Unfortunately, PegJS documentation is no longer available directly, but it can be found here: http://web.archive.org/web/20240102234657/https://pegjs.org/documentation. Take a look under "Parsing Expression Types"

& expression
Try to match the expression. If the match succeeds, just return undefined and do not consume any input, otherwise consider the match failed.

In other words, the &{ return !hasRecognizedFields || recognizedFields.includes(id); } is a predicate check that determines whether the rule succeeds or fails. This check ensures that if hasRecognizedFields is truthy, then there is a restriction that the identifier must be included in the recognizedFields array to be treated as a field name. If the predicate passes, then the identifier is parsed as a field name. If the predicate does not pass, then the fieldName match is failed and the parser falls back to using the identifier rule.

By the way, I used Microsoft Copilot to explain this to me and help me with updating the parsing rules. If it wasn't for that, I am sure I would not have been able to figure it out.

I checked the docs as they appear in source control, to double-check:

https://github.com/pegjs/pegjs/blob/master/docs/grammar/parsing-expression-types.md#--predicate-

So this looks good.
