npm

name	npm
description	Installs, upgrades, and removes Node.js/npm dependencies, runs scripts, executes packages, and manages package workflows. MUST USE this skill for any task involving npm, npx, pnpm, yarn, or bun, including package.json dependency changes, lockfile updates, install/update/uninstall actions, and script execution.

Commands

Command	Description	Example
ni, ni <pkg>, ni -D <pkg>	Install dependency, devDependency	ni, ni react, ni -D @types/react
nup, nup <pkg>	Upgrade dependencies	nup, nup react
nun <pkg>	Uninstall dependency	nun react
nr <script>	Run npm script	nr lint, nr test
nlx <pkg>	Execute npm package (npx)	nlx tsc

Rules

• NEVER use npm, pnpm, yarn, or bun directly unless explicitly instructed. USE the commands mentioned above.
• Prefer existing package.json scripts via nr <script> (e.g. lint, typecheck, format) over running tools directly with nlx/npx when available. For example, use nr lint instead of nlx eslint or nr typecheck instead of nlx tsc. Use nlx <tool> when package.json has no matching script.
