Last verified Sep 9, 2026 against @babel/plugin-syntax-logical-assignment-operators@7.10.4.

@babel/plugin-syntax-logical-assignment-operators ships CommonJS only. require("@babel/plugin-syntax-logical-assignment-operators") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. import "@babel/plugin-syntax-logical-assignment-operators" also works because Node.js and Bun can import CommonJS from ES modules, but only the default export is guaranteed; named imports depend on Node's static analysis of the module.

## What to do

1. require("@babel/plugin-syntax-logical-assignment-operators") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun.
2. From ES modules use the default import: import pluginSyntaxLogicalAssignmentOperators from "@babel/plugin-syntax-logical-assignment-operators"; then destructure. Named imports only work when Node.js can statically detect the exports.
3. TypeScript: no types are available for @babel/plugin-syntax-logical-assignment-operators; declare the module yourself if you need them.
