@mushroomgenie are you working on this?

[mushroomgenie]

@sathvik-palley I got it to work. Turns out my iTerm was Rosetta-emulated, and so the node version being used was not arm64. I unchecked the Open using Rosetta checkbox on iTerm and installed an arm64 version of node. I am keeping this issue open in case someone else faces the same issue.
