Research direction

Start at the Effect.fnUntraced entry point and compare its public API with Effect.fn, focusing on how the { self: this } overload is represented. Then find the existing tests for these APIs and add coverage showing that class methods can use the proposed form; done means the new usage type-checks and the tests pass.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement
What is the problem this feature would solve?
  • using Effect.fnUntraced() to define class methods (when tracing is not needed)

  • consistency with Effect.fn() API (I ran into this when I realized I didn't need Effect.fn() and refactored some usages to Effect.fnUntraced())

What is the feature you are proposing to solve the problem?

Effect.fnUntraced() should accept a { self: this } overload the same way that Effect.fn() does

What alternatives have you considered?
