+        Using npx to install and run packages introduces significant supply chain security risks for the following reasons:
+
+        1. **Unpinned by default**: Running `npx <package>` fetches the latest release outside of your lockfile. If a malicious version of a package is published ([example])(https://socket.dev/blog/npm-author-qix-compromised-in-major-supply-chain-attack), `npx` will install and execute it the next time it is run.  
+
+        2. **Bypasses lockfile guarantees**: Packages executed with npx are not added to your project's package.json or lockfile. As a result, their versions and lockfile integrity hashes are not captured for reproducibility, making builds non-deterministic and harder to audit
+
+        ### Recommended practice
+        - Add packages as dependencies or devDependencies in `package.json`.  
+        - Use your package manager to install and execute them (e.g., `yarn add <package> --dev` followed by `yarn <package> <command>`).
+        
+        **Bad example (using npx):**
+        ```json
+        {
+          "scripts": {
+            "lint": "npx eslint src/"
+          }
+        }
+        ```
+        
+        **Good example (proper dependency):**
+        ```json
+        {
+          "scripts": {
+            "lint": "eslint src/"
+          },
+          "devDependencies": {
+            "eslint": "^8.0.0"
+          }
+        }
+        ```
+        
+    message: >-
+      Avoid using 'npx' to run packages due to supply chain security risks. Instead, install the package 
+      as a dependency / devDependency and invoke it using your package manager to ensure version pinning 
+      and reproducibility.
