Unable to use socket cli with current setups

[richtera]

Hi
I am using mise and for some reason socket doesn't find the npm cli. I didn't debug the code, but all I see it

❯ npx socket
Need to install the following packages:
socket@0.14.57
Ok to proceed? (y) 

✖️ Unable to find npm CLI install directory.
Searched parent directories of /Users/andy/.local/share/mise/installs/node/22.13.1/bin.

This is may be a bug with socket-npm related to changes to the npm CLI.
Please report to https://github.com/SocketDev/socket-cli/issues.

I tried npm install -g socket, pnpm add -g socket and a few other related commands and all eend up with this error.

Here is the parent directory with npm cli highlighted:

I can make v0.14.39 work

❯ npx socket@0.14.39
Need to install the following packages:
socket@0.14.39
Ok to proceed? (y)

@richtera Ah thank you for sharing the directory structure. Yes our search looks for the node_modules in a parent folder... in your case it's in a sibling folder called lib/node_modules. Looks like something mise does.

[richtera]

It's a normal node install though mise just uses node build and the older version of socket.dev works fine

[richtera]

Awesome, thanks!

@richtera Released v0.14.65
