ci(publish): pin npm to 11.18.0 for provenance publish (sigstore fix)#497
Merged
Conversation
npm 12.0.0 (2026-07-08) ships without a resolvable sigstore module, so publish --provenance dies with MODULE_NOT_FOUND under both npx and a global install. Pin to 11.18.0 — the last release that published cleanly (2026-07-02) and is OIDC-capable (>= 11.5.1) — on both the canary and release jobs. Reverts the inert global-install change from #495. Closes #494

What
Pin npm to
11.18.0for the--provenancepublish step, on both the canary and release jobs.Why
PR #495 (global
npm install -g) was inert — canary still failed identically (run 29103166676):The require stack points at the globally-installed npm, proving the install method was never the problem.
Real root cause — verified against the npm registry:
npm 12.0.0 (published 2026-07-08) ships broken:
libnpmpublishrequiressigstorebut it is absent from npm's bundled deps, so--provenancedies regardless of npx vs global install. Nothing in the repo changed.Fix
Pin to
npm@11.18.0— the last release that published cleanly and is OIDC-capable (≥ 11.5.1, required by the tokenless trusted-publishing step). Revert to the simplenpx --yes npm@<pinned>form.Bump the pin once npm 12.x fixes the bundled
sigstore.Verification
Closes #494
