## What / Why A user or global `.npmrc` can define `allow-scripts` as persistent policy. `setEnvs()` currently carries that non-default value into lifecycle child processes as `npm_config_allow_scripts`. If a lifecycle script runs a nested project-scoped `npm install`, the inner process treats the inherited value as an environment override and rejects it with `EALLOWSCRIPTS` instead of reloading the policy from its persistent config source. Mark `allow-scripts` as non-exportable. This only prevents `setEnvs()` from synthesizing the lifecycle environment variable; it does not remove an explicitly supplied environment value or change how the outer command reads its config. Pacote's git-preparation environment filtering and #9783 are outside this change. The regression test models a user-level value in the inherited config chain and verifies that lifecycle scripts do not receive `npm_config_allow_scripts`. ## AI assistance OpenAI Codex assisted with analysis, implementation, and test design. The patch was verified with the focused regression, the complete `@npmcli/config` suite, lint, and template checks. ## References Fixes #9912 (cherry picked from commit b016aa2)
