// - Can you convert this yarn plugin into a pnpm plugin.
// - The goal is to not have modifications to the package.json and lock files so that we do not track links on gh.
// This seems to modify the package.json file.
// What can we do with pnpm to have the link inforamtion in a seperate file
// - why do you cache the loaded links. When does this file get executed?
// Do we need this optimization.
// How do we guarantee, that we aleays use the most recent content from the links file?

// Manual transition to cjs. Claude proposed manual yaml parsing.

# Developing with linked packages
If you want to make changes to a package that Element Call depends on and see those changes applied in real time, you can create a link to a local copy of the package. Yarn has a command for this (`yarn link`), but it's not recommended to use it as it ends up modifying package.json with details specific to your development environment.
