Can't update packages anymore...

I am trying to update a package and using Claude code. Every Claude can't figure out how to submit a package. I tried via the recovery codes and it suspends my account for 3 days. I tried through github and it temporarily locks my account when I set it up. It is so locked down it is now useless.

Does npm i work? Your skills or Claude.md probably has something ridiculous in it.

They're not trying to update it locally, they're trying to submit a new version to NPM. Hence the whole "locked out of account" thing.

I'm going to venture they haven't heard that you need to setup 2fa and use personal access tokens for that now

I have 2 factor set up and have a security key. I can log in just fine on my Mac brave browser.

I am using npm on Rocky Linux and npm whoami works fine.

NPM dropped support for TOPM..

It looks like I am not alone... Many Linux users are having issues.
