@chenrui333 Good morning. Thanks for opening the issue. Somehow the issue is not reproducible on fresh Amazon Linux 2023 instance using Nodejs 22.5.0 and CDK version 2.149.0 (build c8e5924). Running cdk init, after installing all the pre-requisites (I installed Nodejs using nvm per instructions at https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/current and also installed typescript per https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/v2/guide/getting_started.html), gives the below output:

# Welcome to your CDK TypeScript project

This is a blank project for CDK development with TypeScript.

The `cdk.json` file tells the CDK Toolkit how to execute your app.

## Useful commands

* `npm run build`   compile typescript to js
* `npm run watch`   watch for changes and compile
* `npm run test`    perform the jest unit tests
* `npx cdk deploy`  deploy this stack to your default AWS account/region
* `npx cdk diff`    compare deployed stack with current state
* `npx cdk synth`   emits the synthesized CloudFormation template

Initializing a new git repository...
hint: Using 'master' as the name for the initial branch. This default branch name
hint: is subject to change. To configure the initial branch name to use in all
hint: of your new repositories, which will suppress this warning, call:
hint: 
hint:   git config --global init.defaultBranch <name>
hint: 
hint: Names commonly chosen instead of 'master' are 'main', 'trunk' and
hint: 'development'. The just-created branch can be renamed via this command:
hint: 
hint:   git branch -m <name>
Executing npm install...
npm error Exit handler never called!
npm error This is an error with npm itself. Please report this error at:
npm error   <https://github.com/npm/cli/issues>
npm error A complete log of this run can be found in: /home/ec2-user/.npm/_logs/2024-07-18T17_31_27_666Z-debug-0.log
✅ All done!

I noticed that you mentioned that this issue could be due to version of Homebrew. Could you please share what is the version of Homebrew installed on your system by running brew --version?

Thanks, Ashish

nodejs has reported a problem in nodejs 22.5.0 with advice to rollback to 22.4.1, link

[chenrui333]

probably this issue, https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/53934

homebrew has shipped the node 22.5.1 (it works fine with that release), closing this report.
