Thanks for flagging the brace-expansion issue. The override here would apply an incompatible version across the dependency chain, and the lockfile isn’t updated. I opened PR #338 with the compatible fix, so I’ll close this one in favor of that.

Thanks for the clarification. I see the issue with the global pnpm.overrides now; forcing brace-expansion@1.1.18 across the dependency tree can cross major-version compatibility boundaries, and I also missed refreshing the lockfile.

The per-major lockfile refresh in #338 is the better approach. Thanks for fixing this and for pointing out the compatibility issue.
