npm run build) and tests passing (npm test)npm view <package-name> version
If the package/version already exists, bump the version in package.json before proceeding.

If you don't have a valid token:
https://www.npmjs.com/settings/~/tokens using Playwright browser<package-name>-publishnpm_)npm config set //registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken=<TOKEN>
npm publish --access public
npm view <package-name> version
Confirm the published version matches what you expected.
npm config delete //registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken
This removes the token from your local .npmrc so it is not accidentally leaked.
