List npm Package Content
This skill lists the exact contents of an npm package tarball - the same files that would be uploaded to npm and downloaded by users.
Usage
Run the script from the package directory (e.g., packages/ai):
bash scripts/list-package-files.sh
The script will build the package, create a tarball, list its contents, and clean up automatically.
Understanding Package Contents
The files included are determined by:
filesfield inpackage.json- explicit allowlist of files/directories.npmignore- files to exclude (if present).gitignore- used if no.npmignoreexists- Always included:
package.json,README,LICENSE,CHANGELOG - Always excluded:
.git,node_modules,.npmrc, etc.
