I just tested in my Mac M1 Tahoe 26.2 (Darwin Kernel Version 25.2.0) and the exact same issue happens. Same Node.js version btw.

Can you reproduce it using an official release (i.e not through a homebrew installation)? It worked fine in the CI and in what I install via nvs (which just downloads the official release).
