963 markdown files reformatted with the repository's pinned prettier so pnpm format:check covers the folded tree like every other repo file. The formatter's embedded-language pass also normalized code fences (TS semicolons, closed HTML tags in examples, lowercased CSS hex colors, one renumbered list that skipped an index). Alphanumeric token deltas vs the fold commit were audited file-by-file; all are formatter-equivalent markup normalizations plus the four sanitized skills.

pnpm is a fast, disk space efficient package manager. It uses a content-addressable store to deduplicate packages across all projects on a machine, saving significant disk space. pnpm enforces strict dependency resolution by default, preventing phantom dependencies. Configuration should preferably be placed in `pnpm-workspace.yaml` for pnpm-specific settings.
|
|
|
|
**Important:** When working with pnpm projects, agents should check for `pnpm-workspace.yaml` and `.npmrc` files to understand workspace structure and configuration. Always use `--frozen-lockfile` in CI environments.
