Linear: CAP-4840

What

Switches the repo from npm to pnpm.

  • pnpm-lock.yaml replaces package-lock.json. It was created with pnpm import, so dependency versions are unchanged.
  • packageManager: pnpm@10.10.0, so pnpm/action-setup and corepack use the same version.
  • CI and Release install with pnpm install --frozen-lockfile and cache the pnpm store.
  • The Release workflow still runs npm publish, because npm does the trusted-publishing (OIDC) exchange. prepublishOnly runs typecheck and tests through pnpm.
  • README and AGENTS.md dev commands use pnpm. End users can install with npm or pnpm; the published package doesn't change.

Verification

  • pnpm install --frozen-lockfile, pnpm typecheck and pnpm test (33 passed) locally; pnpm dev --version works.
  • npm publish --dry-run: prepublishOnly runs through pnpm, and the tarball has the same 17 files as before.
  • CI on this PR runs the pnpm setup on Node 22 and 24. The Release workflow can only be tested by the next tag.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation

    • Updated installation and development instructions to support pnpm alongside npm.
    • Updated verification guidance for testing, type checking, builds, and CLI development.
  • Chores

    • Standardized automated checks and publishing preparation on pnpm.
    • Added the required pnpm version to the package configuration.
    • Improved installation reproducibility and enabled dependency caching for automated checks.

- pnpm-lock.yaml (imported from package-lock.json, same versions) replaces package-lock.json
- packageManager pins pnpm 10.10.0; prepublishOnly runs through pnpm
- CI and Release install with pnpm; Release still publishes with npm, which does
  the trusted-publishing (OIDC) exchange
- README and AGENTS.md dev commands use pnpm

📝 Walkthrough

The package manifest now declares pnpm 10.10.0, and the prepublishOnly checks use pnpm. The CI and release workflows set up pnpm and install dependencies with a frozen lockfile. CI runs type checking and tests through pnpm; the release workflow continues to publish with npm. The README and development instructions now show pnpm commands.

Disable pnpm caching in the publish job as release hardening.

npm’s Trusted Publishing guidance recommends disabling package-manager caching in release workflows. This cache stores pnpm’s global store, not node_modules, and the frozen lockfile records package integrity values. The cache therefore does not bypass dependency integrity checks, but removing it avoids relying on a writable dependency cache in an OIDC-enabled job. Keep caching in CI.

Suggested fix
           node-version: 24
           registry-url: https://registry.npmjs.org
-          cache: pnpm

The job holds the npm trusted-publishing (OIDC) token, so it should not
restore a cache other workflow runs can write to. CI keeps its cache.
