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
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:
  1. files
    field in 
    package.json
     - explicit allowlist of files/directories
  2. .npmignore
     - files to exclude (if present)
  3. .gitignore
     - used if no 
    .npmignore
    exists
  4. Always included: 
    package.json
    , 
    README
    , 
    LICENSE
    , 
    CHANGELOG
  5. Always excluded: 
    .git
    , 
    node_modules
    , 
    .npmrc
    , etc.
