Does it modify my GitHub Actions workflows?

Yes, it specifically scans .github/workflows/ for pnpm/action-setup usage and updates the tags and pinned versions to match the new release.

Will it mess up my package.json formatting?

No, the skill is designed to preserve trailing newlines and existing formatting while precisely updating the packageManager field.

How does this skill update pnpm locally?

It first attempts to run pnpm self-update; if that fails or pnpm is missing, it uses corepack prepare to activate the latest version.

What happens if the GitHub API is rate-limited?

The skill can utilize GITHUB_TOKEN or GH_TOKEN for higher limits. If the API is still unreachable, it will abort the process rather than guessing a version tag.

Why is this better than search and replace?

Search and replace can cause unintended changes in unrelated files. This skill uses targeted logic to only edit relevant configuration blocks and verified files.

Deployment & DevOps

Automates the synchronization of pnpm versions across local environments, package configurations, and GitHub Action workflows.

About

The pnpm-upgrade skill provides a standardized workflow for maintaining the pnpm toolchain within a repository. It automates the local update process using corepack, ensures the package.json packageManager field is correctly aligned, and fetches the latest GitHub Action tags to update CI pipelines. By using precise file edits instead of broad regex replacements, it reduces the risk of configuration drift and ensures that development and continuous integration environments remain perfectly in sync with the latest pnpm releases.
