Problem

When I try to publish my packages using pnpx changesets publish I get this error:

➜ pnpx changeset publish

🦋  info npm info @tinyhttp/cors
🦋  info npm info @tinyhttp/etag

🦋  error     at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:97:5)

Same happens with ./node_modules/.bin/changeset publish

I don’t know what causes it because there’s no clear error message.

Yep, already pushed out a change like this a couple of hours ago 😉 :

https://github.com/atlassian/changesets/commit/89a70f9d6702740c8b4c7903faefb8c7286bff20

Need to self-review and retest this before publishing a PR.

Thank you also for other comments - i will take a deeper look into everything you have mentioned

For me, I had to add the following to my package.json’s:

  "publishConfig": {
    "access": "public"
  }
