Exclude compiled test files from the published npm package - #140

Conversation
`tsc` compiles `test/` into `build/test`, and the `files` field included all of `build`, so compiled mocha tests shipped to consumers. Add a `!build/test` negation entry so the tarball only contains the library and CLI code. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Problem
tsconfig.jsoncompilesindex.ts,lib/andtest/intobuild/, andpackage.jsonhad"files": ["build", "dictionaries"]. That meant every published tarball containedbuild/test/*.js— the compiled mocha test suite, including the 56 kBcli-test.js— which consumers download but can never use.Fix
Add a
!build/testnegation entry to thefilesarray. Test code is still compiled intobuild/testlocally, soyarn test(tsc && mocha build/test/**/*test.js) is unchanged.Pack before/after
Verified with
npm pack --dry-run:The 7 removed files are all
build/test/...entries.build/index.js, all ofbuild/lib/,dictionaries/,README.md,LICENSEandpackage.jsonare still included.yarn ci(spellcheck + eslint + 101 mocha tests) passes.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
