The gap
What npm doesn't do
for you.
Every time you release, you're manually handling things npm never promised to handle.
- Find every package in the correct order
- Understand local dependency relationships
- Install, build, and test in the right sequence
- Avoid publishing .env files and secrets
- Bump versions across packages without skipping one
- Push once after all publishes succeed
- Return clear exit codes for CI and agents
- Keep a record of what changed and what shipped
xnpm wraps that whole workflow into safe, repeatable commands. It does not replace npm. It makes npm workflows automation-ready.
