• Is your test running fine brew test <formula>?
• Does your build pass brew audit --strict <formula> (after doing HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 brew install --build-from-source <formula>)? If this is a new formula, does it pass brew audit --new <formula>?

• I did not use AI/LLM to create this PR, or I disclosed the tool/model below and reviewed its output; I did not attribute commits to AI and will answer maintainer questions and review comments myself without AI/LLM.

AI-assisted contribution by Claude Code (Claude Opus 5) of ~85% of the work: the AI wrote the formula and ran brew style, HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 brew install --build-from-source, brew test, brew audit --strict --new and brew linkage --test on my machine. I reviewed the formula and those results before opening this PR, and will answer maintainer questions and review comments myself. The commit carries no AI attribution trailer.

Built and tested locally on macOS 26.6.2 running arm64.

fastplong is the long-read counterpart to fastp, from the same authors, and shares its dependency set (highway, isa-l, libdeflate).

The test writes a two-read FASTQ where the second read has a low-quality head, runs the trimmer, then parses the emitted report.json to assert the input read count, so it exercises the FASTQ output and the JSON/HTML reporting rather than just the binary starting up.

Status update: the upstream fix for the make install workaround is now open at OpenGene/fastplong#44 (install does not create $(BINDIR), so it fails on a fresh prefix). The same patch is open for fastp, which carries the identical Makefile: OpenGene/fastp#714

Once either lands in a release, the mkdir prefix/"bin" line here can go. CI is green on all platforms.

Updated to 0.7.1, released today, which is the first tag containing the upstream fix (OpenGene/fastplong#44, merged on 2026-09-04). Its install target now creates $(BINDIR) itself:

install:
	mkdir -p $(BINDIR)
	install $(TARGET) $(BINDIR)/$(TARGET)

So the mkdir prefix/"bin" line is gone from the formula; nothing is patched here any more. Built from source, brew test and brew audit --new --strict --online pass on macOS 26.6.2 arm64, stable and --HEAD.

The same Makefile bug exists in fastp, fixed by OpenGene/fastp#714 (merged), but no release carries it yet, so Formula/f/fastp.rb still needs its own mkdir for now.
