Research direction

Compare the README's Core Commands section with the linked safe npm FAQ, focusing on the claims about npm, pnpm, and yarn. Confirm the intended scope with a maintainer, then update the relevant documentation so both sources agree and clearly describe the supported commands and security features.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

documentation

Hiya! There is (at least from my socket-inexperienced perspective) an inconsistency from the safe npm FAQ and this project's README.

The FAQ (chapter "How is the wrapper implemented?") says safe npm only currently works with npm, whilst the README mentions wrapping pnpm and yarn with security features

Does the latter refer to non-install security features? Or is the FAQ behind on this documentarion?
