Fixes #11818 ## Summary `devEngines.runtime` / `engines.runtime` entries with `onFail: error` or `warn` silently did nothing — only `onFail: download` had any effect. This PR wires up validation for all three supported runtimes (node, deno, bun). - Add `getSystemDenoVersion` / `getSystemBunVersion` and a generic `getSystemRuntimeVersion(name)` dispatcher in the runtime-version helper package. - Walk each runtime entry in the manifest during pnpm startup, compare to the live system runtime, and throw `ERR_PNPM_BAD_RUNTIME_VERSION` (or warn) on a mismatch. Invalid ranges (e.g. `"invalid range"`) are reported instead of crashing `semver.minVersion`. Missing runtimes ("no Node.js on the system") get the same error path. - The shell-out for deno/bun only runs when the manifest configures them AND `onFail` is `error`/`warn`. `download`/`ignore` short-circuit, and projects with no runtime pin pay nothing. Memoized per runtime. - `pnpm --version`, `pnpm --help`, and `pnpm <cmd> --global` are exempt from the check. - Rename `@pnpm/engine.runtime.system-node-version` → `@pnpm/engine.runtime.system-version` to match its broader scope; hoist `RuntimeName` / `RUNTIME_NAMES` / `isRuntimeAlias` to `@pnpm/types` so callers don't need to depend on `pkg-manifest.utils` just for the alias check. ## Tests - `pnpm --filter pnpm run compile` - `pnpm --filter pnpm exec jest packageManagerCheck.test` — 42 passing. New coverage: node/deno/bun version mismatch, invalid range, missing range, multi-entry runtime arrays, `engines.runtime` path (not just `devEngines.runtime`), and the `pnpm --version` exemption. - `pnpm --filter @pnpm/engine.runtime.system-version test` — 10 passing, 100% statement coverage; unit tests for each helper and the dispatcher. - Manual end-to-end smoke tests against the rebuilt bundle for deno and bun version mismatch. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit ## Release Notes * **New Features** * Added runtime version validation for Node.js, Deno, and Bun. The system now enforces `devEngines.runtime` and `engines.runtime` declarations with configurable failure behavior (`error`, `warn`, or `ignore`). * Enhanced error messages for runtime version mismatches with helpful suggestions for overrides. * **Improvements** * Improved system runtime detection and version checking across multiple runtime environments. --------- Co-authored-by: Puneet Dixit <236133619+puneetdixit200@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Zoltan Kochan <z@kochan.io>

Fast, disk space efficient package manager:
- Fast. Up to 2x faster than the alternatives (see benchmark).
- Efficient. Files inside
node_modulesare linked from a single content-addressable storage. - Great for monorepos.
- Strict. A package can access only dependencies that are specified in its
package.json. - Deterministic. Has a lockfile called
pnpm-lock.yaml. - Works as a Node.js version manager. See pnpm runtime.
- Works everywhere. Supports Windows, Linux, and macOS.
- Battle-tested. Used in production by teams of all sizes since 2016.
- See the full feature comparison with npm and Yarn.
To quote the Rush team:
Microsoft uses pnpm in Rush repos with hundreds of projects and hundreds of PRs per day, and we’ve found it to be very fast and reliable.

Background
pnpm uses a content-addressable filesystem to store all files from all module directories on a disk. When using npm, if you have 100 projects using lodash, you will have 100 copies of lodash on disk. With pnpm, lodash will be stored in a content-addressable storage, so:
- If you depend on different versions of lodash, only the files that differ are added to the store.
If lodash has 100 files, and a new version has a change only in one of those files,
pnpm updatewill only add 1 new file to the storage. - All the files are saved in a single place on the disk. When packages are installed, their files are linked from that single place consuming no additional disk space. Linking is performed using either hard-links or reflinks (copy-on-write).
As a result, you save gigabytes of space on your disk and you have a lot faster installations!
