//electron-binaryElectron >=42 ships no postinstall and fetches its binary on first run of its own CLI. electron-vite resolves the binary path directly, so it never triggers that — without this prefix a fresh clone fails with 'Error: Electron uninstall'. It is a ~0.7s no-op once installed. Not in postinstall: CI only lints/tests/builds, and electron-builder downloads its own dist, so no CI job needs the binary.
