`get_version_info`

Pack: npm · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/npm/mcp

Get metadata for a SPECIFIC version (or dist-tag) of an npm package: dependencies, dev/peer dependencies, engines, license, tarball + integrity hash + unpacked size, and any deprecation notice. Use for “dependencies of @”, pinned-version audits, or inspecting a particular release. Version accepts an exact version (e.g. “4.18.2”), a dist-tag (e.g. “latest”, “next”), or omit for the latest.
