VUE ECOSYSTEM STANDARDIZES ON CLACK FOR CLI TOOLING

By RepoJournal · Filed 06:01 UTC on May 9, 2026 · About Vue.js

Both Router and Pinia are consolidating their release tooling around @clack/prompts, dropping a sprawl of legacy dependencies in the process.

Pinia led the way [1], eliminating chalk, execa, and prompts in favor of clack and native Node child_process APIs—a move that cuts maintenance surface area and locks in the ecosystem's CLI direction. Router followed suit [2], adopting the same @clack/prompts standard. This isn't just tidying: it signals the Vue core team has settled on clack as the canonical prompt library across all first-party tooling, which means your custom generators and scripts should probably follow. The shift away from execa and toward Node's built-in child_process reduces the dependency graph for both packages. If you're maintaining Vue-adjacent tools, expect this pattern to become the de facto standard.

Action items

→ Align your Vue CLI plugins and custom generators to use @clack/prompts instead of chalk/prompts vuejs/router [plan]
→ Review your project's dependency graph if you depend on both Router and Pinia—expect cleaner installs vuejs/pinia [monitor]
