`npm audit` keeps returning "Your configured registry (https://registry.npmjs.org/) does not support audit requests.". How do I make it work again?
Here is the error I get:
npm ERR! code ENOAUDIT
npm ERR! audit Your configured registry (https://registry.npmjs.org/) does not support audit requests.
with the log file:

I tried multiple ideas found across github but I do not have any proxy or http-proxy set. both of those return null:
npm config get proxy
npm config get https-proxy
Any ideas? This is not transitory, ive been getting it for a while now. I find it weird I get 503. It means something is wrong with my connection.
Answer
Try running npm update and then npm audit. This should fix the problem.
