* feat: use JSON for npm registry metadata cache instead of msgpack
Switch the on-disk package metadata cache from msgpack (.mpk) to JSON (.json).
When metadata is not filtered, the raw JSON response from the registry is written
directly to disk with cachedAt injected, avoiding a parse-then-serialize round-trip.

## Summary
Replace individual `.mpk` (MessagePack) files under `$STORE/index/` with a single SQLite database at `$STORE/index.db` using Node.js 22's built-in `node:sqlite` module. This reduces filesystem syscall overhead and improves space efficiency for small metadata entries.
Closes#10826
## Design
### New package: `@pnpm/store.index`
A new `StoreIndex` class wraps a SQLite database with a simple key-value API (`get`, `set`, `delete`, `has`, `entries`). Data is serialized with msgpackr and stored as BLOBs. The table uses `WITHOUT ROWID` for compact storage.
Key design decisions:
- **WAL mode** enables concurrent reads from workers while the main process writes.
- **`busy_timeout=5000`** plus a retry loop with `Atomics.wait`-based `sleepSync` handles `SQLITE_BUSY` errors from concurrent access.
- **Performance PRAGMAs**: `synchronous=NORMAL`, `mmap_size=512MB`, `cache_size=32MB`, `temp_store=MEMORY`, `wal_autocheckpoint=10000`.
- **Write batching**: `queueWrites()` batches pre-packed entries from tarball extraction and flushes them in a single transaction on `process.nextTick`. `setRawMany()` writes immediate batches (e.g. from `addFilesFromDir`).
- **Lifecycle**: `close()` auto-flushes pending writes, runs `PRAGMA optimize`, and closes the DB. A `process.on('exit')` handler ensures cleanup even on unexpected exits.
- **`VACUUM` after `deleteMany`** (used by `pnpm store prune`) to reclaim disk space.
### Key format
Keys are `integrity\tpkgId` (tab-separated). Git-hosted packages use `pkgId\tbuilt` or `pkgId\tnot-built`.
### Shared StoreIndex instance
A single `StoreIndex` instance is threaded through the entire install lifecycle — from `createNewStoreController` through the fetcher chain, package requester, license scanner, SBOM collector, and dependencies hierarchy. This replaces the previous pattern of each component creating its own file-based index access.
### Worker architecture
Index writes are performed in the main process, not in worker threads. Workers send pre-packed `{ key, buffer }` pairs back to the main process via `postMessage`, where they are batched and flushed to SQLite. This avoids SQLite write contention between threads.
### SQLite ExperimentalWarning suppression
`node:sqlite` emits an `ExperimentalWarning` on first load. This is suppressed via a `process.emitWarning` override injected through esbuild's `banner` option, which runs on line 1 of both `dist/pnpm.mjs` and `dist/worker.js` — before any module that loads `node:sqlite`.
### No migration from `.mpk` files
Old `.mpk` index files are not migrated. Packages missing from the new SQLite index are re-fetched on demand (the same behavior as a fresh store).
## Changed packages
121 files changed across these areas:
- **`store/index/`** — New `@pnpm/store.index` package
- **`worker/`** — Write batching moved from worker module into `StoreIndex` class; workers send pre-packed buffers to main process
- **`store/package-store/`** — StoreIndex creation and lifecycle management
- **`store/cafs/`** — Removed `getFilePathInCafs` index-file utilities (no longer needed)
- **`store/pkg-finder/`** — Reads from StoreIndex instead of `.mpk` files
- **`store/plugin-commands-store/`** — `store status` uses StoreIndex
- **`store/plugin-commands-store-inspecting/`** — `cat-index` and `find-hash` use StoreIndex
- **`fetching/tarball-fetcher/`** — Threads StoreIndex through fetchers; git-hosted fetcher flushes before reading
- **`fetching/git-fetcher/`, `binary-fetcher/`, `pick-fetcher/`** — Accept StoreIndex parameter
- **`pkg-manager/`** — `client`, `core`, `headless`, `package-requester` thread StoreIndex
- **`reviewing/`** — `license-scanner`, `sbom`, `dependencies-hierarchy` accept StoreIndex
- **`cache/api/`** — Cache view uses StoreIndex
- **`pnpm/bundle.ts`** — esbuild banner for ExperimentalWarning suppression
## Test plan
- [x] `pnpm --filter @pnpm/store.index test` — Unit tests for StoreIndex CRUD and batching
- [x] `pnpm --filter @pnpm/package-store test` — Store controller lifecycle
- [x] `pnpm --filter @pnpm/package-requester test` — Package requester reads from SQLite index
- [x] `pnpm --filter @pnpm/tarball-fetcher test` — Tarball and git-hosted fetcher writes
- [x] `pnpm --filter @pnpm/headless test` — Headless install
- [x] `pnpm --filter @pnpm/core test` — Core install, side effects, patching
- [x] `pnpm --filter @pnpm/plugin-commands-rebuild test` — Rebuild reads from index
- [x] `pnpm --filter @pnpm/license-scanner test` — License scanning
- [x] e2e tests pass

* fix(npm-resolver): respect version constraints when falling back to workspace packages
When link-workspace-packages=true, the fallback resolution paths (registry 404
and no matching registry version) pass update: Boolean(opts.update) to
tryResolveFromWorkspacePackages. On fresh installs without a lockfile entry,
opts.update is 'compatible' (truthy), which overrides the version spec to '*'
and matches any workspace package regardless of version.
Change both fallback call sites to pass update: false so version constraints
are always respected for non-workspace-protocol dependencies. The workspace:
protocol path returns before these blocks and correctly continues to use
opts.update.
Close#10173
* test: clarify npm-resolver test names for workspace version mismatch scenarios

This PR overhauls `pnpm env` use to route through pnpm's own install machinery instead of maintaining a parallel code path with manual symlink/shim/hardlink logic.
```
pnpm env use -g <version>
```
now runs:
```
pnpm add --global node@runtime:<version>
```
via `@pnpm/exec.pnpm-cli-runner`. All manual symlink, hardlink, and cmd-shim code in `envUse.ts` is gone (~1000 lines removed across the package).
### Changes
**npm and npx shims on all platforms**
Added `getNodeBinsForCurrentOS(platform)` to `@pnpm/constants`, returning a `Record<string, string>` with the correct relative paths for `node`, `npm`, and `npx` inside a Node.js distribution. `BinaryResolution.bin` is widened from `string` to `string | Record<string, string>` in `@pnpm/resolver-base` and `@pnpm/lockfile.types`, so the node resolver can set all three entries and pnpm's bin-linker creates shims for each automatically.
**Windows npm/npx fix**
`addFilesFromDir` was skipping root-level `node_modules/` (to avoid storing a package's own dependencies), which stripped the bundled `npm` from Node.js Windows zip archives. Added an `includeNodeModules` option and enabled it from the binary fetcher so Windows distributions keep their full contents.
**Removed subcommands**
`pnpm env add` and `pnpm env remove` are removed. `pnpm env use` handles both installing and activating a version. `pnpm env list` now always lists remote versions (the `--remote` flag is no longer required, though it is kept for backwards compatibility).
**musl support**
On Alpine Linux and other musl-based systems, the musl variant of Node.js is automatically downloaded from [unofficial-builds.nodejs.org](https://unofficial-builds.nodejs.org).
* fix: force re-fetch when resolution integrity changes
When a resolver returns a resolution with a different integrity than
the current package's resolution, automatically force re-fetching the
package. This allows custom resolvers to trigger re-fetches by simply
returning the updated integrity, without needing to explicitly set
a forceFetch flag.
Closes#10451
