The build is running npm ci when it should need npm install as there's a package-lock.json file. Without a change to the test harness to correct this and ideally a bump in the supported versions given even the v18 LTS is no longer in active support, this has a high risk of breaking due to dependency updates

[DmytroShalaiev]

What is required to apply the fix?

I'm going to assume this project does not have active support anymore. Are there recommended alternatives?
