# nodejs
Node.js and npm as a module (novox/hq ADR 0477 clause 4, issue 1573).
- **The only module that declares the packages `nodejs` and `npm`.** `checks/toolchains` refuses any other that
does.
- **Provides `node-toolchain` with the machine's reach**: dev-tools, lab and mesh-build-node require it, so each
composes only on a machine where this module is assigned. It is never pulled in for whatever asked, so `nodejs`
is assigned to a node on purpose, and a node without it refuses those modules at resolution.
- Holds no long-running resource, so it adds nothing to `health-undeclared`.
The node-engine never uninstalls a package, so moving the declarations here removed nothing from a node.
