This past quarter has been awash with sophisticated npm supply chain attacks like [Shai-Hulud](https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2025/09/23/widesprea...() and the [Chalk/debug Compromise](https://www.wiz.io/blog/widespread-npm-supply-chain-attack-b...). This CLI helps protect users from recently compromised packages by only downloading packages that have been public for a while (default is 90 days or older). Install: npm install -g @dendronhq/safe-npm Usage: safe-npm install react@^18 lodash How it works: - Queries…

I kept seeing every npm/pnpm/yarn/bun/uv supply chain post end with the same advice (set a minimum release age, turn off install scripts), and while I know cooldowns are "controversial", they do work. But even if you convince people that they should set cooldowns, it seems many don't end up following through, not sure why, maybe because it means hand-editing five config files in five formats with five different time units, or perhaps the "it won't happen to me" syndrome (or "I'll do it later, it seems complicated" where it's actually very simple). So I created a tool that…

Hi HN, We are Anil and Yilmaz from the team behind Notifier. Notifier is a macOS menu bar app that keeps track of your favorite packages and notifies you whenever a new version is available. You can currently track packages from npm, pub.dev, packagist, OpenUPM and the Unity asset store. We plan to add more package repositories very soon. Notifier can also watch your dependency manifest files to make it simple to keep track of the packages you use in your projects. We have many new features planned such as tracking software and SDK versions. We want to offer HN an early look at Notifier in…

Our package registry ecosystem has a serious problem... and not just npm. People are aware of this but maybe this will make them a bit more aware

A lot of vendors and open-source projects shared guidance on protecting users from downloading malicious NPM packages after the Shai-Hulud campaign — but almost nothing focused on protecting maintainers from accidentally (or maliciously) publishing them. So we built a small tool that continuously monitors your NPM packages and automatically unpublishes any version not produced by your CI workflow.

Hey HN, sharing an npx package that I’ve been working on to help teams automatically document their analytics setups. It crawls any JS/TS codebase and generates a YAML schema that catalogs all the events, properties, and triggers. Currently supporting GA, Amplitude, Mixpanel, Amplitude, Rudderstack, mParticle, PostHog, Pendo, Heap, Snowplow. Let me know if there’s any more I should add to the list! Came out of a personal pain where I was struggling to keep tabs on all the analytics events we had implemented. The “tracking plan” spreadsheets just weren’t cutting it, and I wanted…
