Installation
This project uses pnpm for package management with built-in supply chain attack protection.
pnpm install # install all packages
pnpm run add <package> # add a new package (with security check)
Supply Chain Security
Layer 1: pnpm script blocking
- All lifecycle scripts (postinstall, etc.) are blocked by default
- Only trusted packages in
pnpm-workspace.yamlcan run scripts - Protects during
pnpm installandpnpm add
Layer 2: Security database check
pnpm run addchecks packages against OSV and GitHub Advisory databases BEFORE installing- Pre-commit hook blocks commits containing known malicious packages
Layer 3: npm blocked
- Running
npm installwill fail - enforces pnpm usage
