What is an npm Trusted Publisher?

A Trusted Publisher allows you to authenticate your npm releases from GitHub Actions using OIDC, which is more secure than using static, long-lived authentication tokens.

How does npm-trustme handle authentication?

It uses Playwright to open a real browser session, allowing you to perform the required one-time WebAuthn or security key approval needed by the npm registry.

What are the system requirements for this skill?

This skill requires Node.js version 22 or higher and the installation of Playwright browsers via 'npx playwright install'.

Can I use npm-trustme in automated CI environments?

While the initial setup requires a browser for WebAuthn, once configured, the Trusted Publisher allows your CI/CD environment to publish without manual intervention.
