You may run pacman -Syu every day, but when did you last refresh every Node major you keep in nvm?

I added update-nvm.sh for that. It updates each installed major to the latest patch, refreshes global npm packages, upgrades npm via --latest-npm, and runs corepack enable. It skips versions already on the latest patch unless you pass --force.

Install

curl -fsSL https://omid.dev/scripts/update-nvm.sh -o ~/.local/bin/update-nvm
chmod +x ~/.local/bin/update-nvm

update-nvm              # every major already installed via nvm
update-nvm --lts        # only lts/*
update-nvm 24           # one major
update-nvm 28           # install a new major (prompts to copy globals from another)
update-nvm --prune      # drop older patch releases within each major
update-nvm -q --lts     # quiet one-liner for cron
update-nvm --dry-run    # preview commands

Cron (weekly LTS refresh, quiet, prune old patches):

0 3 * * 0 ~/.local/bin/update-nvm -q --lts --prune

When installing a major that is not installed yet, the script asks whether to copy global npm packages from another major. Press Enter for a fresh install (default), or pick a source major. For non-interactive installs, set NVM_REINSTALL_FROM=24.

Run update-nvm --help for the full option list. Source: static/scripts/update-nvm.sh.
