## Requirements & limits

- The npm CLI declares Node.js >=16; standalone v1.14.0 binaries are published for macOS arm64, Linux arm64/x64, and Windows arm64/x64.
- Provide supported JavaScript bundles or source maps. Original identifiers may be unrecoverable without maps; heavy control-flow or VM obfuscation requires other tooling. Package/version inventory is explicitly still in development.
