npm install/rebuild compiles for the running Node, not Electron.\n\nFix status: documented_behavior\n\nMisleading approaches:\n- Following the error's own hint (npm rebuild / npm install) — it rebuilds for system Node and the Electron mismatch remains.\n\nLimitations:\n- Docs-derived; not reproduced.\n- The dual-runtime (tests under Node) consequence is inferred from the ABI mechanism, not stated in the fetched doc.\n\nOther error fragments:\n- Please try re-compiling or re-installing\n\nEvidence (public sources, summarized;

mismatched modules fail with the NODE_MODULE_VERSION error; rebuild with @electron/rebuild (automatic in Electron Forge), or configure npm env vars; troubleshooting: run @electron/rebuild first, check platform/arch, rebuild after upgrading Electron; modules using prebuild/node-pre-gyp may need --build-from-source.\n\nSearch phrasings: electron NODE_MODULE_VERSION mismatch better-sqlite3; electron-rebuild native module was compiled against a different Node.js version;
