Description
https://github.com/codesandbox/codesandbox-client/issues/5249
This issue was closed ^ but I don't believe it has been resolved.
There is no way to specify the version of npm to use in CodeSandbox CI. Right now CodeSandbox CI is using npm version 6.14.15. This doesn't support npm workspaces. The install command in npm 6.14.15 just installs deps from the root package.json, not the workspaces package.jsons.
I am currently getting around this by installing npm 8.5.0 & then installing in my installCommand in the CodeSandbox CI config file.
Feature Request: Can we have a way to specify the npm version in the CodeSandbox config?
Thanks! I love this feature its extremely helpful in developing npm packages 🙏

Start by reading the CodeSandbox CI configuration and how its installCommand is handled; the issue does not name a source file or test. Trace where the npm version is selected, then verify that the configuration can choose a newer npm version and install workspace dependencies as requested.
