Code Review

This pull request from Snyk aims to upgrade shelljs to fix a security vulnerability. While updating the dependency in package.json is the correct first step, this PR is critically flawed because it does not include the necessary update to pnpm-lock.yaml. Without the lock file update, the new version of shelljs will not be installed, and the project will remain vulnerable. The lock file must be generated by running pnpm install and committed to this branch.

Additionally, it's important to note that shelljs version 0.9.0 includes a major upgrade of its glob dependency (from v7 to v10), which introduces potential breaking changes. The Snyk metadata for this PR incorrectly states isBreakingChange: false. Although the current usage of shelljs in this repository appears safe from these breaking changes, this is a risk to be aware of for future modifications.

critical

This dependency upgrade is incomplete because the pnpm-lock.yaml file has not been updated. For the security fix to be applied, you must run pnpm install and commit the resulting changes to pnpm-lock.yaml. Without this, the vulnerability will not be resolved.
