description: The pnpm command-line interface for managing JavaScript/Node.js packages. Provides commands
  for installing, updating, and removing dependencies; running package scripts; executing one-off packages
  via pnx (formerly dlx); publishing to registries; auditing for vulnerabilities; managing the content-addressable
  store; inspecting the dependency graph; and patching installed packages. As of pnpm 11, `pn` is a shorthand
  for `pnpm` and `pnx` replaces `pnpm dlx`.
