# Install Node.js 22 LTS (needed by webcrack and @nodesecure/js-x-ray). Pinning

# Python wrapper's `node_modules/@nodesecure/js-x-ray` existence check passes
# without any runtime configuration. Version is pinned in the package.json.
# The npm install also triggers the `postinstall: patch-package` hook which
# re-applies the local patch in scripts/patches/ — currently a one-line fix
# for a `from "repl"` → `from "module"` import in [email protected] that breaks
# on Node 22 patches above ~22.10. Drop the patch when js-x-ray ships a fix.
