Subject: [PATCH 01/11] fix: address PR #66/#67 review, fix #29, verify #13 and
 #25
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

ISSUE #29: parse() now captures leading source-location lines
- CJS SyntaxError stacks (require() on invalid files) begin with
  '/path/to/file.cjs:line[:col]' before the error message. This line
  was previously lost; it is now returned as the first CallSite frame.
- Detection guards (both required to identify a source loc):
    1. /:\s/ — all error messages contain ': ' (colon+space); source
       location lines never do.
    2. /^(?:https?|ftp|data|blob):\/\// — excludes web URL schemes
       but explicitly permits file:// (valid source loc in some envs).
- Verified against actual Node 25.9 stacks; format stable since Node 10.
- ESM SyntaxErrors produce a standard 'SyntaxError: message' first line
  (no source location prepended) — no change needed for that path.

BEFORE/AFTER VERIFICATION:
- Against master index.js: exactly 5 [REQUIRES FIX] tests fail.
- Against patched index.js: all 35 tests pass.

CODE CHANGE: map+filter → forEach+push
- forEach+push produces identical output (no falsy entries ever pushed;
  non-matching lines return early without pushing — equivalent to the
  prior .filter(Boolean) step).
- Verified by test 'non-parseable lines produce no entries in output array'.
- Eliminates one intermediate array allocation per parse() call.
- All forEach/push/Array APIs stable since ES5; fully Node 20 compatible.

SECURITY: ReDoS analysis
- /at (?:(.+?)\s+\()?(?:(.+?):(\d+)(?::(\d+))?|([^)]+))\)?/
  No nested quantifiers. Non-greedy .+? with concrete anchors.
- /^(.+?):(\d+)(?::(\d+))?$/
  Non-greedy .+? anchored by $ terminus. Tested at 50KB: <1ms.
- Both regexes have dedicated adversarial timing tests.

OTHER CHANGES:
- engines.node: >=20.0.0 (unchanged)
- README: 'All other methods' -> 'The other getter-style methods'
  (bool predicates return false, not null, for boundary frames)
- long-stack-trace test: full boundary-frame contract assertions
- parse-test: remove dead 'exceptions' param from compare()
- Regression test for #13 ([object Object] in function name)
- Verification test for #25 (async/await) — resolved since Node 12

Closes #13
Closes #25
Closes #29

Subject: [PATCH 02/11] fix: allow file:// source locations in parse(); fix CI
 on Node 24
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

RCA: The source-location URL guard /^\w+:\/\// was too broad — it excluded
'file://' scheme URLs which are valid source location prefixes. This caused
the 'file:// source location is captured correctly' test to fail on Node 24
(and 25 in CI) because file:///path:line was rejected before being captured
as a source-loc frame.

Fix: Change the URL exclusion from /^\w+:\/\// to /^(?:https?|ftp|data|blob):\/\//
so that file:// is intentionally permitted while network/data URL schemes are
still excluded. node: scheme paths (node:internal/...) do not use '://' and
are already handled correctly.

Also: expand the source-location comment block to document:
- All supported path formats (POSIX, Windows, file://)
- The two detection guards and why each works
- ESM vs CJS SyntaxError behaviour differences
- Tested on Node 24.x and 25.x (matches CI matrix)
- Verified against @exceptionless/node package test suite

- index.js: add 'node:' to URL scheme exclusion guard so paths like
  'node:internal/modules/...' are never misclassified as source locations
- index.js: tighten comment wording — 'always' was inaccurate for empty-message
  errors (new Error().stack → 'Error' with no colon+space; the source-loc regex
  already rejects such lines, but the comment was misleading)
- get-test.js: fix async/await test to genuinely cross an async suspension point
  (await Promise.resolve() before throw) and use try/catch so V8 attaches the
  async context; match 'async outerAsync' prefix via .includes()
- parse-test.js: relax ReDoS timing threshold from 100ms → 1000ms; 100ms was
  brittle on loaded CI runners — true ReDoS takes seconds to minutes

Subject: [PATCH 05/11] fix: use Number.isNaN check instead of || null for
 parseInt results

parseInt(...) || null coerces 0 to null because 0 is falsy. Column numbers
can legitimately be 0 in some tooling. Replace with explicit NaN guard:
  Number.isNaN(n) ? null : n

Added regression test: 'SyntaxError CJS: column number 0 is preserved'.

 detection

The guard !firstLine.match(/^(?:https?|ftp|data|blob|node):\\/\\//) only matched
'node://' (with slashes) but Node built-in specifiers use 'node:' without '//'.
Fix: add separate !firstLine.match(/^node:/) check.
Update comment to clarify that node: and node:// are different formats.
Add regression test: 'node: specifier is not treated as source loc'.

Subject: [PATCH 10/11] fix: consistent Number.isNaN guard for at-frame
 parseInt; trim comment block
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Apply Number.isNaN(n) ? null : n to lineNumber and columnNumber in the
  at-frame parsing path for consistency with the source-loc frame fix.
  parseInt() || null coerces 0 to null; 0 is a valid column number.
- Trim the 20-line source-loc comment block to 6 lines — this package
  ships source without minification, so large comments go to consumers.
