Fixes #475.

Root cause

interopDefault() (#421) caches every property read in a Map and never
invalidates it. When the wrapped module mutates an export, the next read can
return a stale value. For Object.defineProperty with a non-configurable,
non-writable descriptor this violates the Proxy [[Get]] invariant and
throws:

TypeError: Proxy handler's 'get' result of a non-configurable and non-writable
property should be the same value as the target's property

This crashed Pi during the Datadog plugin's OAuth sign-in: proper-lockfile
defines a symbol on the wrapped fs module after caching a read of it
(see #475).

Fix

Invalidate the affected cache entry in the defineProperty, set, and
deleteProperty traps. The get trap and its cache are unchanged, so the
#421 performance win is preserved.

Benchmark (node test/bench-interop.mjs, 2.7.0 vs this branch):

group 2.7.0 this branch
named export (add) 50.4 ns 47.8 ns
fallback to default (multiply) 24.3 ns 24.7 ns
property access 47.8 ns 47.5 ns

Tests

New test/interop-default.test.ts:

  • a non-configurable property defined with Object.defineProperty after a
    cached miss (the TypeError above)
  • assignment after a cached miss
  • delete after a cached read

All three fail on main (one with the TypeError, two with stale values) and
pass with the fix.

Related

#457 / #458 cover accessor caching and live bindings. This change is
complementary: invalidation happens on writes, independent of how the get
trap treats accessors.

📝 Walkthrough

The interopDefault proxy now invalidates cached property values when properties are defined, assigned, or deleted. New tests cover reads after these mutations, and the Vitest configuration includes the test file.

Changes: interopDefault property mutation handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Cache invalidation and regression tests
src/utils.ts, test/interop-default.test.ts, vitest.config.ts
The proxy clears the affected property’s cached value before forwarding definition, assignment, or deletion to the wrapped module. Tests check reads after each mutation. Vitest now includes the new test file.

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in src/utils.ts: The proxy now clears the affected property’s cache before forwarding property definition, assignment, and deletion to the target, returning each corresponding Reflect result. Previously, these mutation traps were absent, so cached reads were not invalidated.
  • observed — Modified behavior in test/interop-default.test.ts: Adds imports and test setup that creates a temporary CommonJS module exporting value: 42 before each test and removes it afterward.
  • observed — Modified behavior in test/interop-default.test.ts: Adds a test that expects a symbol-keyed property to read as undefined before it is defined with Object.defineProperty, and as "defined" afterward.
  • observed — Modified behavior in test/interop-default.test.ts: Adds a test that expects an initially missing property to read as undefined and to return "assigned" after assignment.

The review concern remains valid, but its primary category is functional correctness, not data integrity or integration. Separate proxies can retain stale values for the same cached exports object. A non-configurable, non-writable property can also make the stale get result throw a TypeError due to the Proxy [[Get]] invariant.

The current invalidation fixes mutations performed through the same proxy only. Share the cache between wrappers, or avoid caching mutable property values.

The interopDefault Proxy caches every property read and never
invalidates entries when the wrapped module mutates its exports.
After a read caches `undefined`, Object.defineProperty can add a
non-configurable, non-writable property, and the next read returns
the stale cached value instead of the target's value, which throws:

    TypeError: Proxy handler's 'get' result of a non-configurable
    and non-writable property should be the same value as the
    target's property

Invalidate the affected entry in defineProperty, set, and
deleteProperty traps. The get trap and cache are unchanged.
