Release Highlights

Language Server

• The VS Code extension now runs the Pyrefly from your environment. By default, the extension launches the Pyrefly installed in your active Python environment (for example, your project's .venv), so your editor and your command line use the same version. If the environment has no Pyrefly, the extension falls back to its bundled binary. Set pyrefly.pyreflyExecutable to bundled to keep the old behavior. See Pyrefly binary selection.

Configuration & CLI

• uv workspace members are now type checked. In a uv workspace, the interpreter puts each member's source directory on sys.path as an editable install. Pyrefly treated those directories as installed packages and skipped them, so errors in workspace members went unreported. Pyrefly now checks editable sources inside your project, while regular site-packages stay excluded.

Type Checking

• Easier migration from BasedPyright. Pyrefly reads basedpyright sections in pyproject.toml and applies the matching type checking mode preset.
• New opt-in checks for untyped code. New error kinds such as unknown-member-type, unknown-return-type, untyped-function-decorator, and uninitialized-instance-variable help you find where Any enters your code.

Tensor Shapes

• JAX shape stubs on PyPI. This is the first stable release that ships JAX shape stubs as the jax-pyrefly-stubs package.

⚠️ Behavior Changes

These may change your editor setup or surface new errors in code that checked cleanly under v1.3.0.

• The VS Code extension now uses the Pyrefly in your active environment by default instead of its bundled binary. If your environment pins an older Pyrefly, the editor now runs that version. The Pyrefly language server output channel shows which binary was chosen and why.
• Pyrefly now checks the source of uv workspace members (editable installs inside your project). Errors in those packages that were hidden before can now appear.
• --typeshed-path now replaces the bundled typeshed entirely instead of overlaying it.
• The incompatible-overload-residual error kind is renamed to incompatible-overload-argument. The old name still works as a deprecated alias.
• site-package-path is renamed to site-packages-path. The old name still works.

✨ New & Improved

Type Checking

• Pyrefly now recognizes basedpyright configuration sections in pyproject.toml and applies appropriate type checking mode presets, making it easier to migrate from BasedPyright.
• TypedDict handling has been significantly improved: generic extra_items are now instantiated correctly, extra items can supply missing arguments, and definitely_seen calculation in callable checking has been fixed.
• TypeVar restriction checking is now enforced even when the expected type is gradual, preventing silent violations of TypeVar bounds and constraints when Any appears in the expected type.
• Improved handling of overloaded function arguments in generic function calls through a new overload table mechanism, replacing the previous residual-based approach. The incompatible-overload-residual error kind has been renamed to incompatible-overload-argument (the old name remains as a deprecated alias).
• Variance inference has been improved with fixes for nested variance reliability bugs and explicit stored variance evidence.
• Property decorator validation now reports invalid signatures with extra required parameters.

Dependabot (@dependabot)[bot], thanks for the update. This PR has the same complete pyrefly 1.3.2 → 1.4.0 diff as the older #9838, so I’m closing this duplicate and keeping the earlier PR as the single update.

[dependabot]

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
