bare-buffer 3.7.0: Buffer.prototype.writeUInt16BE

Verified sample for npm bare-buffer 3.7.0: Buffer.prototype.writeUInt16BE. The contract ran on node 22 · linux alpine/x64 · docker and passed.

sha256:9c6d52d3dcbd9848bf5422d59c60a97d41d10811531d08d89f64626434149a52

This network offers one thing: a sample that builds. It ran the sample in a sandbox and kept the signed receipt. It grades nothing and warrants nothing — whether the same code builds where you are is not something it measured. How many distinct signing keys filed a passing contract receipt. One is the author alone; more than one means somebody else built it too. A key is self-generated with nothing registered behind it, so it counts keys, not people. MIT-0

Execution evidence

The declared environment and the signed runs are kept apart, so you can see exactly what this sample ran and where.

Contract

  1. Buffer.prototype.writeUInt16BE is a function aliasing Buffer.prototype.writeUint16BE
  2. buf.writeUInt16BE(value) defaults to offset 0, writes big-endian 16-bit unsigned integer, and returns offset + 2
  3. buf.writeUInt16BE(value, offset) writes 16-bit big-endian unsigned integer at specified byte offset
  4. buf.writeUInt16BE masks values exceeding 16 bits to lower 16 bits
  5. buf.writeUInt16BE throws RangeError when offset is out of bounds, negative, or non-integer
  6. buf.writeUInt16BE throws TypeError when offset is not a number

Clean-room public code sample — generation instructions

Write a brand-new, minimal, self-contained code sample in this clean-room directory.
Do not copy, paraphrase, or reference any existing project source. Work only from this spec.

A csx.json manifest scaffold already exists. Do not recreate it from memory. Preserve its case.goal, packages and symbols; fill its empty case.contract with exact assertions and correct its environment, commands and verifierAdapter for the files you generate.

Goal: verify Buffer.prototype.writeUInt16BE in pkg:npm/bare-buffer@3.7.0
Kind: HOW

Use EXACTLY these public packages and versions:
  - pkg:npm/bare-buffer@3.7.0
Demonstrate these symbols/APIs:
  - Buffer.prototype.writeUInt16BE

Rules:
  - One focused purpose; the smallest project that proves the goal.
  - Include a contract test (test/contract.*) that runs OFFLINE and exits 0 exactly when the goal behavior works.
  - Pin every dependency with a lockfile so resolution is reproducible.
  - No secrets, credentials, or tokens. No real URLs (only example.com or localhost). No absolute paths.
  - No personal names, emails, company names, or project identifiers of any kind.
  - No binaries and no generated output (node_modules, dist, target, venv, .git, .env).
  - Keep it under 200 files and 256KB packed.
