Code Review
This pull request improves malformed and partial JSON parsing by introducing the isPartialJSON helper and ensuring only PartialJSON errors are caught and handled during partial parsing. It also addresses trailing whitespace issues in arrays by adding skipBlank() calls. However, a similar trailing whitespace issue remains in object parsing (e.g., {"a": 1, }), where blanks are not skipped after a comma, potentially leading to unexpected errors.

While the trailing whitespace issue has been successfully resolved for arrays (by adding skipBlank() after skipping the comma), the same issue still exists for objects.
If an object has trailing whitespace after a comma (e.g., {"a": 1, }), the spaces after the comma are not skipped before the loop condition jsonString[index] !== "}" is checked. This causes the parser to enter the loop and attempt to parse } as a key, leading to an unexpected error.
To fix this, we should also skip blanks after skipping a comma in parseObj:
skipBlank();
if (jsonString[index] === ",") {
index++; // skip comma
skipBlank();

Hey - I've left some high level feedback:
- The new error-handling branches in
parseObjandparseArrboth callmarkPartialJSON(...)and then fall through tothrow e, but sincemarkPartialJSONalready throws, thethrow eis unreachable in theisPartialJSON(e)branch; consider restructuring these catch blocks to avoid redundant/unreachable throws and make the control flow clearer. - The
isPartialJSONhelper centralizes theinstanceofcheck nicely; you might want to use the same pattern anywhere else that currently distinguishesPartialJSONfrom other errors to keep error handling consistent across the parser.

## Overall Comments
- The new error-handling branches in `parseObj` and `parseArr` both call `markPartialJSON(...)` and then fall through to `throw e`, but since `markPartialJSON` already throws, the `throw e` is unreachable in the `isPartialJSON(e)` branch; consider restructuring these catch blocks to avoid redundant/unreachable throws and make the control flow clearer.

I pushed the follow-up changes from the review: object malformed-number coverage, blank skipping after object commas, and a small cleanup to the partial-error catch flow. I couldn’t run the suite locally here, so CI is still the check. |

21-23: ⚡ Quick winConsider adding a parallel array test for consistency.
This test validates that trailing commas with whitespace are handled correctly in objects. For symmetry with the object/array malformed-number tests (lines 5–11), consider adding an equivalent array test:
it("keeps parsing after an array comma with spaces", () => { expect(parse('[1, ]')).toEqual([1]); });This would ensure consistent trailing-comma handling across both structures.

The build blocker is resolved in 025b660: the library build now excludes Vitest source files, and both The follow-up also covers malformed numeric suffixes, missing collection separators/object colons, trailing content after a complete value, and malformed nested values at EOF. Five nested-number cases reproduced the final error-classification bug before its fix. Existing incomplete-input examples and permissive unfinished-string behavior still pass. I updated the PR description to reflect the final change and validation. |

Do not use start to detect an incomplete number.
Line 171 rejects valid strict input with leading whitespace. parse(" 1", 0) sets start to 1, reaches EOF, and throws PartialJSON before JSON.parse(token) can accept 1. Classify only failed numeric tokens with a valid unfinished-number suffix as partial.

Fixes #12 by preserving malformed-input errors instead of silently returning a partial collection.
The final change also covers related malformed-input paths discovered during regression testing:
1evilor a delimited[1e,2]is rejected.tscdoes not emit test code or pull test-runner declarations into the CommonJS build.Existing examples for incomplete collections, partial-type flags, permissive unfinished-string recovery, and trailing-comma handling remain passing. The separate prototype-key PR #20 and package metadata PR #21 are not duplicated here.
