Starting with pnpm 11.19 in our build, `pnpm deploy --legacy` left workspace dependencies linked to source directories that the runtime image did not contain.
I evaluated Dagger against a monorepo running 2,000 CI jobs a month, separating pipeline changes from the runner, cache, and hardware constraints that remain.
Five cache mechanisms layered on a single self-hosted GitLab runner to keep a Java + Node + Python + React Native monorepo fast without standing up an external cache service.
A systematic approach to eliminate every known vulnerability and replace pnpm monkey-patches with proper supply-chain configuration.
