- Security fixes prevent executable shims from hijacking other packages and stop GitHub Actions links from leaking credentials.
- Install and workspace reliability improved: prod/dev flags accepted, ignore‑workspace honored, faster peer‑dependency checks, Python lockfile reuse, and better handling of stale files and frozen lockfiles.
- CLI and output enhancements include pn/pnpx/pnx using the bundled pnpm, expanded shell variable syntax, improved sbom URLs, and new brace‑alternative filtering.
