u-claw/portable/lib/start.mjs

#!/usr/bin/env node
// U-Claw portable launcher.
//
// Everything the old START HERE - Windows.bat and START HERE - Mac.command did lives here, so
// the two platforms cannot drift apart again and so every user-facing string can
// be translated. The launchers are now thin shells that locate node and hand off.
//
// Two constraints drove this:
//   1. tests/windows-launchers.test.mjs requires customer-facing .bat files to be
//      pure ASCII — Chinese Windows cmd.exe reads non-ASCII bytes as GBK and
//      mis-parses the script. Localised text therefore cannot live in a .bat.
//   2. cmd.exe treats an unescaped ) as a block terminator, which produced a
//      class of flash-exit regressions. Moving the logic out removes the hazard.
//
// Errors follow the house rule: what happened, why, and one thing to do next.
