## What it is
nps (npm-package-scripts) is a CLI tool that lets you move npm scripts out of package. into a package-scripts.js or YAML file. It supports comments, nesting, and JavaScript logic for defining project scripts.

## Use cases
- manage npm scripts without bloating package.
- add comments to project scripts
- organize nested script commands
- run concurrent build and test scripts
- define scripts with JavaScript logic instead of JSON

## When to choose
- your package. scripts section has become an unmaintainable mess
- you need comments or variables in your scripts
- you want nested, namespaced script commands

## When to avoid
- your project has only a few simple scripts
- your team prefers standard npm tooling with no extra dependency
