- Line 1051: Move the stack-safety check in `print_as` outside the
`FORMAT.can_have_circular_references()` condition so all recursive formatting
paths, including JSX and Event, check before recursing. Keep visited-map
handling inside the circular-reference condition.

Beyond the inline finding, I also checked the new early return for resource leaks: it bails before self.map.get_or_put(value), so no visited-map entry is left behind for that frame, parent frames still hit their post-match self.map.remove(&value) on the propagated Err, and the pooled map_node is returned in impl Drop for Formatter on every exit path -- so the cleanup pairing holds.
Extended reasoning...
The change adds a per-frame bun_core::StackCheck guard to Formatter::print_as in src/runtime/test_runner/pretty_format.rs inside the circular-reference-capable branch, converting a native stack overflow into a thrown RangeError, plus a spawned regression test in test/cli/test/bun-test.test.ts. No security-sensitive surface is touched. An inline finding remains open (the guard excludes the JSX tag path), so a human still needs to look; the resource-cleanup audit of the new early return found no issue.

LGTM — the stack check now runs for every value in print_as, which covers the JSX-nesting case raised earlier, and the six-variant test exercises it.
What was reviewed:
- The guard itself:
StackCheck::init()is a thread-local read of the cached stack bound (cheap per frame) and the check/throw shape matches the existingMarkdownObjectand JSON5 stringifier sites;throw_stack_overflowwraps its own validation scope. - Error propagation: every
JestPrettyFormat::formatcaller (DiffFormatter::new,jest_snapshot_pretty_format, each matcher) uses?; theErrswallowed inside the property-iterator callback is re-surfaced byfor_each_property_ordered's exception scope, and the pooled visited-map node is released byFormatter'sDropon the error path. - Test: each wrapper is checked at depth 10 (snapshot mismatch
Error) and 100,000 (RangeError), so the assertion distinguishes the new throw from a generic failure; the subprocess exit code and "1 pass" are both asserted.
Extended reasoning...
The change adds a four-line stack-depth guard at the top of Formatter::print_as in src/runtime/test_runner/pretty_format.rs and a test.each block of six subprocess cases in test/cli/test/bun-test.test.ts; it touches no security-sensitive surface. The guard follows the same pattern as sibling StackCheck/throw_stack_overflow sites, all callers of the formatter already propagate JsResult errors with ?, and the pool node is released via Drop, so the new Err path composes with existing cleanup. The earlier inline finding about JSX values skipping the check was addressed by moving the check above the can_have_circular_references branch, and the later test-only commit rewrote the lines a bot comment targeted. The changed files are not covered by CODEOWNERS and the hunt ran dry, which decided approve.

Fixes a stack overflow in
bun testwhen it prints a deeply nested value. The process ends with SIGSEGV and prints nothing: no panic, no test name, no diff.toEqualhas it too.Bun__deepEqualschecks the stack and throws aRangeError, but its frames are smaller than the printer's, so there is a range of depths that compare fine and then overflow in the message.Cause
console.log's formatter asksStackCheck::is_safe_to_recurse()before it goes into a value. The one inpretty_format.rs, which prints values for matcher messages, diffs and snapshots, has no stack check and no depth limit.Fix
