We replaced nyc with c8 in the other repos, so I think we could do the same here. It should be a straightforward change. We only have to replace the package, then update the package.json configuration and command usage by changing nyc to c8.

Also, @dpogue had been overriding the yargs dependency in c8 recently, but I don't remember the exact reason.

"overrides": {
  "c8": {
    "yargs": "^18.0.0"
  }
}

For consistency, we could include the same override here.

One thing to be aware of is that yargs has a minimum Node.js version requirement of ^20.19.0 || ^22.12.0 || >=23, which is higher than what we had defined: >=20.17.0 || >=22.9.0. I believe its OK to keep our minimum since their requirements are development dependency. If we wanted to reflect that distinction in our package.json, I believe we could set the devEngines property.

yargs 17 (which c8 depends on) is not compatible with Node 26: yargs/yargs#2509

c8 is a devDependency, so we have a bit of flexibility in terms of upgrading without forcing a major version bump to our public API

definitely not a fan of using the overrides but I can replace nyc with c8 with the yargs override for the sake of consistency.

norman@norman-workstation:/development/cordova/breautek/cordova-plugman$ npm ls yargs
plugman@4.0.0-dev /development/cordova/breautek/cordova-plugman
└─┬ c8@11.0.0 overridden
  └── yargs@18.0.0 overridden

Had to also run npm upgrade which might have updated other sub-packages otherwise it produced:

npm ls yargs
plugman@4.0.0-dev /development/cordova/breautek/cordova-plugman
└─┬ c8@11.0.0 overridden
  └── yargs@17.7.2 invalid: "^18.0.0" from node_modules/c8 overridden
