Description of Problem

The npm docs for ci state,

This command is similar to npm install, except it's meant to be used in automated environments such as test platforms, continuous integration, and deployment -- or any situation where you want to make sure you're doing a clean install of your dependencies. It can be significantly faster than a regular npm install by skipping certain user-oriented features. It is also more strict than a regular install, which can help catch errors or inconsistencies caused by the incrementally-installed local environments of most npm users.

The enumerated list of differences below do not mention the hooks run.

The documentation for prepare state,

• Runs BEFORE the package is packed
• Runs BEFORE the package is published
• Runs on local npm install without any arguments
• Run AFTER prepublish, but BEFORE prepublishOnly
• NOTE: If a package being installed through git contains a prepare script, its dependencies and devDependencies will be installed, and the prepare script will be run, before the package is packaged and installed.

It's not clear from these two passages whether or not npm ci runs the hooks that npm install does (namely prepare in my case). It's also not clear from the docs on prepare whether or not it runs under npm ci

Potential Solution

Document hooks with respect to ci, and document prepare as working under npm ci or not.
