npmInstall running when not needed

[slatin-esteco]

I have in the build.gradle a NpmTask that launch automatically a script in the package.json. My problem is that I am changing npm to pnpm and the plugin when it detects changes in the package.json launch npmInstall but It mustn't do this. Is there a way to override the npmInstall with pnpmInstall, block the npmInstall or set node to absolutely not use npm but use pnpm?

Node settings:

One of the incriminated tasks

The relative script in package.json:

The node that I install doesn't have pnpm but I don't think it is the real problem

Does changing from npm_run_build to pnpm_run_build work?
The <foo>_run_ rules add a dependency to their install equivalent (i.e. npm_run_foo depends on npmInstall and pnpm_run_foo depends on pnpmInstall)

I'm not familiar with how nx works, but if it handles the pnpm install already you might want to register your own PnpmTask that's configured the same as your task above
https://github.com/node-gradle/gradle-node-plugin/blob/main/docs/usage.md#executing-npm-commands-via-npx has some examples

unfortunatly pnpm_run doesn't exist if I am correct (I tried and searched online). To resolve the problem I am changing every task I have by registering tasks with the PnpmTask set like this:

But the old method that invoked automatically the npm scripts was easier to use for me
