January 2025 deliverables for vltpkg/vltpkg focused on security, reliability, and developer usability. Delivered a secure token storage solution via the new @vltpkg/keychain component with XDG compatibility, atomic writes, and automatic persistence on process exit; integrated with registry client authentication for a cohesive login/OTP flow and token lifecycle management, including secure logout and token destruction on both client and server where supported, plus CLI commands for login/logout/whoami and token deletion wired to the keychain. Introduced a cross-platform URL opener module to standardize opening URLs in the system browser and present clickable links in supported terminals. Refined caching behavior to cache only GET and HEAD requests and added tests to ensure PUTs are not cached, improving data freshness and correctness. Enhanced CLI security with a dedicated secure password input utility and improved header management tooling, followed by documentation, typing, and testing improvements to raise maintainability and quality.
