SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams manage dependencies across a pnpm-based monorepo, ensuring consistent versions, centralized overrides, and predictable installs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Workspace-aware installs: Install and resolve dependencies across all packages in the repository with a single command.
  • Targeted package updates: Add or update dependencies within a specific package using filters, avoiding unintended changes in other packages.
  • Version alignment: Enforce consistent dependency versions across all workspace packages.

Quick Start

Use the monorepo-deps skill to install and align dependencies across the workspace by running the appropriate pnpm commands in the repo root.

Frequently Asked Questions about monorepo-deps

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I align dependencies across all packages in a pnpm monorepo?▼

To align dependencies in a pnpm monorepo, use recursive commands like pnpm update --recursive and centralized package.json overrides to enforce consistent versions across all workspace packages, ensuring predictable installs.

How do I add a dependency to a specific package in a pnpm workspace?▼

To add a dependency to a specific package in a pnpm workspace, use the pnpm add --filter command. This targets only the selected package, avoiding unintended version changes or updates in other packages within the monorepo.

What is the best way to check outdated dependencies in a pnpm monorepo?▼

The best way to check outdated dependencies in a pnpm monorepo is running pnpm outdated --recursive. This workspace-scoped command reports version status across all packages to help you synchronize and align dependencies centrally.

Can I use root package.json overrides to manage monorepo dependency versions?▼

Yes, you can use root package.json overrides to manage monorepo dependency versions. This centralizes version control, forcing all workspace packages to resolve to a single specified version and keeping installs predictable.

Why do I need version alignment for dependencies in a pnpm workspace?▼

You need version alignment for dependencies in a pnpm workspace to prevent runtime conflicts and bundle duplication. Synchronizing versions across the monorepo ensures all packages interact with the same API and maintain predictable install behavior.
