npm has rolled out staged publishing and new install-time controls in its latest update to enhance supply-chain security. Staged publishing requires maintainers to approve packages before they are publicly available, adding a layer of human verification. This feature is especially useful for CI/CD workflows, ensuring only trusted packages are released. Additionally, new install source flags allow developers to control dependency sources, enhancing security by setting explicit permissions for file, remote, and directory installs. These updates represent a significant advancement in npm's package management security.
