Hi @Rom888 👋

Thank you for raising this. It seems like you are using Node.js v22, for which we don't have prebuild bindings at this time at all in the cdktf/node-pty-prebuilt-multiarch library. The simplest fix would be to use Node.js v20 for the CDKTF CLI.

That said, the package should build the binaries during post-install as a fallback but it seems like pnpm didn't run the postinstall script? We don't officially support pnpm at this time, so you might need to adjust some settings for it or use npm to install the CDKTF CLI.
