Versions:
javascript-package-delegator 3.0.0, released by the-code-fixer-23 as the ninth iteration of the utility, is a cross-platform command-line interface whose single purpose is to detect the lock file present in any JavaScript project and automatically invoke the corresponding package manager. By reading package-lock.json, yarn.lock, pnpm-lock.yaml, bun.lockb, or deno.lock, the tool transparently routes install, update, audit, outdated, and run scripts to npm, Yarn, pnpm, Bun, or Deno without requiring the developer to remember which manager was chosen for the repository. This eliminates the common friction in polyglot codebases, CI pipelines, and team environments where multiple package managers coexist, ensuring that the exact dependency tree recorded in the lock file is respected every time. Typical use cases include repository onboarding, where engineers clone an unfamiliar project and simply call the delegator instead of inspecting lock files; continuous-integration scripts that need a single, manager-agnostic command; and monorepo setups that mix legacy npm sub-projects with modern pnpm or Bun workspaces. Because the CLI is distributed as a lightweight native executable with no external runtime, it can be dropped into Alpine Linux containers, GitHub Actions, or Windows build agents alike, adding zero configuration overhead. The delegator also exposes a --dry-run flag for auditing the command that would be executed and a --verbose flag for troubleshooting detection logic, making it equally suitable for interactive development and headless automation. javascript-package-delegator is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
