• This template always runs the PowerShell task (no condition). To be consistent with other step templates and to avoid failing jobs that intentionally skip publishing, consider adding a CustomCondition parameter (defaulting to succeeded()) and applying it to the task via condition: ${{ parameters.CustomCondition }}.

  Registry: 'https://registry.npmjs.org/'

The new reset-npmrc template step is invoked unconditionally. Previously the deleted-.npmrc step had condition: and(succeeded(), ne(variables['SkipPublishing'], 'true')); without that, a build with no packages (SkipPublishing=true) will still run npm config ... and can fail the job even though publishing is meant to be skipped. Add the same condition to the template invocation or have the template accept a CustomCondition parameter and apply it to the task.
