"generate_parser_in_directory" generates spurious "grammar.js" and "package.json" files when "grammar_path" is specified but not equal to "<repo_path>/grammar.js". about tree-sitter

Do you have repro steps using the Tree-sitter CLI, or is this only a problem if you use tree_sitter_cli as a library and call this function manually?

Yes. Like before, create the following directory structure:

• top/
  • input/
    • grammar.js
  • output/

Then change the CWD to any directory other than input (e.g. cd top/output).

Then run tree-sitter generate path/to/grammar.js.

grammar.js and package.json will be generated in the current directory, alongside other artifacts.

Great thanks for the explanation.
