Summary
Fix CI publish of
@RaspberryPiFoundation/scratch-guito GitHub Packages by skipping npm lifecycle scripts duringnpm publish. The existingprepublishOnlyhook blocks all publishes (including CI).Problem
CI on
code-classroomrunsnpm publishfor@RaspberryPiFoundation/scratch-guiafter a successful build. Publish fails becausepackages/scratch-guidefines aprepublishOnlyscript that always exits with code 1 to discourage manual publishes. npm runs that hook on every publish, including CI, so the job never uploads to GitHub Packages.npm versionin the same step succeeds; the failure happens whennpm publishtriggersprepublishOnly.CI error

Solution
Add
--ignore-scriptsto the publish step in.github/workflows/ci.yml:Why this should work
npm run build, sodist/is present before publish. Skipping lifecycle scripts at publish time does not skip the build.prepublishOnlyis intended to block localnpm publish; npm does not distinguish CI from a developer machine.--ignore-scriptsskips that hook so GPR publish can complete.prepublishOnlyinpackage.jsonstill discourages manual publishes from a laptop.Test plan
