NX cloud issue with pnpm

[el-davo]

Current Behavior

I have the following github actions file. If anyone can help me figure out why pnpm is failing or where the pnpm install --frozen-lockfile command is even coming from, as it is not in my github actions file

name: CI
on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
  pull_request:

permissions:
  actions: read
  contents: read

jobs:
  main:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      - uses: pnpm/action-setup@v4
        with:
          version: 9

      - run: npx nx-cloud start-ci-run --distribute-on="3 linux-small-js" --stop-agents-after="build"
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v3
        with:
          node-version: 20
          cache: 'pnpm'
  
      - run: pnpm i
      - uses: nrwl/nx-set-shas@v4

      - run: npm run nx affected -t lint test build

Whenever I make a change I get this error on the nx cloud interface. Im not sure where this step is or why it fails. Even changing the package manager from pnpm to npm or yarn does not fix the issue as it always tries to run this pnpm install --frozen-lockfile command for some reason, if anyone can help I would be most grateful.

Expected Behavior

CI runs should pass
