Trims the published package and removes node-fetch from `src/`. Source maps were 534 of the package's 1128 files, and none of them could ever work: they reference `../src/*.ts`, `src` is not in `files`, and none carry `sourcesContent`, so every map in an installed copy pointed at a file that wasn't there. We keep emitting them for local development and strip them at pack time instead. tarball 480 KB -> 300 KB (-38%) unpacked 2.06 MB -> 1.14 MB (-45%) files 1128 -> 595 `src` no longer imports node-fetch, so it moves to devDependencies (the test suite still uses it). Node's global fetch has been available since well before the `>=22.13.0` engine floor. Note this does not shrink an end user's install yet: @netlify/api still depends on node-fetch, and @mapbox/node-pre-gyp pulls node-fetch@2 via @vercel/nft. Two bugs surfaced while doing this: - functions-create downloaded template files with `res.body?.pipe(dest)`, which was never awaited, so `Promise.all` resolved before the writes finished. Global fetch returns a web ReadableStream with no `.pipe()` at all, so this is now `await pipeline(...)`, which also fixes the race. - `npm run clean` deleted `dist/` but left `tsconfig.build.tsbuildinfo`, so the next build saw an up-to-date cache and emitted nothing at all. Both the clean script and the pack-time strip now clear it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

TypeScript incremental tsbuildinfo missing output files deleted tsc does not recreate dist
💡 Result:
The issue where TypeScript does not recreate output files in your dist folder after they are deleted occurs because the incremental build system relies on the.tsbuildinfo file to determine if a project is up to date [1][2]. When you delete your output files but leave the.tsbuildinfo file intact, TypeScript assumes the previous build is still valid based on the timestamps stored in that file and skips the emission of new files [2][3]. This behavior is "working as designed" by the TypeScript team to avoid the performance cost of checking the existence of every output file on every build [4][2]. To resolve this and ensure your output files are recreated, you can use one of the following methods: 1. Use the force flag: Run your build command with the --force option (e.g., tsc -b --force). This instructs TypeScript to ignore the incremental status and perform a full rebuild of the project [5][6]. 2. Clean the build artifacts: Run the clean command if you are using build mode (tsc -b --clean). This command is specifically designed to safely remove all build outputs, including the.tsbuildinfo file, ensuring a fresh start for the next build [7][2]. 3. Manually delete the.tsbuildinfo file: If you are manually cleaning your dist directory via scripts, ensure your process also deletes the associated.tsbuildinfo file [1][4]. If the.tsbuildinfo file is missing, TypeScript will treat the build as non-incremental and perform a complete compilation [8][3]. 4. Adjust build scripts: If you are using tools like NestJS or custom CLI scripts that automatically clear output directories, consider updating those scripts to also delete the.tsbuildinfo file to prevent this stale state [9][3].

Remove build metadata before returning when dist/ is missing.
This branch returns before rm(BUILD_INFO_FILE, { force: true }) runs. TypeScript incremental builds can reuse the stale .tsbuildinfo file and skip emission while dist/ is absent. Move the cleanup before this return.

First slice of a
node_modulesfootprint reduction effort. Scope here is deliberately the low-risk, measurable end of it.What this does
Stop shipping source maps (the actual win)
We ship 534 map files — 534 of the package's 1128 files — and none of them can work. Every map references
../src/*.ts,srcisn't infiles, and none carrysourcesContent. So in an installed copy, every map points at a path that doesn't exist. Nobody has ever gotten a resolved stack frame out of them.sourceMap/declarationMapstay on for local development; aprepackscript strips maps and their//# sourceMappingURL=annotations fromdist/before the tarball is assembled.Drop the direct
node-fetchdependencysrc/no longer imports it (7 call sites), so it moves todevDependencies— the test suite still uses it in ~25 files, which is left for a follow-up. Globalfetchhas been available since long before our>=22.13.0engine floor.This does not shrink end-user installs yet, and I want to be upfront about that:
@netlify/apistill depends onnode-fetch, and@mapbox/node-pre-gyppullsnode-fetch@2via@vercel/nft. I verified this against a real install of the packed tarball. The ~9 MB (node-fetch+fetch-blob+web-streams-polyfill) only comes back once@netlify/apidrops it. This PR removes our half of that blocker.Two bugs found along the way
functions-createnever awaited its downloads. Template files were written withres.body?.pipe(dest)— not awaited, soPromise.allresolved before any write finished, andnpm iran against a possibly-incomplete directory. Globalfetchreturns a webReadableStreamwith no.pipe()at all, so this had to change regardless;await pipeline(...)fixes both the incompatibility and the pre-existing race. An explicitres.okcheck replaces what was previously a silent write of an error-page body.npm run cleanleft the build broken. It removeddist/but nottsconfig.build.tsbuildinfo, so the nextnpm run buildsaw an up-to-date incremental cache and emitted nothing — nodist/at all. Bothcleanand the pack-time strip now clear it.What I tried and backed out
An
overridesentry pinning@octokit/openapi-typesto one version (3 copies, ~14 MB of pure.d.ts). I dropped it: npmoverridesonly apply to the root project, so it's inert in both dependency and global installs, and our dev tree already resolves to a single copy. It bought nothing and forced an unrelatedNumber(githubRepo.id)cast. Getting that win needs an upstream@octokit/typesbump or bundling.Verification
npm run typecheck,npm run lint,npm run format:check— cleannpm run test:unit— 499/500, matching the baseline onmainexactly. The one failure (generate-autocompletionsnapshot) is pre-existing and unrelated: option ordering only, same content, reproduces on unmodifiedmain.fetchparity by probe against a local server:Bufferbody with manualContent-Lengthbehaves identically to node-fetch (no chunked encoding,statusTextpreserved) — that's theupload-source-zippath.clean→build→pack→buildto confirm maps are stripped from the tarball and restored by a subsequent local build.Follow-ups (not in this PR)
The remaining footprint is ~361 MB installed, ~1040 packages. Biggest items, all needing more than a config change:
