• Package phobia: https://packagephobia.com

🔧 Troubleshooting

"402 Payment Required"

You need to verify your email address with npm.

"403 Forbidden"

1. Check you're logged in: npm whoami
2. Verify scope ownership: npm owner ls @ruvector/package-name
3. Ensure publishConfig.access is set to "public" for scoped packages

"ENEEDAUTH"

Run npm login again.

"Version already published"

You cannot republish the same version. Increment version:

npm version patch
npm publish --access public

Package name conflict

If @ruvector scope is not available, you may need to:

1. Create the scope on npm
2. Use a different scope
3. Publish without scope (not recommended)

📝 Maintenance

Regular Updates

1. Monthly: Check dependencies for updates

   npm outdated
   npm update
   

2. Quarterly: Review and update examples

   • Add new use cases
   • Improve documentation
   • Update dependencies

3. As Needed: Bug fixes and patches

   npm version patch
   npm publish --access public
   

Deprecating Versions

If you need to deprecate a version:

npm deprecate psycho-synth-examples@0.1.0 "Use version 0.2.0 or later"

Unpublishing (Use Sparingly!)

npm allows unpublishing within 72 hours:

# Unpublish specific version
npm unpublish psycho-synth-examples@0.1.0

# Unpublish entire package (dangerous!)
npm unpublish psycho-synth-examples --force

⚠️ Warning: Unpublishing can break dependent projects. Only do this for critical security issues.

✅ Final Pre-Publish Checklist

Before running npm publish, verify:

• Version number is correct
• CHANGELOG.md updated (if you have one)
• All tests pass
• README.md is accurate and comprehensive
• LICENSE file included
• .npmignore excludes unnecessary files
• Dependencies are up to date
• No secrets or credentials in code
• Repository field points to correct URL
• Keywords are relevant and accurate
• Author information is correct
• npm pack --dry-run shows expected files
• You're logged into correct npm account
• Scope (@ruvector) is available or you have access

🎉 Ready to Publish!

# Publish psycho-symbolic-integration
cd packages/psycho-symbolic-integration
npm publish --access public

# Publish psycho-synth-examples
