Publishing to npm

Publish the SDK and its sub-packages from the pnpm workspace

The Yanga Wallet monorepo publishes three packages to npm using pnpm publish. Publishing is always done from the monorepo root — never from inside an individual package directory.

Published Packages

Package	Registry name	Visibility
packages/sdk	agent-economy-wallet	Public
packages/wallet-core	@agent-economy-wallet/core	Public
packages/mcp-server	@agent-economy-wallet/mcp-server	Public

The root monorepo and @agent-economy-wallet/cli are marked "private": true and are never published.

Prerequisites

• A free npmjs.com account
• An npm organisation named agent-economy-wallet (required for scoped packages like @agent-economy-wallet/core)
• Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) enabled on your npm account

Publishing Steps

1. Authenticate with npm

   pnpm login
   

   Follow the browser prompt. You only need to do this once per machine.

2. Build the entire workspace

   From the monorepo root, compile all packages in dependency order:

   pnpm build
   
3. Run tests

   pnpm test
   
4. Bump versions

   Edit the "version" field inside the package.json of each package you changed. All three published packages should stay in sync:

   • packages/sdk/package.json
   • packages/wallet-core/package.json
   • packages/mcp-server/package.json

   Follow Semantic Versioning: patch for fixes, minor for new features, major for breaking changes.

5. Publish the workspace

   pnpm publish -r --access public --no-git-checks --otp YOUR_2FA_CODE
   

   pnpm publish -r recursively publishes every non-private package in the workspace. It automatically replaces internal workspace:* references with real version numbers in the published bundle — so consumers never see them.

   Get your --otp code from your authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, etc.) immediately before running this command — OTP codes expire in 30 seconds.

What Gets Published

The SDK (agent-economy-wallet) is a thin re-export layer over @agent-economy-wallet/core and @agent-economy-wallet/mcp-server. Consumers can use a single import:

import {
  AgentWallet,
  createCoreServices,
  createX402Paywall,
  discoverRegistry,
  buildRegistrationTx,
  X402Client,
  WELL_KNOWN_TOKENS,
} from "agent-economy-wallet";

The full export list is documented in the SDK Overview.

Checking Published Packages

After publishing, verify the packages appear correctly:

# Check the latest version on the registry
pnpm view agent-economy-wallet version
pnpm view @agent-economy-wallet/core version
pnpm view @agent-economy-wallet/mcp-server version
