sandbox-npm-install

Solid

Install npm packages in a Docker sandbox environment. Use this skill whenever you need to install, reinstall, or update node_modules inside a container where the workspace is mounted via virtiofs. Native binaries (esbuild, lightningcss, rollup) crash on virtiofs, so packages must be installed on the local ext4 filesystem and symlinked back.

# Sandbox npm Install ## When to Use This Skill Use this skill whenever: - You need to install npm packages for the first time in a new sandbox session - `package.json` or `package-lock.json` has changed and you need to reinstall - You encounter native binary crashes with errors like `SIGILL`, `SIGSEGV`, `mmap`, or `unaligned sysNoHugePageOS` - The `node_modules` directory is missing or corrupted ## Prerequisites - A Docker sandbox environment with a virtiofs-mounted workspace - Node.js and npm available in the container - A `package.json` file in the target workspace ## Background Docker sandbox workspaces are typically mounted via **virtiofs** (file sync between the host and Linux VM). Native Go and Rust binaries (esbuild, lightningcss, rollup, etc.) crash with mmap alignment failures when executed from virtiofs on aarch64. The fix is to install on the container's local ext4 filesystem and symlink back into the workspace. ## Step-by-Step Installation Run the bundled install script from the workspace root: ```bash bash scripts/install.sh ``` ### Common Options | Option | Description | |---|---| | `--workspace <path>` | Path to directory containing `package.json` (auto-detected if omitted) | | `--playwright` | Also install Playwright Chromium browser for E2E testing | ### What the Script Does 1. Copies `package.json`, `package-lock.json`, and `.npmrc` (if present) to a local ext4 directory 2. Runs `npm ci` (or `npm install` if no lockfile) on the local filesystem...
