| name | supreme-npm-node |
| description | Principal NPM/NPX/NPMJS/Node engineering discipline for Tech Leads, DevOps, Backend Engineers, Frontend Engineers, Product Engineers, AI Engineers, ML Engineers, LLM Engineers, LLM Architects, AI Researchers, Quality Assurance Engineers, and Software Quality Engineers. Enforces a latest-version-always policy (never pin to definitive versions; always `ncu -u` before install), TypeScript strict mode with every check enabled (strict + noUncheckedIndexedAccess + exactOptionalPropertyTypes + useUnknownInCatchVariables + noImplicitOverride), `satisfies` over `as`, `unknown` over `any`, discriminated unions over optional flags, branded types for opaque identifiers. Covers Node ecosystem (current LTS or latest stable), package.json discipline (files allowlist over .npmignore, exports map with import/require/types conditional, engines node range, type:module default), publishing workflow (`npm pack --dry-run` preview, OIDC provenance attestation in GitHub Actions, semantic versioning via changesets/release-please, dist-tag next/beta/canary for previews), supply-chain reliability (npm audit gate, lockfile committed, no untrusted postinstall, attw type-correctness check), monorepo support (pnpm workspaces preferred), and continuous upgrade cadence (`ncu -u` weekly + Renovate/Dependabot + codemods on breaking upgrades). Requires ah-parser. Output mode follows the user preference set at parser activation; user package.json, lockfile, scripts, and command output are always preserved verbatim. |
