… binary Add `--package`/`-p` flag to `deno x` that allows specifying the package to install separately from the binary to execute, matching the `npx -p <package> <binary>` convention. This is useful when a package exposes multiple binaries (e.g. `typescript` has `tsc` and `tsserver`): deno x -p typescript tsc deno x -p typescript@5 tsc Previously, the only way to do this was: deno x typescript/tsc Closes #31667 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Closes #31667
Adds
--package/-pflag todeno xthat allows specifying the package to install separately from the binary to execute, matching thenpx -p <package> <binary>convention.This is useful when a package exposes multiple binaries (e.g.
typescripthastscandtsserver):Previously, the only way was
deno x typescript/tsc.The implementation combines
--packageand the binary name into{package}/{binary}before feeding it to the existing npm resolution flow, so all existing behavior is preserved.Test plan
-p(short) and--package(long) formsdeno xspec tests still pass🤖 Generated with Claude Code
