 - `appenders` precedence: `rewriteSpecifier` runs first; if it returns a string, that result is used. If it returns `undefined` or `null`, `appendJsExtension` and `appendDirectoryIndex` still run. Bare specifiers are never modified by appenders.
+- `rewriteTemplateLiterals` (`allow`): when `static-only`, interpolated template literals are left untouched by specifier rewriting; string literals and non-interpolated templates still rewrite.
 - `dirFilename` (`inject`): inject `__dirname`/`__filename`, preserve existing, or throw.
 - `importMeta` (`shim`): rewrite `import.meta.*` to CommonJS equivalents.

 - `dualPackageHazardScope` (`file`): `file` preserves the legacy per-file detector; `project` aggregates package usage across all CLI inputs (useful in monorepos/hoisted installs) and emits one diagnostic per package.

+- `topLevelAwait` (`error`): throw, wrap, or preserve when TLA appears in CommonJS output. `wrap` runs the file body inside an async IIFE (exports may resolve after the initial tick); `preserve` leaves `await` at top level, which Node will reject for CJS.
 - `rewriteSpecifier` (off): rewrite relative specifiers to a chosen extension or via a callback. Precedence: the callback (if provided) runs first; if it returns a string, that wins. If it returns `undefined` or `null`, the appenders still apply.
 - `requireSource` (`builtin`): whether `require` comes from Node or `createRequire`.
 - `cjsDefault` (`auto`): bundler-style default interop vs direct `module.exports`.

+## Potential Breaking Changes (flag/document clearly)
+
+- Template literal specifier rewriting: if we ever default to skipping interpolated `TemplateLiteral` specifiers, it would change outputs. Current implementation is opt-in via `rewriteTemplateLiterals: 'static-only'` (non-breaking); future default flips would need a major/minor note.
+- Cycle detection hardening: expanding extensions (.ts/.tsx/.mts/.cts) and normalize/realpath paths may surface new cycle warnings/errors, especially on Windows or mixed TS/JS projects.
