📚 Description

this migrates us to package-manager-detector, which is a tiny library for resolving pms + install commands and isn't dependent on corepack, so it plays nice with node 26+

... and just like nypm, it supports npm, yarn, pnpm, deno, bun, nub, and aube...

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The setup wizard now detects a package manager and installs dependencies through a resolved command. The code handles pnpm workspace arguments, Deno package prefixes, and command failures. The dependency list replaces nypm with package-manager-detector. The pnpm workspace configuration also pins @nuxt/schema for four Nuxt nightly packages.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to da1a0

Setup may fail for pnpm 6 workspace users. The omission is confirmed, but the resulting failure is not; this is a bounded risk to confirm or accept before merging.

Architecture Summary

Architecture risk: 🟡 Medium · up to da1a0

The change affects 3 systems.

Changed systems: src, package.json, pnpm-workspace.yaml

Before / after behavior

observed — Modified behavior in package.json: The dependency on nypm (^0.6.9) was removed and package-manager-detector (^1.8.0) was added; the existing ofetch dependency is unchanged.
observed — Modified behavior in pnpm-workspace.yaml: Added pnpm overrides mapping the four listed Nuxt nightly packages’ @nuxt/schema dependency to npm:@nuxt/schema-nightly@5.0.0-29844650.93f25e79.
observed — Modified behavior in src/module/install-wizard.ts: Replaces the nypm imports with detect and resolveCommand from package-manager-detector and x from tinyexec.
observed — Modified behavior in src/module/install-wizard.ts: Removes package-manager detection from performSetup; it no longer stores a detected manager before installing dependencies.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Include pnpm@6 in the workspace-root check.

If detection returns pnpm@6 at a root with pnpm-workspace.yaml, this condition omits --workspace-root. The detector still resolves the command to pnpm add, which pnpm rejects at a workspace root without that flag. The wizard then stops before it creates the test setup. Accept both pnpm and pnpm@6 in this check. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Proposed change

- ...agent === 'pnpm' && existsSync(join(cwd, 'pnpm-workspace.yaml')) ? ['--workspace-root'] : [], + ...(agent === 'pnpm' || agent === 'pnpm@6') && existsSync(join(cwd, 'pnpm-workspace.yaml')) ? ['--workspace-root'] : [],

📝 Committable suggestion

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.
