Description

By default, npm publishes scoped modules (e.g., @shopify/polaris) as private. Even if package.json says it's public.

Shipit should publish with the --access public flag.

Research direction

Start by locating Shipit's npm publishing entry point and inspect how scoped packages are published. Confirm the behavior described for a package such as @shopify/polaris, then verify that publishing uses npm's --access public option and that the package is no longer treated as private by default.
