pnpx executes npm packages without permanently installing them, similar to npx. It downloads the package to a temporary location, runs the specified command, and cleans up afterward.
This is an alias for pnpm dlx. Use -p to specify a package name when the executable name differs from the package name. The @version suffix allows running a specific package version.
