Check npm install exit code before running node scripts#192
Merged
Conversation
npm install output was piped through tail -1 to keep run logs clean, but this silently swallowed errors. When npm fails (e.g. missing packages, network issues inside containers), the script proceeds to node which crashes on missing modules with no diagnostic context. Capture npm output, check the exit code, and show full output only on failure. On success, still show just the summary line. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
