  - `stdout` and `stderr` are now getters that will concatenate strings on demand from collected `stdout`/`stderr` chunks
  - `maxBuffer` may now be passed to set a limit for how many characters/bytes are accepted on `stdout`/`stderr`. The command aborts and an error is thrown when this limit is exceeded
  - `spawnAsync` prevents exceeding maximum V8 string length and exposes a cut-off `stdout` and `stderr` on the corresponding error when the maximum string length is exceeded

Dependency tracking · free for 3 projects

## Know when your own dependencies move

This page watches @expo/spawn-async. inlinr reads your package.json and keeps the same watch on every dependency you declare, then tells you only what needs you.

- Advisories reach you  
An email when a critical or high advisory affects a project, before the next install.
- Upgrades checked first  
Peer ranges, Node, ESM-only and types changes read before you bump.
- Only what matters  
Majors and breaking notes stay; patches and sibling bumps fold into one line.
