# Trusted publishing requires npm 11.5.1+; the npm bundled with the
# pinned .node-version satisfies this. Do not upgrade to npm@latest:
# npm 12.0.0 self-installs without sigstore and breaks npm publish
# (npm/cli#9722). The dry-run path also uses npm publish so PRs
# exercise the same command shape without publishing.
