Originally created by @CassieFox23 on GitHub (Oct 10, 2026).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1442
TL;DR: Put an object into a slot, then write through that slot. REA misses the write. It reports the old value as a sure fact. No loop is needed. Real JS gives a different value.
Before submitting
Area
Evidence, artifacts, or reconstruction
Observed behavior
The return shape says
literal 1here. Real JS returns 2.After
o.a = shared, the sloto.aisshared. Soo.a.x = 2writesshared.x. REA does not link the two. It keeps the first value. The return-shape coverage still sayscomplete.When the object goes in at creation, REA is honest.
const o = { a: shared }givesunknown. So the gap is the later assignment.Reproduction
Save each form as
app.jsin its own folder. Runrea analyze-javascript-application <dir> --artifact-format directory --json. Then readstatic_return_shapesonresult.0b9815b662bffde3o.a = shared; o.a.x = 2literal 1literal 1literal 1arr[0] = shared; arr[0].x = 2literal 1literal 1literal 1o.a = shared; const t = o.a; t.x = 2literal 1literal 1literal 1const o = { a: shared }; o.a.x = 2unknownconst arr = [shared]; arr[0].x = 2unknownExpected behavior
unknown, like the initializer forms. Orliteral 2if the write is followed. Never a literal that real JS can't produce.Impact and scope
This is a wrong fact, not a lost one. A caller would trust
literal 1. It is not new: 6.3.0 does it too. The same gap shows up in loops.arr[0] = shared; for (const t of arr) t.x = 2givesliteral 1on main and on #1437. That PR fixes the loop form from #1428, so this is a separate root.Interface
CLI. Also seen when calling the analysis function directly.
Earliest failure stage
Native analysis or reconstruction
Not run
Edit: Results for these are in the follow-up. The bug reaches further than this body says. macOS and Windows are still not run.
The MCP surface.Deeper chains likeo.a.b = shared.Maps, sets and class fields.Found while testing #1437. Thanks to N0zoM1z0 for the quick loop fix that led here.

TL;DR: I ran the tests from the Not run list. MCP gives the same wrong
literal 1as the CLI. So do Node 24 and 26. The bug reaches further than I said. Deeper chains, computed keys and spread copies all get it. Maps, sets and class fields stay honest.WRONG:

TL;DR: Fixed on my box too. All 10 wrong forms now give
unknown, notliteral 1. That holds on Node 22, 24 and 26, through the CLI and MCP.The full check is on https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1445. Three right answers turn into
unknown, which is safe. One related form still slips through: a reference that a function call returns. It needs no slot, so I filed it as #1449.Thanks, N0zoM1z0, for the fix in about an hour and a half.
