pnpm deploy failed with exit code

Error message

pnpm deploy failed with exit code ${deployed.status}

What it means

Guard in build-provider-pack.mjs: `pnpm --filter @paperclipai/paperclip-runner deploy --prod` exited non-zero while assembling the provider pack into the temporary root. It wraps a packaging-tool failure (dependency resolution, build script, or registry error) reported via exit code with inherited stdio.

Solutions

1. Inspect the pnpm deploy output printed above the error for the underlying failure
2. Ensure workspace dependencies resolve and install cleanly (`pnpm install`) before building the pack
3. Clear pnpm store/fetch cache if the failure is a corrupted fetch

When it happens
