Summary & Key Takeaways ​

• Packument responses now include a Last-Modified header for efficient release-age checks.

• serverType declarations are now respected by the server.
• Resolution mode (time-based, lowest-direct) is now passed to the pnpr server.

Our Commentary ​

This pnpr project is still very much in alpha, and these are deep protocol changes. It's interesting to see the evolution of package management infrastructure, but this is definitely for the power users and maintainers. I'm curious to see how this integrates with the broader pnpm ecosystem once it matures. For now, it's a peek behind the curtain.
