Happy is a pnpm monorepo. Everything uses pnpm workspaces — do not use npm or yarn directly.

First-time setup

pnpm install                       # installs deps for every package
pnpm --filter happy cli:install    # builds happy-cli + links it as the global `happy` binary

cli:install replaces whatever happy is on your PATH (npm-installed or not) with a symlink to packages/happy-cli/. Daemon is restarted as part of the script. Uses ~/.happy/ — same as production.

To undo: npm unlink -g happy && npm i -g happy@latest.
