[BUG] npm ci wipes out the scripts in the .bin folder and does not replace them

[wandyezj]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

This issue exists in the latest npm version

• I am using the latest npm

Current Behavior

npm ci wipes out scripts in the .bin folder instead of reinstalling them.

Expected Behavior

npm ci reinstalls .bin scripts for each package

Steps To Reproduce

Use the npm version that comes with Node LTS this is NPM 8.1

1. npm install --save-dev prettier typescript
2. npm ci
3. npm ci
4. observe that tsc and prettier are not present in the node_modules\.bin
5. shake fist in confusion as previous scripts that pointed to tsc and prettier in the .bin folder fail

Environment

• npm: 8.1
• Node: 16.13.0
• OS: Windows 10
• platform: Surface Laptop
• npm config:

; "builtin" config from C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\npmrc

prefix = "C:\\Users\\<REDACTED>\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm"

; "user" config from C:\Users\<REDACTED>\.npmrc

email = "not-used@example.com"

; node bin location = C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe
; cwd = <REDACTED>
; HOME = <REDACTED>
; Run `npm config ls -l` to show all defaults.

note: should be an option to remove customer information in the npm config ls
