Small public npm package used to exercise Staged Publish Review with real published and staged artifacts.

It intentionally has:

• no runtime dependencies;
• no install lifecycle scripts;
• a tiny ESM entrypoint;
• a tiny CLI binary;
• a narrow files allowlist so package contents are predictable.

Publish the baseline package

From this directory:

npm login
npm run pack:dry-run
npm run publish:public

The first publish creates the previous-version artifact that the review app can diff future staged publishes against.

Create a staged publish for review

This requires an npm CLI version that supports npm stage commands.

Make a small change, bump the version, then stage the package:

npm version patch --no-git-tag-version
npm run pack:dry-run
npm run stage:publish

Copy the stage ID printed by npm into Staged Publish Review. Approval remains manual and outside the app:

npm stage approve <stage-id>

If the staged artifact was only for testing, discard it instead of approving it.
