Builds sneak's ruling at #149 (comment). Each repository commits yarn 4's release file. The distribution's yarn only starts that file, and that file does the work.
This repository is converted now: .yarn/releases/yarn-4.18.1.cjs, .yarnrc.yml, and yarn.lock in yarn 4's format. script/bootstrap installs with --immutable and no longer stops on yarn's major version. Node is the distribution's newest Node package: nodejs-current on Alpine and nodejs_latest on nix. The policies and both checklists say this, with steps for converting and for a new repository.
What the diff does not show
yarn 1 ignores --immutable and exits 0. A repository therefore takes the new script/bootstrap and its conversion in one commit.
Product repositories convert when they next have work. The template repositories that README.md names take this change under #78.
Disclosures
Judgement call: enableTelemetry: false, because yarn's documentation says it otherwise sends usage reports from any host that is not CI.
Judgement call: converting a yarn 1 lockfile also writes approvedGitRepositories: ["**"], enableScripts: true and npmMinimalAgeGate: 0. Neither the ruling nor the brief names them, and they relax yarn 4's defaults, so this repository and the conversion steps delete them. A dependency that must run its install script is named under dependenciesMeta. sneak can reverse this by keeping the three lines.
Partially verified: brew is not on this host, so its path in script/bootstrap is the only one that did not run.
On nix, nixpkgs' yarn runs on its own fixed Node, which is older than nodejs_latest.

script/bootstrap:83 installs nodejs on nix. nixpkgs defines that as Node 24, and nodejs_latest as Node 26. #149 (comment) and prompts/REPO_POLICIES.md:59 both say the distribution's newest Node package, so the brief's note that nix's name is already the newest does not hold. Acceptable: pkg_install nodejs_latest nodejs node nodejs-current.
.dockerignore:61-62: !.yarn/releases comes after the secret patterns and overrides them, so a .key or .env file under .yarn/releases/ reaches the build context. Acceptable: both lines sit above the first secret pattern, and step 7 in prompts/EXISTING_REPO_CHECKLIST.md says to put them above the secret patterns in .gitignore and .dockerignore, since "add" reads as append.
prompts/REPO_POLICIES.md:146: "Under these settings yarn runs no package's install script." is false, because a repository's own postinstall still runs. The listed settings also do not cause this; it is yarn's default. Acceptable: "By default, yarn runs no dependency's install script."
README.md:179-181 and README.md:190-191 say the template repositories "must be kept in sync when policies change" and "When updating policies in this repo, also update the template repos to match". This PR changes required files and Dockerfile conventions and leaves those repositories untouched, so the README is now wrong. Acceptable: a short README sentence saying when a template repository takes a policy change.
.gitignore:25: "Unanchored like every entry above" is now false, because .yarn/* and !.yarn/releases sit above it and are anchored at the root. Acceptable: a corrected short comment.
prompts/REPO_POLICIES.md:1137 and prompts/EXISTING_REPO_CHECKLIST.md:167: the lists of JS files omit .gitattributes, though prompts/REPO_POLICIES.md:150 requires its line. A repository can pass the checklist without it. Acceptable: add it to both lists.

Acceptable, for example: "The distribution's yarn only starts that file, and that file does the work."
The tracker reports that this PR cannot merge into current next, because #152 also added the top entry in TODO.md. Acceptable: rebase, with this PR's entry on top.

Judgement call: the ruling names only product repositories, so I read the README's rule on template repositories as still standing. If the owner wants them updated now, doing that also resolves finding 4.
Judgement call: yarn add --dev prettier writes a ^ range to package.json. I took the version and checksum in yarn.lock as the pin, so this is not a finding.

One addition, from me: prompts/EXISTING_REPO_CHECKLIST.md labels the conversion JS:, but a Go or docs repository with a yarn.lock needs it too. Label that item for any repository with yarn.lock. Give the first-time item in prompts/NEW_REPO_CHECKLIST.md the same reach: JS, or any repository that runs prettier through yarn.
One line in the PR body: on nix, nixpkgs' yarn runs on its own fixed Node, which is older than nodejs_latest.

Follows sneak's ruling at
#149 (comment). This
repository now carries yarn 4.18.1 under .yarn/releases. The
distribution's yarn only starts that file, and that file does the work.
yarn.lock is converted once, and script/bootstrap installs with
--immutable instead of stopping on yarn's major version. Node is the
distribution's newest Node package: nodejs-current on Alpine and
nodejs_latest on nix. Every Dockerfile stage that needs yarn also copies
.yarnrc.yml and .yarn/releases/. The policies and both checklists say
so, with the steps for converting and for a new repository.
