fix: use pnpm publish instead of npm to prevent ENEEDAUTH#25
Merged
Conversation
pnpm was already handling all package operations (install, build, test). Switching the publish step from npm to pnpm ensures consistent registry and auth configuration throughout the workflow. npm's OIDC flow can fail when pnpm has written registry config that npm then misinterprets. Using pnpm publish avoids this auth state collision and leverages pnpm's native --provenance and OIDC support. Also add --no-git-checks to allow publishing after version commit.

Summary
The publish step was failing with ENEEDAUTH because npm and pnpm have conflicting auth configurations. pnpm handles all earlier workflow steps (install, build, test), but switching to
npm publishcauses npm to pick up stale or empty auth tokens written by pnpm, preventing OIDC from working.Changes

pnpm's native OIDC support works without interference from npm's auth resolution. By staying in pnpm, we avoid the auth state collision where npm tries to use an empty/stale token instead of falling through to OIDC trusted publishing.
