Summary

This adds useStrictBooleanExpressions, which is a port of https://typescript-eslint.io/rules/strict-boolean-expressions/

I chose not to implement any of the options for now. There's a lot of them, and even though they are mostly escape hatches, it would increase the complexity of the rule a lot.

Review Change StackReview Change Stack

Walkthrough

Adds the nursery useStrictBooleanExpressions rule. The change introduces boolean-coercion type classification, assertion inference support, rule options, diagnostics, context detection, array predicate handling, and truthiness assertion handling. It also adds valid and invalid fixtures plus a patch changeset.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 60a2f

The rule implementation is broadly mergeable, but its metadata and accompanying public documentation should be corrected to satisfy repository guidance.

"@biomejs/biome": patch
---

Added the nursery rule [`useStrictBooleanExpressions`](https://biomejs.dev/linter/rules/use-strict-boolean-expressions/), which reports ambiguous truthiness checks such as `if (value)` when `value` has type `number | undefined`. Non-nullable strings and numbers and nullable objects are allowed; the rule has no options.

Add rustdoc at the public definitions.

BooleanCoercion already has enum-level rustdoc. Add concise rustdoc for each variant in crates/biome_js_type_info/src/inferred_type/boolean_coercion.rs; do not document the re-export in lib.rs. Add rustdoc above UseStrictBooleanExpressionsOptions in crates/biome_rule_options/src/use_strict_boolean_expressions.rs to state that the rule has no configurable options.

Set the rule language metadata to js.

UseStrictBooleanExpressions documents JavaScript cases and includes invalid.js. Its query already runs with JsLanguage, so language: "ts" does not exclude JavaScript at runtime. The metadata still contradicts the contributor guidance for rules that apply to JavaScript.

Proposed fix
-        language: "ts",
+        language: "js",
📝 Committable suggestion

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.
