Publish the 0 Finance CLI to npm with the correct 2FA requirements.
Prerequisites
npm account with publish rights to publish agent-bank
A granular token that bypasses 2FA, stored in .env.skill
Built CLI artifacts in packages/cli/dist
Credentials
This skill reads credentials from .env.skill in the same directory.
Expected keys:
NPM_TOKEN — npm granular token with publish access and 2FA bypass enabled
NPM_SCOPE — optional npm scope (leave empty for unscoped)
Workflow
Load .env.skill and export NPM_TOKEN
Run npm config set //registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken=$NPM_TOKEN
Run npm whoami to confirm auth
Build the CLI: pnpm --filter agent-bank build
Publish from packages/cli: npm publish --access public --workspaces=false
Verify publish: npm view agent-bank version
Common Issues
403 with 2FA: token lacks 2FA bypass — regenerate a granular token with bypass enabled
404 scope not found: scope permissions missing — ensure the token has publish access
Interactive login: avoid npm login in automation, use token instead
Completion Criteria
npm view agent-bank version returns the new version
CLI install works with bun add -g agent-bank
