This line was copied from pnpm help run.

I think it'd be good to explicitly clarify how this works with pnpm run "/regex/" as you're not specifying an order then (afaik it uses the order of the scripts in package.json)

[KSXGitHub]

@zkochan Is the execution order an implementation detail, undefined behavior, or part of the spec?

[IanVS]

Since I see there's an option for --parallel, does that mean --sequential is the default? Edit: from testing, it seems that --parallel is the default, at least when using a regex.

[MattIPv4]

No, which is why I really want this documented.

If you're using pnpm run with a pattern it is parallel by default and you need to pass --sequential to run them in the order they're defined in package.json.
