This is consistent with #9358, but implements support for the GitHub Packages npm registry and, more broadly, for vlt-style https://docs.vlt.sh/cli/registries for any registry.
This PR adds a built-in gh: specifier that resolves against the GitHub Packages npm registry, plus a namedRegistries config key so a project can map its own aliases to arbitrary registries. A project can mix public npm packages and private GitHub Packages (or self-hosted) ones without applying a scope-wide registry override to every @scope/* package.
- pnpm add gh:@acme/private writes "@acme/private": "gh:^1.0.0" and resolves from https://npm.pkg.github.com/.
- pnpm add gh:@acme/private@^1.0.0 (with or without an alias) is also supported. Aliased form writes "my-alias": "gh:@acme/private@^1.0.0".
- Auth comes from the existing per-URL .npmrc mechanism, e.g. //npm.pkg.github.com/:_authToken=${GITHUB_TOKEN}. No new auth surface.
- @github is intentionally not defaulted to https://npm.pkg.github.com/ - hardcoding that would hijack installs of the public @github/* packages on npmjs.org (e.g. @github/relative-time-element) for users without a scope-wide override. Use gh: to install from GitHub Packages, or configure @github:registry=... yourself if that's really what you want.
- Additional named registries (a self-hosted proxy, GitHub Enterprise Server, etc.) can be configured in pnpm-workspace.yaml:
```yml
namedRegistries:
gh: https://npm.pkg.github.example.com/ # optional: overrides the built-in `gh` alias for GHES
work: https://npm.work.example.com/
```
- Then work:@corp/lib@^2.0.0 resolves against https://npm.work.example.com/, and the built-in gh alias can be redirected to a GHES host.
- Env-var substitution (${VAR}) is supported in namedRegistries values, mirroring the .npmrc convention.
- Reserved alias names (npm, jsr, github, workspace, catalog, file, git, http, https, link, patch, and related git host shorthands) cannot be redefined as user-named registries - the resolver throws ERR_PNPM_RESERVED_NAMED_REGISTRY_ALIAS at startup rather than silently shadowing another protocol. Malformed URLs throw ERR_PNPM_INVALID_NAMED_REGISTRY_URL at startup too, instead of failing as a confusing 404 during resolution.
- On publish, createExportableManifest strips any named-registry prefix (both the built-in gh: and any user-configured alias) so npm and yarn consumers can still resolve the dependency via their own scope-registry configuration - mirroring the user-facing requirement when installing such a dep without the prefix.
The prefix is gh: rather than github: because github: is reserved by npm-package-arg / hosted-git-info as a git host shorthand (e.g. github:owner/repo) - reusing it would be a deviation from the specs used by the npm CLI. gh: is shorter, matches vlt's convention, and cannot collide with any existing npm scheme.
Unlike jsr:, gh: (and any other named-registry alias) does not rewrite the package name - gh:@acme/foo resolves @acme/foo from the GitHub Packages registry as-is. This also means npm/yarn consumers see the original name after the prefix is stripped on publish.

Library packages had `prepublishOnly: pn compile`, which expands to
`tsgo --build && pn lint --fix`. During `pn release` that runs eslint
against ~150 packages for no benefit — the code has already been linted
in CI and the release flow's upfront compile has already built dist/.
Switch lib prepublishOnly to a bare `tsgo --build` so the safety-net
compile stays but the per-package eslint cost is gone.
Skips the minimumReleaseAge maturity check when the registry metadata
lacks the "time" field, instead of throwing ERR_PNPM_MISSING_TIME.
Defaults to true, and prints a warning once per affected package.
- Adds a new `minimumReleaseAgeStrict` setting (default: `false`)
- When `false` (default), pnpm falls back to versions that don't meet the `minimumReleaseAge` constraint if no mature versions satisfy the range being resolved
- Set to `true` to preserve the previous strict behavior (error when no mature version matches)
* refactor(config): split Config interface into settings + runtime context
Create ConfigContext for runtime state (hooks, finders, workspace graph,
CLI metadata) and keep Config for user-facing settings only. Functions
use Pick<Config, ...> & Pick<ConfigContext, ...> to express which fields
they need from each interface.
getConfig() now returns { config, context, warnings }. The CLI wrapper
returns { config, context } and spreads both when calling command
handlers (to be refactored to separate params in follow-up PRs).
Closes#11195
* fix: address review feedback
- Initialize cliOptions on pnpmConfig so context.cliOptions is never undefined
- Move rootProjectManifestDir assignment before ignoreLocalSettings guard
- Add allProjectsGraph to INTERNAL_CONFIG_KEYS
* refactor: remove INTERNAL_CONFIG_KEYS from configToRecord
configToRecord now accepts Config and ConfigContext separately, so
context fields are never in scope. Only auth-related Config fields
(authConfig, authInfos, sslConfigs) need filtering.
* refactor: eliminate INTERNAL_CONFIG_KEYS from configToRecord
configToRecord now receives the clean Config object and explicitlySetKeys
separately (via opts.config and opts.context), so context fields are
never in scope. main.ts passes the original split objects alongside
the spread for command handlers that need them.
* fix: spelling
* fix: import sorting
* fix: --config.xxx nconf overrides conflicting with --config CLI flag
When `pnpm add` registers `config: Boolean`, nopt captures
--config.xxx=yyy as the --config flag value instead of treating it
as a nconf-style config override. Fix by extracting --config.xxx args
before nopt parsing and re-parsing them separately.
Also rename the split config/context properties on the command opts
object to _config/_context to avoid clashing with the --config CLI option.
Major cleanup of the config system after migrating settings from `.npmrc` to `pnpm-workspace.yaml`.
### Config reader simplification
- Remove `checkUnknownSetting` (dead code, always `false`)
- Trim `npmConfigTypes` from ~127 to ~67 keys (remove unused npm config keys)
- Replace `rcOptions` iteration over all type keys with direct construction from defaults + auth overlay
- Remove `rcOptionsTypes` parameter from `getConfig()` and its assembly chain
### Rename `rawConfig` to `authConfig`
- `rawConfig` was a confusing mix of auth data and general settings
- Non-auth settings are already on the typed `Config` object — stop duplicating them in `rawConfig`
- Rename `rawConfig` → `authConfig` across the codebase to clarify it only contains auth/registry data from `.npmrc`
### Remove `rawConfig` from non-auth consumers
- **Lifecycle hooks**: replace `rawConfig: object` with `userAgent?: string` — only user-agent was read
- **Fetchers**: remove unused `rawConfig` from git fetcher, binary fetcher, tarball fetcher, prepare-package
- **Update command**: use `opts.production/dev/optional` instead of `rawConfig.*`
- **`pnpm init`**: accept typed init properties instead of parsing `rawConfig`
### Add `nodeDownloadMirrors` setting
- New `nodeDownloadMirrors?: Record<string, string>` on `PnpmSettings` and `Config`
- Replaces the `node-mirror:<channel>` pattern that was stored in `rawConfig`
- Configured in `pnpm-workspace.yaml`:
```yaml
nodeDownloadMirrors:
release: https://my-mirror.example.com/download/release/
```
- Remove unused `rawConfig` from deno-resolver and bun-resolver
### Refactor `pnpm config get/list`
- New `configToRecord()` builds display data from typed Config properties on the fly
- Excludes sensitive internals (`authInfos`, `sslConfigs`, etc.)
- Non-types keys (e.g., `package-extensions`) resolve through `configToRecord` instead of direct property access
- Delete `processConfig.ts` (replaced by `configToRecord.ts`)
### Pre-push hook improvement
- Add `compile-only` (`tsgo --build`) to pre-push hook to catch type errors before push
* perf: use abbreviated metadata for minimumReleaseAge when possible
Instead of always fetching full package metadata when minimumReleaseAge
is set, fetch the smaller abbreviated document first and check the
top-level `modified` field. If the package was last modified before the
release age cutoff, all versions are mature and no per-version time
filtering is needed. Only re-fetch full metadata for the rare case of
recently-modified packages.
Also uses fs.stat() to check cache file mtime instead of reading and
parsing the JSON to check cachedAt, avoiding unnecessary I/O.
* fix: validate modified date and handle abbreviated metadata edge cases
- Validate meta.modified date to prevent invalid dates from bypassing
minimumReleaseAge filtering
- Skip full metadata refetch for packages excluded by publishedByExclude
- Allow ERR_PNPM_MISSING_TIME from cached abbreviated metadata to fall
through to the network fetch path instead of throwing
* fix: cache abbreviated metadata before re-fetching full metadata
Save the abbreviated metadata to disk before re-fetching full metadata
so subsequent runs benefit from the mtime cache fast-path.
* fix: resolve type narrowing for conditional metadata fetch result

* fix: revert tempy to 3.0.0 to fix bundle hang
tempy 3.2.0 pulls in temp-dir 3.0.0 which uses async fs.realpath()
inside its module init. When bundled by esbuild into the __esm lazy
init pattern, this causes a deadlock during module initialization,
making the pnpm binary hang silently on startup.
Keeping tempy at 3.0.0 which uses temp-dir 2.x (sync fs.realpathSync).
