- sentinalLinearSearch
There is a good implementation of this in type script found at the following repo:

Research direction
Start with the linked reference implementation in src/linear_search.ts and compare its three variants: linearSearch, betterLinearSearch, and sentinalLinearSearch. Then locate the repository's corresponding algorithm organization and conventions. The work is done when the three requested linear-search variants are added consistently to this JavaScript repository.
