Use local lerna packages as scripts on the root folder

I have several packages inside scripts that used in root.

I use npm link scripts/babel-preset which enables me to use the preset in the main babel.config.js and I wonder if this is the right way to do it or I miss the obvious here?

root
|-- packages/
|-- scripts
    |-- babel-preset
|-- babel.config.js
|-- package.json
|-- lerna.json

I am aware of lerna bootstrap but it works in sub-folders between siblings. My issue is using packages in root.

Is there anyway to use scripts in the root without using npm link for every single package?

Thank You.

In root package.json I added required scripts as local devDependencies: 

{
    ...
    "devDependencies": {
        ....
        "babel-preset": "file:scripts/babel-preset",
        ....
    }
}

It works fine with npm install

UPDATE:

If you are using yarn you don't need any internal link. Yarn will take care of everything.
