It should be pnpm add <pkg> instead of pnpm install <pkg>.

pnpm install is used to install all dependencies for a project while pnpm add <pkg> is used to install a package and any packages that it depends on.

More info (official source):


pnpm install <pkg> does the same as pnpm add <pkg> today, but it might stop functioning that way in future versions since the official docs clarify the difference between the two. It might be that pnpm install <pkg> was used in past versions, and the PNPM team didn't want to remove support for it right away after introducing pnpm add <pkg>.
