Describe the bug

You've listed the Storybook dependency as ^9.2.0, but no such Storybook version exists (although there is a 9.2.0 alpha version). Why not list storybook V10 as a peerDependency, or >= 9.0.0 etc.?

BTW, https://www.npmjs.com/package/storybook-addon-accessibility-checker is confusing. Is your package called storybook-addon-accessibility-checker, or is it called storybook-addon-a11y, or is it called @storybook/addon-a11y?

The install problem happens with storybook-addon-accessibility-checker@9.2.0-rc.4.

To Reproduce

% npm i storybook-addon-accessibility-checker
npm warn ERESOLVE overriding peer dependency
npm warn While resolving: storybook-addon-accessibility-checker@9.2.0-rc.4
npm warn Found: storybook@undefined
npm warn node_modules/storybook
npm warn
npm warn Could not resolve dependency:
npm warn peer storybook@"^9.2.0" from storybook-addon-accessibility-checker@9.2.0-rc.4
npm warn node_modules/storybook-addon-accessibility-checker
npm warn   storybook-addon-accessibility-checker@"*" from the root project
npm error code ETARGET
npm error notarget No matching version found for storybook@^9.2.0.
npm error notarget In most cases you or one of your dependencies are requesting
npm error notarget a package version that doesn't exist.
npm error A complete log of this run can be found in: /Users/bill/.npm/_logs/2026-01-27T02_57_42_137Z-debug-0.log

Expected behavior
Install works.
