With an npm release-age policy (min-release-age=3 in ~/.npmrc), T3 Code offered a Vite+-installed provider an update to a release younger than the window. vp i -g <pkg> installs through npm, which resolves @latest to the newest eligible release, so the update reinstalled the old version, exited 0, and T3 reported that the provider still needed an update. The offer stayed until the release aged past the window.
Reproduced on main 4cb6945dc6: fresh dev server, scratch npmrc with min-release-age=3, @opencode/cli installed with vp i -g (2.2.6 had been published a few hours earlier, so npm installed 2.2.5). Settings → Providers offered OpenCode 2.2.5 → "Update available" with vp i -g @opencode/cli. "Update now" left 2.2.5 installed and the sidebar showed "OpenCode still needs an update".
Change
Vite+ installs now get their own latest-version lookup, the same way pnpm-global installs already do. The generic lookup asks npm view <pkg>@latest version, which ignores min-release-age and before. The new lookup asks npm pack --dry-run --json=false --global <pkg>@latest, which resolves @latest through npm's install-time resolver. That resolver applies the policy and its excludes. With no policy, it resolves to the same release as before. The version is read from the tarball name pack prints. --json=false keeps that output to one line even when a user's npmrc sets json=true. If the probe fails, the lookup falls back to the existing generic lookup, as pnpm's does.
Other installers keep npm view. The update runner checks compatibility against "what an unpinned command would install now", and native updaters such as opencode upgrade choose their own release regardless of npm's policy.
Triaged via the automated issue flow; the bug was reproduced on main (above).
Verification
New test does not offer a Vite+ update npm's release-age policy will not install in packages/provider-core/src/server/maintenanceResolver.test.ts. Its stub npm answers view with the newest release and pack with the eligible one, as real npm does under the policy. On main it fails with expected { status: 'behind_latest', latestVersion: '1.2.0' } to match { status: 'current', latestVersion: '1.1.0' }; on this branch it passes.
vp test run packages/provider-core/src/server/maintenanceResolver.test.ts: 78/78. vp run check:changed: format, lint, knip, typecheck (26 packages), tests 80/80 pass.
Real app on the fix branch, with the same scratch policy and Vite+ install on a fresh database: OpenCode 2.2.5 is no longer offered an update. Codex and Claude still show theirs, and the server log has no lookup or probe failures.
npm behaviour this relies on, checked against the live registry (npm 11.19.0, Vite+ 1.4.0, @opencode/cli 2.2.6 published 2026-11-06T23:33Z):
min-release-age=3 in a scratch npmrc
$ npm view @opencode/cli version -> 2.2.6 (ignores the policy, even with --before)
$ npm install -g --prefix <p> @opencode/[email protected] -> npm error code ETARGET
$ vp i -g @opencode/cli -> + Installed @opencode/cli 2.2.5 (exit 0)
$ vp outdated -g --format json @opencode/cli -> wanted 2.2.6 (ignores the policy)
$ npm pack --dry-run --json=false --global @opencode/cli@latest -> opencode-cli-2.2.5.tgz
without the policy -> opencode-cli-2.2.6.tgz
with npm_config_json=true -> opencode-cli-2.2.5.tgz
no policy
$ vp i -g @opencode/cli -> + Installed @opencode/cli 2.2.6
Before/after screenshots of the provider row were taken but are not attached: the upload tool was unavailable in this environment. The server-side change has no render path of its own, so the test and the transcript above are the proof.
Not checked: Windows (npm.cmd) and macOS execution. The probe uses the same spawn path as the existing pnpm and npm probes.
AI-assisted; verified with the tests and tools listed above.
Native and Vite+ installs read the latest version from `npm view`, which
ignores npm's min-release-age policy, so T3 offers a release npm will not
install. These tests reproduce #32326 and fail until the lookup honours it.

… policy installs
Installs without their own version source (Vite+, native updaters, yarn,
volta, bun, npm-global) read the latest version from `npm view`, which
ignores `min-release-age`, `before` and `min-release-age-exclude`. T3 Code
then offered a release that `vp i -g` silently skipped and that native
updaters pinned and failed on with ETARGET.
The lookup now asks `npm pack --dry-run`, which resolves the version through
npm's install-time picker, and reads the version from the tarball name it
prints. Without `--json` the output stays one line however many files the
package ships, so a large package cannot overflow the probe's output cap.
Env, `--global`/`--prefix`, caching and the no-public-fallback failure path
are unchanged; with no policy configured the newest `latest` is offered.

The generic lookup feeds the runner's compatibility check for unpinned
native updaters, which install their own latest, so it stays on npm view.
Vite+ installs through npm, so only it asks npm's install-time resolver.

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Vite+-managed provider update checks now use npm’s install-time release policy instead of advertising releases that cannot yet be installed. Installation commands and product defaults remain unchanged, keeping the change limited to update discovery.

Vite+ maintenance now probes its managed Node installation’s npm for the latest installable package version and uses that version in advisories. Vite+ cache keys include the environment, and Mise reuses the shared environment-hashing helper. Tests cover release-age filtering and fallback to npm view.
Changes: Vite+ installable version lookup
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Probe npm for the installable version packages/provider-core/src/server/maintenanceResolver.ts
The resolver checks Vite+’s current Node installation and runs its adjacent npm executable to pack the latest package. It parses a matching tarball name to get the version. Invalid paths, failed probes, and invalid output return null. Mise now uses the shared environment-hashing helper for its latest-version cache key.
Use the lookup in Vite+ capabilities packages/provider-core/src/server/maintenanceResolver.ts, packages/provider-core/src/server/maintenanceResolver.test.ts
Vite+ capabilities use the lookup and a cache key containing the installer, package, and environment hash. Tests cover release-age filtering, no filtering, and fallback to npm view when Vite+ reports system PATH.
Vite+ update advisories now respect npm's release-age policy in the common case. In some environments, such as an incompatible system Node first on PATH or a global npmrc that sets a policy, the advisory may still be wrong. These are small follow-ups and do not block merging.

Explanation
The title names the Vite+ provider and the npm release-age policy, which match the changeset: a Vite+-specific latest-version lookup via npm pack that respects min-release-age. It uses a conventional commit format and is one short sentence. It does not cover the fallback or the cache key change, which is acceptable.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template. It has Problem, Change, Scope, and Verification sections with substantive content. Scope links issue #32326 and explains why no separate issue is needed for the bug. Verification lists focused tests, the check command results, a real-app check, and the npm behaviour transcript. It also states what was not checked (Windows and macOS execution, screenshots). The template's trailing agent-model line is missing, and the author says the description was AI-assisted but does not name the model and harness. These gaps are minor.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The whole-PR diff (merge base fb2e5a0 to head 3663ade) contains the Vite+ latest-version probe in maintenanceResolver.ts, its environment-sensitive cache key, and the policy-aware test in maintenanceResolver.test.ts. These implement #32326. The Mise cache key change now uses the shared environment hashing helper. This is a refactor that supports the shared cache-key path used by the new lookup. It keeps existing Mise cache behavior, as the earlier review also found. No unrelated functional change was identified in the summary.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Issue #32326 has two coding requirements. (1) Vite+ installs: the offer must not appear for a version that npm does not install under min-release-age. Addressed. The new Vite+ lookup runs npm pack --dry-run --json=false --global <pkg>@latest through the Vite+ bundled npm and reads the tarball name. The test does not offer a Vite+ update npm's release-age policy will not install covers this behavior. (2) Native-command installs (opencode upgrade): the issue states that this path also offers an update that npm cannot install (ETARGET, exit 1). Not addressed. The PR states that native updaters keep npm view, and the whole-PR summary shows no change to the native opencode upgrade lookup or to any native-command test. The PR objectives and author comments call the native path a separate change. That scope statement does not remove the requirement from the current issue text, so the native-command requirement stays unmet.
Resolution
Address the native-command case described in #32326. Ensure T3 Code does not offer an OpenCode update that opencode upgrade cannot install under the npm release-age policy, or clearly report that the release is waiting on the policy. Add an automated test for this native-command behavior. If the native path is moved to a separate issue or PR, update the linked issue relationship or the PR scope so the requirement is tracked explicitly.

On the linked-issue warning (native opencode upgrade installs): this PR deliberately leaves that path on the existing lookup. opencode upgrade picks and pins its own newest release whatever T3 advertises. The update runner checks compatibility against "what an unpinned command would install now" (providerMaintenanceRunner.ts). A policy-aware lookup on that path would approve one version while the updater installs another. Making native installs policy-aware needs T3 to pin the native updater's target, which is a separate change.

`vp i -g` installs through the npm beside the Node that Vite+ resolves, not
whichever npm comes first on PATH, and the two can disagree on
min-release-age. The probe now asks `vp env exec node -p process.execPath`
and runs the npm next to it. Its answer is cached per provider environment,
using the env hash the mise lookup already used.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
Keep the environment hash as a deliberate decision.
environmentCacheKey hashes every env entry, including secrets such as tokens. The hash is SHA-256 and only used in an in-memory cache key, so the exposure is low. The key changes on any env change, such as a rotating variable. A changed key causes a new npm probe each time. This is acceptable at the 1-hour found TTL, but it can cause repeated probes if the env contains volatile values.

Match the installer's npm configuration prefix.
If the normal global npmrc sets before, this probe can resolve an older version and suppress an available update. npm derives its default globalconfig location from prefix, but Vite+ 1.4.0 overrides npm_config_prefix with a fresh installation directory. The updater therefore does not read the same default global npmrc. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
Match the updater's prefix-dependent configuration when probing. Preserve an explicitly configured globalconfig.

Run the probe with the managed Node on PATH.
On POSIX, npm's entrypoint uses #!/usr/bin/env node. Selecting the adjacent npm does not select its Node interpreter. If an incompatible system Node precedes Vite+ shims on PATH, this probe fails. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
runProbe then returns null, and the configured lookup can advertise the policy-blocked release again. Prepend path.dirname(node.bin_path) to the probe's PATH. Vite+ 1.4.0 explicitly prepends that directory for its installer. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Problem
With an npm release-age policy (
min-release-age=3in~/.npmrc), T3 Code offered a Vite+-installed provider an update to a release younger than the window.vp i -g <pkg>installs through npm, which resolves@latestto the newest eligible release, so the update reinstalled the old version, exited 0, and T3 reported that the provider still needed an update. The offer stayed until the release aged past the window.Reproduced on main
4cb6945dc6: fresh dev server, scratch npmrc withmin-release-age=3,@opencode/cliinstalled withvp i -g(2.2.6 had been published a few hours earlier, so npm installed 2.2.5). Settings → Providers offered OpenCode 2.2.5 → "Update available" withvp i -g @opencode/cli. "Update now" left 2.2.5 installed and the sidebar showed "OpenCode still needs an update".Change
Vite+ installs now get their own latest-version lookup, the same way pnpm-global installs already do. The generic lookup asks
npm view <pkg>@latest version, which ignoresmin-release-ageandbefore. The new lookup asksnpm pack --dry-run --json=false --global <pkg>@latest, which resolves@latestthrough npm's install-time resolver. That resolver applies the policy and its excludes. With no policy, it resolves to the same release as before. The version is read from the tarball name pack prints.--json=falsekeeps that output to one line even when a user's npmrc setsjson=true. If the probe fails, the lookup falls back to the existing generic lookup, as pnpm's does.Other installers keep
npm view. The update runner checks compatibility against "what an unpinned command would install now", and native updaters such asopencode upgradechoose their own release regardless of npm's policy.Scope and approval
