ERR_UNSUPPORTED_NODE_MODULES_TYPE_STRIPPING when executing globally installed local-action on Node 23 #184
Description
I'm a bit at a loss. So apparently, @github/local-action doesn't include any transpiled bundle and relies on type-stripping to run(?). But that doesn't work in Node.js right now, since it refuses to do type-stripping in a node_modules/ folder, which will be where any third-party package ends up living.
This affects both installations via npm i -g and invocations via npx.
Therefore, when installing the package as advertised in the documentation and running it on a fairly recent MacOS with node v23.10, the following occurs:
$ local-action --help
node:internal/modules/typescript:170
throw new ERR_UNSUPPORTED_NODE_MODULES_TYPE_STRIPPING(filename);
^

}
Node.js v23.10.0Am I missing something, or is this a bug? Given there are no JavaScript sources for the bootstrap script, how is this supposed to work with Node versions without type stripping support?
