Implements three-layer defense against native module version mismatches:
Layer 1: Node.js Version Tracking
- Track Node.js version alongside package version in .install-version marker
- Auto-trigger npm install when Node.js version changes
- Backward compatible with old plain-text version marker format
Layer 2: Native Module Verification
- Add verifyNativeModules() function to test better-sqlite3 loads correctly
- Verify after install completes to catch corrupted builds
- Retry with force flag if initial install verification fails
Layer 3: Graceful Failure
- Catch ERR_DLOPEN_FAILED in context-hook and delete version marker
- Exit cleanly to avoid error spam in Claude Code UI
- Auto-fix on next session start
Changes:
- scripts/smart-install.js: Add Node.js version tracking and verification
- src/hooks/context-hook.ts: Add graceful failure handling for native module errors
- tests/smart-install.test.js: Add tests for version marker format compatibility
- plugin/scripts/context-hook.js: Built output from TypeScript source
Fixes the issue where users see ERR_DLOPEN_FAILED errors after Node.js upgrades,
requiring manual npm install. Now automatically detects and fixes the issue.
