Last time I read the bun docs I spotted an off-by-one bug in sample code, so I opened a github issue. An AI bot responded, confirming the issue, and opened a PR to fix it - A simple "+ 1" added in the right place. Two other AI bots reviewed the PR, which went on for several rounds of "improvements". Last time I checked, neither the issue nor the PR received any human attention (actually I just checked again, and the PR has been closed by stalebot).

Can you provide the link?

I, too, was curious to see it in practice.

Here is the ticket opened by @retr0id: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/28030

And here is the swarm of bots / LLMs / agents that open, review and bikeshed the PR before it's closed by the stalebot: https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/pull/28031

It's hilarious. But also a little sad.

Yup, that's the one.
That's pure comedy
Here's a trivial docs issue I opened, where I had a similar experience:

https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/31233

The difference is that the PRs to fix that problem were already open when I created the issue. I was unaware of them (I only searched for duplicate issues, not PRs addressing the problem). The robobun comment implies there are 5 open PRs addressing it, but I could only find two. They still haven't been merged, a month later.

https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/pull/30677 <-- later rolled up into:

https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/pull/30747

Was the bug actualy soved?
No, it was closed as stale.
