The unscoped package cap2ui5 was unpublished with 0.3.0, and the site said it is withdrawn from npm. It is being published again as cap2ui5@0.1.1, a deprecated notice: requiring it throws an error that names @cap2ui5/cds-plugin, and its cap2ui5 bin exits with the same pointer. The ecosystem page, the quickstart's "Coming from the package cap2ui5" box, AGENTS.md and verify-refs' comments and messages now say that. What the checker reports is unchanged: an import or dependency of cap2ui5 still installs nothing a reader can use.

What was published under the unscoped name on 2026-09-30 is cap2ui5@0.0.1-placeholder, not the notice package this PR was written for: no main and no throw - its cap2ui5 bin prints where to go and exits 1. The pages no longer claim that requiring it throws an error; they say it is a deprecated placeholder that installs nothing usable.

Superseded by #36. It carries the same placeholder wording, applied on top of #35, together with the update to 0.4.0. Generated by Claude Code |

The site says the unscoped
cap2ui5is "withdrawn from npm". Since 2026-09-30 04:17 UTC that is no longer true:cap2ui5@0.0.1-placeholderis on npm,latestand deprecated.What the placeholder is (read from the published tarball): no
main, and acap2ui5bin (index.js) that prints "This name is a placeholder. The package is @cap2ui5/cds-plugin …" to stderr and sets exit code 1. It installs nothing an app can use. The first version of this PR was written for a plannedcap2ui5@0.1.1notice whoserequirewould throw. That is not what was published, so the second commit describes the placeholder instead and no longer claims that requiring it throws.What changes

The swap commandnpm rm cap2ui5 && npm add @cap2ui5/cds-pluginstays.AGENTS.md: the ground truth (cap2ui5@0.0.1-placeholder, what it contains) and the verify-refs description.scripts/verify-refs.mjs: comments and messages only. It still reports an import or dependency oncap2ui5.HANDOVER.md, which records the state on 2026-09-29.Checks
