Root causes found:
1. publishConfig.registry in each package.json overrides --registry CLI
flag, causing npm to hit gitea.bytelyst.com through corp proxy.
2. Global ~/.npmrc proxy settings (NPM_CONFIG_PROXY env vars) route
localhost:3300 through the corporate proxy.
3. No .npmrc with auth token was created for npm publish to use.
Fix: generate a proper .npmrc in WORK_DIR with:
- _authToken for registry auth
- @bytelyst:registry scoped override (bypasses publishConfig)
- proxy=false + https-proxy=false on corp network
- Unified corp/home publish path (both use same .npmrc)
Token scope issue still open: current GITEA_NPM_TOKEN has read:package
but not write:package — needs regeneration in Gitea UI.
