Npm

Wraps npm and pnpm commands into structured JSON so agents can install packages, run audits, check for outdated dependencies, and list installed modules without parsing terminal output. Returns typed objects instead of ANSI codes and progress bars, which cuts token usage by 36% on audit commands and 83% on install operations according to the parent Pare project benchmarks. Useful when you want an AI to manage dependencies, respond to security advisories, or automate package updates without brittle string matching. Supports both npm and pnpm workflows through stdio transport. Part of the larger Pare toolkit that provides schema validated output for 28 developer tools across version control, build systems, and infrastructure.
