[rozenmd]

What operating system are you using?

Mac

Describe the Bug

When you create a PR, and the bot drops a comment with links to your preview artifacts, npx doesn't seem to be able to pick them up:

% npx https://prerelease-registry.developers.workers.dev/runs/3054372461/npm-package-wrangler-1856 whoami
Need to install the following packages:

Ok to proceed? (y) y

Which is weird, since that URL resolves with a file...

Yeah I think I have seen this. You have to install it locally first, I think. Then it will work. I.e.

npm i -D https://prerelease-registry.developers.workers.dev/runs/3054372461/npm-package-wrangler-1856
npx wrangler whoami

Thing is, it used to work without needing an install (I have a screencap of it working back in early June) 😬

Different version of npm?

[rozenmd]

I installed nvm over the top of volta and now npx works again. Weird.
