Kudzu 0.8.45 - Plain TypeScript fast path
Kudzu 0.8.45 reduces large-project compiler work with a narrow fast path for proven plain TypeScript modules.
Highlights
- Skips Kudzu TSX semantic transformation only for relative-only
.tsmodules. - Keeps the existing transformer for TSX, package imports, assets, unresolved edges, and uncertain forms.
- Adds a maintained 500-module source-scale benchmark with alternating baseline/candidate samples and deploy equivalence checks.
- Reduces compile median 39.2% and clean-build median 28.4% on the maintained fixture versus v0.8.44.
- Emits identical deploy output and adds no browser runtime or public API.
