From the source SKILL.md

Treat this as a toolchain and supply-chain migration, not a version-string edit. Preserve repository conventions and the user's requested mode: audit-only requests stay read-only; implementation requests include the migration and proportional validation.

What this skill does

When to invoke it: Use when explicitly invoked for an npm 12 upgrade, migration audit, or allowScripts rollout.
