Remove npm lockfile assumptions from media verification

🐞 Bug fix ⚙️ Configuration changes 🕐 Less than 5 minutes

Grey Divider

AI Description

• Removes npm caching, which requires a lockfile setup.
• Uses npm install so media verification works without a committed lockfile.
High-Level Assessment

The selected approach is appropriate for a repository without a dependable npm lockfile. Adding and maintaining a lockfile could enable npm ci and caching, but that is broader than this targeted workflow repair.

Allow dependency installation without an npm lockfile

• Removes setup-node's npm cache requirement and replaces 'npm ci' with 'npm install'. This prevents media endpoint verification from failing when no compatible lockfile is available.

Remediation recommended

1. Lockfile drift passes CI 🐞 Bug ☼ Reliability
Description
Replacing npm ci with npm install allows this job to silently reconcile an out-of-date lockfile
instead of failing, so dependency changes can pass CI while the committed installation remains
unusable through the repository's documented npm ci setup. This weakens reproducibility and can
defer dependency failures until development or deployment.
Code

.github/workflows/media-verify.yml[23]

+        run: npm install
Evidence
The workflow now invokes npm install, while the repository's documented setup explicitly uses `npm
ci; package.json` also contains ranged dependency declarations whose resolved graph is intended to
be fixed by the lockfile.

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The media workflow uses `npm install`, which can update or reconcile lockfile state rather than rejecting drift between `package.json` and the committed lockfile.

## Issue Context
The repository documents `npm ci` as its installation method, and its dependency declarations contain version ranges. CI should install exactly the committed dependency graph and fail when the manifest and lockfile disagree.

2. Dependency cache unnecessarily removed 🐞 Bug ➹ Performance
Description
Removing the setup-node npm cache eliminates reusable package-data caching on every push and
pull-request run, increasing installation latency and exposure to registry/network failures. The
modified repository has a lockfile available for generating the cache key, so the removed cache
configuration remains applicable.
Code

.github/workflows/media-verify.yml[21]

-          cache: 'npm'
Evidence
The workflow runs for both pushes and pull requests and performs a dependency installation, while
setup-node's official advanced-usage documentation states that its npm cache stores global package
data and uses lockfiles to generate cache keys.

.github/workflows/media-verify.yml[3-7]
.github/workflows/media-verify.yml[17-23]
🌐 The setup-node documentation states that package-manager caching stores global cache data rather than node_modules and shows npm caching keyed by package-lock.json.

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The workflow removes setup-node's npm cache even though the repository has a lockfile that can key the cache.

## Issue Context
The media workflow executes for pushes and pull requests and installs the project's full dependency graph. setup-node supports caching npm's global package data using the lockfile hash.

🟡 Changes recommended

The repo contains a package-lock.json, so the workflow should keep npm ci (and npm caching) to preserve reproducibility and avoid unnecessary CI slowdowns.
