npm Release

Overview

Publish an npm package from this repo with local verification, clean package contents, and npm browser authentication. For Skill Zoo today, the npm package is the CLI package in packages/cli; the workspace root is private and is not the package to publish.

Announce at start: "I'm using the npm-release skill to publish the npm package."

Privacy Guardrails

Do not write private npm account details into repo files, skill files, logs, release notes, or final summaries. This includes npm usernames, email addresses, authentication secrets, browser auth URLs, auth IDs, tokens, local npm debug log paths, and machine-specific temporary directories.

It is fine to state generic facts such as "npm required browser authentication" or "the authenticated owner account was permitted." Do not paste the actual authentication URL into a committed file. If a URL is needed transiently, use it only to complete the live browser flow.
