description	Use when working with Node.js, npm, package.json, or npx. Alternative package managers like Yarn and pnpm as well as monorepo tools like nx, yarn, or turborepo should also use this skill

Node.js

Prefer explicit scripts entries over npx. Write scripts to package.json:

"scripts": {
  "test": "vitest run",
  "dev": "vitest --watch",
  "build": "vite build"
}

Reason: Enforces consistent flags, prevents drift, works better in monorepos.

Use native npm workspaces unless user explicitly chose otherwise (turborepo, nx, pnpm).

Workspace pattern (examples/workspace-setup):

TypeScript project references (examples/tsconfig-references):

Build (examples/vite-build):
