p-limit 7.3.1: Cap how many async tasks run at once with p-limit

Verified sample for npm p-limit 7.3.1: Cap how many async tasks run at once with p-limit. The contract ran on node 22 · linux alpine/x64 · docker and passed.

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. wrap each task with a limiter of concurrency 2
  2. assert no more than 2 tasks were ever in flight
  3. assert every task still ran and results keep input order
