedName skip flag and the option-shaped: skip key match #1493's, so either PR can rebase onto the other.
…ands
A workspace name that starts with "-" was passed through to npm -w, yarn workspace and bun --filter, so the package manager treated it as a flag. Those targets are now skipped in the plan and by --fix, and counted on the fix summary.
The fix summary uses one counter for package and workspace names. Runner tests pass hand-built targets, including the pnpm, npm update, and bun update forms that still run.
It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
Unsafe package or workspace names that resemble command-line options are skipped instead of being passed as standalone arguments to package-manager commands.
Skip reports and fix summaries identify affected findings and provide rename guidance. Safe fixes continue to run, including supported shared updates that don’t pass the unsafe name as a standalone argument.
When option-shaped names are the only reason fixes cannot run, the result explains why; fix result counts also reflect these skipped findings.
I updated fix planning and execution to detect option-shaped workspace names. The planner records affected findings as skips, the runner avoids commands that use unsafe workspace operands, and output paths report the associated reasons and counts.
Changes: Workspace option-name handling
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Detect and record option-shaped workspace targets src/utils/package-identity.ts, src/remediation/fix-commands.ts, tests/remediation/workspace-option-names.test.ts, tests/remediation/npm-alias-fixes.test.ts
The planner checks applicable workspace operands for leading hyphens and records matching findings as skips with package-instance keys. Tests cover package-manager behavior, mixed safe and option-shaped workspaces, transitive findings, and aliases.
Filter commands and report skipped findings src/utils/fix-runner.ts, tests/fix-runner-workspace-option.test.ts, tests/fix-runner-apply.test.ts, tests/fix-runner-summary.test.ts
The runner filters commands with option-shaped package or workspace operands. It selects a specific no-command note when option-shaped names are the only skips and updates summary wording.
Display skip reasons and result counts src/output/printers.ts, tests/fix-result-*.test.ts, tests/remediation/workspace-option-names.test.ts
Terminal and compact output show skip reasons for affected findings. Tests cover HTML output, scan results, and serialized result counts.
Option-shaped workspace names are now skipped safely, but some edge cases still produce misleading output. A refused transitive upgrade can still be recommended, and plan coverage counts and the findings table may mislabel aliases that share a name. These are low-impact display problems and can be fixed before or after merge.

Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
For users, option-shaped workspace names no longer reach npm, Yarn, or Bun fix commands. I checked the whole-PR summary (merge base 3387bce to head ecc490f) against #1584, the only active directly linked issue. The current head has moved past the last reviewed head, 1a673af, so I treated the changes since then as incremental. The summary for those changes shows added test coverage and wording updates. They do not alter the requirement mapping below.
[#1584] Skip in plan, terminal, HTML, and JSON: optionShapedWorkspaceOperand in src/utils/package-identity.ts returns the operand for npm -w, Yarn workspace (install and parent update), and Bun --filter. It returns undefined for pnpm and for npm and Bun parent updates. src/remediation/fix-commands.ts records the skip with optionShapedName and instanceKey. src/output/printers.ts reports the skip in compact and HTML output. src/scan/single-scan.ts and src/utils/fix-runner.ts report it through optionShapedNameCount.
[#1584] Plan and --fix agree: buildApplyCommands in src/utils/fix-runner.ts rejects option-shaped package and workspace operands. applyFixesIfRequested runs and counts only eligible targets. A printed target is not dropped silently, and a skipped target is not run.
[#1584] One test per package manager: tests/remediation/workspace-option-names.test.ts has an unsafe and a normal case for npm, Yarn, and Bun. Each unsafe case asserts no printed command, no run, and a skipped count. tests/fix-runner-workspace-option.test.ts covers the runner guard directly. tests/fix-result-option-shaped-scan.test.ts covers an end-to-end offline scan.
[#1584] Normal names unchanged: the tests assert that normal workspace names keep the same commands and --fix arguments.
Limits of this review: I relied on the PR summary, the PR description, and the test descriptions. I did not read the full diff hunks. I did not run the test suite.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
I find no unrelated changes. Each change below serves the #1584 skip or its reporting.
isOptionShapedName, optionShapedWorkspaceOperand, the optionShapedName skip flag, and the optionShapedNameCount field implement the #1584 skip and its summary line.
The instanceKey field on SuggestedFixSkip touches the package-name skip path, which belongs to #1493. The PR states that it shares this path with #1493. The key lets optionShapedSkipForFinding match a skip to the correct finding when a package-name skip and a workspace skip cover the same package. The mixed-alias test in tests/remediation/npm-alias-fixes.test.ts covers this case. I treat it as supporting work for #1584.
nothingAppliedNote in src/utils/fix-runner.ts, the note wording change in tests/fix-runner-apply.test.ts, and the label change in tests/fix-runner-summary.test.ts follow from the revised option-shaped skip message.
The findings-table keying is unchanged, as the PR states. That leaves the #1493 overlap for a later merge.
I relied on the summary for these judgments and did not read the full hunks.
Full details: Linked Issue
Explanation
I checked the PR description for a closing keyword followed by an issue number. It contains "Closes #1584". That reference points to issue #1584, "fix: workspace names that look like options reach npm, Yarn and Bun fix commands", which the linked-issue context lists as a direct link. The check requires only that the body references an issue with Closes, Fixes, Resolves or Refs, so it passes. I did not inspect the code, because this check depends only on the PR body.
Full details: No New Runtime Dependency
Explanation
I checked this change against the "No new runtime dependency" rule. The rule fails only when package.json gains a new entry under "dependencies" or "optionalDependencies", or when a package moves from devDependencies into dependencies. The reviewed range changes 11 files. None of them is package.json or any lockfile. The changed files are src/output/printers.ts, src/remediation/fix-commands.ts, src/utils/fix-runner.ts, src/utils/package-identity.ts, and several test files. The four tests and fixtures added in this PR are also outside package.json. I compared package.json at the base and at the head of the review range. The "dependencies" block has the same five entries in both: better-sqlite3, fflate, semver, yaml, and yarn-lockfile. "optionalDependencies" is absent in both. No package moved between sections. The new code uses only existing project modules. The rule does not fail on this PR, so it passes.
Full details: Closes Keyword Matches Scope
Explanation
I read the PR body. It uses Closes #1584, so merging auto-closes the issue. I read the linked issue. It asks for three things that matter here. First, an option-shaped workspace target must be skipped in the plan, the terminal output, the HTML report and --fix alike. Second, the target must be counted in the "looks like an option" summary line. Third, there must be a test per package manager (npm -w, Yarn workspace, Bun --filter), plus a normal-workspace regression. Delivered: - The plan skips the target. upsertTarget in src/remediation/fix-commands.ts (lines 895-907) records an optionShapedName skip and adds no target. - --fix refuses the target. src/utils/fix-runner.ts uses optionShapedWorkspaceOperand in buildApplyCommands. - The summary line counts the skip. - Tests exist for npm, Yarn and Bun. They are in tests/remediation/workspace-option-names.test.ts and tests/fix-runner-workspace-option.test.ts. There is also a normal-workspace regression. - Terminal output is now fixed. The earlier FAIL said src/output/printers.ts was untouched. That is no longer true. printCompactOutput now calls optionShapedSkipForFinding (printers.ts lines 927 and 942-943) and shows the refusal reason instead of npm install. printSuggestedFixCommandSkips now lists option-shaped transitive skips (lines 189-233). A test at tests/remediation/workspace-option-names.test.ts lines 453-484 checks that no npm install text appears in compact output. - The HTML skipped section lists every plan skip, so it shows the refusal reason (renderSkippedSection, html-reporter.ts lines 905-925). Not delivered: - The HTML finding row still tells users to run npm install. src/output/html-reporter.ts line 731 sets runnable from finding.runnableFixCommand. For a skipped option-shaped target, findSuggestedCommandForFinding returns null, so line 737 renders finding.recommendedAction. src/output/formatters.ts line 339 sets that field from getRecommendedAction. Lines 113-114 of formatters.ts return "...run npm install to pick it up." for a transitive update-parent-within-range finding. The PR does not change html-reporter.ts or getRecommendedAction. So for the same Yarn within-range finding, the HTML row still recommends npm install after the plan refused the target. - No test checks the HTML finding row. The HTML assertions cover only renderSkippedSection. Because the issue asks that the target be skipped in the HTML report, and the HTML finding row still gives the refused install advice, the HTML part of the issue is not fully built. Merging with Closes #1584 would close the issue with that work open. The terminal part of the earlier concern is resolved. The HTML part is not.
Resolution
Choose one of these fixes. 1. Make the HTML finding row respect option-shaped skips. In src/output/html-reporter.ts (around lines 731-737), or in the recommendedAction path in src/output/formatters.ts (getRecommendedAction, lines 113-114 and the lockfile-refresh text in summarizeNextAction, lines 272-273), do not show a run npm install recommendation when optionShapedSkipForFinding(plan, finding) returns a skip. Show the skip reason instead. Add a test for a skipped Yarn within-range transitive finding. Render the HTML finding row and assert that the text npm install does not appear for that finding and that the refusal reason does. 2. If the HTML row work is deferred, change Closes #1584 to Refs #1584 in the PR body. This keeps the issue open for the remaining HTML work.

These tests cover the normal-name case well. They would fail if the guard started blocking ordinary names.
The gap is the mixed case I raised on upsertTarget. It has one normal workspace and one option-shaped workspace for the same package. No test pins what the plan does there. I'd add a fixture with two workspaces. Then the behavior is fixed in a test, whichever way you decide to go.

For two Yarn findings with the same package and target version, a safe workspace target can match a finding skipped for an option-shaped workspace. The plan can then say both findings are covered, although the command only runs in the safe workspace.

I like that the summary now separates option-shaped skips from "No fix available". Users get a clearer reason.
One gap remains. categorizeUnappliedTargets counts one per entry in plan.skipped. Skips are keyed per finding instance. Several findings can therefore inflate the count above the number of distinct packages or workspaces. The label says "Package or workspace name", which reads like a count of names. I'd either reword the label to say "findings", or dedupe by name. This is a wording and accuracy issue only. The scan result is not affected.

Thanks @rqms40, this closes a real hole. On main a workspace named --ignore-scripts=false turns into npm install -w --ignore-scripts=false ... (and the Yarn and Bun equivalents), and --fix really runs it. With your branch npm, Yarn Classic, Yarn Berry and Bun all skip it, say why, and count it on the "looks like an option" line, and --fix runs nothing. A normal workspace name gives the same command as before, and pnpm is safe as you explain. Merged with current main the suite passes and it builds.
One thing before it goes in, and it's CodeRabbit's Major thread, which is right. With two within-range findings for foo in workspace app and in workspace --ignore-scripts=false, the plan correctly skips the second, but that finding is still counted as covered (2 of 2) and is shown yarn workspace app upgrade foo, a command for a different workspace. The per-finding lookup matches on name and target version and never checks plan.skipped. Could you make it return nothing for a finding with an option-shaped skip, and add the test CodeRabbit asks for?
Smaller:
When the only skip is option-shaped, the runner still says "the remaining fixes are parent upgrades that need review", which isn't true there.
The count is per finding but the label says "Package or workspace name" (CodeRabbit's Minor).
A few tests would pin this down: a single-dash name like -rf (changing the check to -- passes today), the count in the --fix result JSON, and the applied count in the runner-guard tests.
Optional: npm and Bun accept the bound forms --workspace=<name> and --filter=<name>, which would keep the fix instead of skipping it. Yarn has no bound form, so skipping stays right there.
Heads-up: #1493 touches the same code (same helper, same skip key, the same summary count), so whichever of the two lands second will need a real rebase. I'll make sure the workspace-name part lives in yours.

Keep the safe alias marked as fixable in the findings table.
When same-named aliases share a version, the verbose table marks both aliases as skipped even if the plan offers a command for one. src/scan/single-scan.ts Lines 622-625 builds skip keys from name and version, and src/output/printers.ts Line 476 uses those keys instead of the new instanceKey. I would match skips by package instance in that display path so the safe alias does not get a ⊘ marker. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Thanks @rqms40, this is a solid round. The mixed case now behaves exactly right: with foo in app and in --ignore-scripts=false, the plan prints yarn workspace app upgrade foo, counts 1 of 2, and the skipped finding gets no command, where main handed it both. The runner note, the label and the -rf cases are all in, and each of the new tests fails when I take the change it covers back out. Merged with current main the suite passes and it builds.
A few small things left, two of them inline:
The two JSON count tests build the result object by hand, so the line that copies the option-shaped count into cve-lite-fix-result.json isn't covered.
CodeRabbit's note on the skip reason is worth taking: telling people what to do next turns the skip into something they can act on.
Its other new note, about the findings table marking both rows as skipped, comes from older name@version keying in the table rather than from your change, so feel free to reply there and resolve it.
Please resolve the threads that are now addressed (the coverage one and the label one) so the merge isn't blocked on them.
Heads-up again on #1493: it's approved and touches the same helper, skip key, count and summary line, including a test that asserts "Package name looks like an option". It goes in first, so the rebase here will need to settle on one summary line (yours covers both cases), one way the runner drops these targets, and give the package-name skip an instanceKey too so your lookup guard matches it.

Fix result JSON: a new test runs the real --fix scan on an offline advisory DB with a --ignore-scripts=false workspace and reads the written cve-lite-fix-result.json, asserting notAutoApplied.optionShapedNameCount is 1. Setting the copy in single-scan.ts to 0 now fails it.
Skip reason: it now says what to do next: Rename "<name>" so it does not start with a hyphen, update references, regenerate the lockfile, and rescan. The quoted value is the Yarn workspace package name, or the npm -w / Bun --filter path, i.e. what would have gone into the command. The npm, Yarn and Bun tests assert the full text, including -rf.
I left the findings-table keying alone as you suggested. Once #1493 lands I'll merge main in and settle on one summary line, one runner drop path, and an instanceKey on the package-name skip so the lookup guard matches it.
Record an instanceKey on package-name skips so the per-finding lookup matches them, and drop option-shaped package and workspace targets in one runner check.

Show transitive workspace skip reasons in terminal output.
For a Yarn within-range refresh in an option-shaped workspace, users do not see this skip's rename instructions. src/output/printers.ts Lines 176-217 excludes transitive skips. Its command printer also returns when the plan has no sections at Lines 117-126. With --fix, the new note refers users to a Suggested Fix Plan that is not printed.
I would include optionShapedName skips regardless of relationship in the terminal skip output. Add a terminal assertion for the transitive fixture.
As per path instructions, “Error messages should tell the user what to do next.”

A within-range finding keeps relationship "transitive", so the direct-only skip list dropped the refusal and compact output still recommended npm install.

Thanks @rqms40, this round covers everything we asked for. A real --fix scan now writes the option-shaped count into cve-lite-fix-result.json, the skip tells people to rename the workspace, and the rebase onto #1493 settled on one summary line, one place the runner drops these targets, and an instanceKey on the package-name skip. The transitive refusals show their rename steps in the terminal too. Every new test fails when I take the change it covers back out.
One thing came in from main after your last merge, and it breaks things when the two meet. The shell-safety change in v1.41.2 withholds commands that aren't safe to paste into every shell, and it calls findFixTargetForFinding with a stripped-down plan that only has targets (that cast is ours, and it's fragile). Your new skip check reads plan.skipped.some(...), so together they throw Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'some'). Merged with current main, tests/utils/shell-safe-commands.test.ts and tests/fix-commands-subfolder.test.ts fail, and a multi-folder project with a subfolder called R&D stops with that error where main scans it fine.
Could you merge main in and give that throwaway plan a real shape in withholdShellUnsafeTargets (skipped: [] and the real packageManager) so the lookup works on it as is?
While you're in there, please resolve the threads that are now done: both of mine, plus CodeRabbit's on coverage, the label, the recovery step and the transitive output. For the findings-table one, a short reply saying it comes from the table's older name@version keying is enough before you resolve it.

Show the skip reason when a transitive parent upgrade is refused.
For a transitive finding, upsertTarget refuses a parent-upgrade target whose workspace name starts with -, and it records an option-shaped skip. findingHasOptionShapedSkip checks workspace operands only for update-parent-within-range. For other transitive findings it returns false, so optionShapedSkipForFinding returns null. The compact output then falls through to Fix: upgrade <parent> to <target>. The plan omits that upgrade, but the output still recommends it, and the rename guidance is not shown.
The fix needs a design choice. The helper receives only the plan and the finding. The parent's workspace list is built inside buildSuggestedFixCommandPlan, and the skip record does not identify its target kind. A broader transitive match can also suppress a valid target for another parent in findFixTargetForFinding. Add the refused target kind or operand to the skip record, then match only that refused case.

@rqms40 quick update: the crash I described came from a shortcut on our side, so I fixed it on main in #1646. The shell-safety step no longer passes a stripped-down plan into the lookup, so your plan.skipped check only ever sees a real plan now.
That means you don't need to touch withholdShellUnsafeTargets. Merging main into your branch should be all it takes, plus resolving the finished threads. I'll ask CodeRabbit for another pass once you push.

A workspace name that starts with
