Description

Ideally node-pre-gyp info would show both Debug and Release builds. But currently it is only smart enough to list the node versions and platforms. To see which Debug builds exist you have to pass node-pre-gyp info --debug. Fixing this would probably be a breaking change, but logging here for future reference.

Research direction

Start with the node-pre-gyp info command and compare its default behavior with node-pre-gyp info --debug. Determine how build configurations are discovered and define the output needed for both Debug and Release builds; done means the command reports Debug builds without requiring the --debug option.
