prefer-native-random-uuid

Prefer globalThis.crypto.randomUUID() over resolved zero-argument UUID v4 bindings from the uuid package.

preferNativereplaceWithNative Rule source Tests Catalog JSON

Why

The platform implementation avoids an unnecessary dependency for standard random UUID generation.

Fix

Call globalThis.crypto.randomUUID() and remove the unused uuid v4 import when possible.

Examples

Before — flagged Do not call uuid v4 without options

src/id.ts

import { v4 } from "uuid";
const id = v4();

After — preferred Use the platform UUID generator

src/id.ts

const id = globalThis.crypto.randomUUID();
