Blocks dependency lifecycle scripts (preinstall/install/postinstall) from auto-executing on npm install — the Miasma / Shai-Hulud install-hook vector. Blunt fleet-wide mitigation; does not stop runtime import/require malware. PLA-1595 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

.npmrcwithignore-scripts=trueso dependency lifecycle scripts (preinstall/install/postinstall) do not auto-execute onnpm install— the execution vector the Miasma / Shai-Hulud worm relies on.This is the blunt, immediate mitigation applied across the repo fleet. It does not stop malware that runs at runtime via normal
import/require. If this repo has a dependency that needs a real build step (native/node-gyp), install/CI may go red — that is expected; triage per repo (allow-list the build, or move to pnpm's default-deny + allow-list model).PLA-1595
