403 Forbidden: Pre-built binaries not installable for [email protected] and [email protected]

Problem

When installing [email protected] on Node 22 (macOS arm64), npm attempts to download a prebuilt binary but receives a 403 Forbidden error:

npm error node-pre-gyp http GET https://gnbyoxcowpfpalflhptv.supabase.co/storage/v1/s3/libpg-query-node/queryparser-v16.3.0-node-v127-darwin-arm64.tar.gz
npm error node-pre-gyp ERR! install response status 403 Forbidden on https://gnbyoxcowpfpalflhptv.supabase.co/storage/v1/s3/libpg-query-node/queryparser-v16.3.0-node-v127-darwin-arm64.tar.gz 
npm error node-pre-gyp WARN Pre-built binaries not installable for [email protected] and [email protected] (node-v127 ABI, unknown) (falling back to source compile with node-gyp) 

Unfortunately, the fallback source compile also fails, but that failure is not the central point of this ticket. I'll include details below.

---

Environment

• Node.js: 22.12.0
• OS: macOS 15.4.1 on Apple Silicon
• libpg-query: 16.3.0
• npm: 10.9.0

---

Steps to Reproduce

1. Use Node 22.12.0 on macOS arm64.
2. Run npm install libpg-query.

---

Observed Behavior

• npm tries to download the prebuilt binary from the Supabase storage URL above.
• The request returns a 403 Forbidden.
• npm then attempts to build from source, which fails due to a missing or incompatible system function (strchrnul), likely related to the macOS deployment target.

---

Expected Behavior

• The prebuilt binary should be downloadable, so I shouldn't be falling back to the failing source compile.

---

Additional Notes

• This setup worked previously, so the 403 may be due to a recent change in storage permissions or a missing upload.
• The fallback "compile from source" fails with the following error(s): error: static declaration of 'strchrnul' follows non-static declaration and note: 'strchrnul' has been marked as being introduced in macOS 15.4 here, but the deployment target is macOS 10.7.0

---

Any help restoring access to the prebuilt binary or guidance on building from source would be appreciated!

Update: I was able to overcome the failing "compile from source" by upgrading from 16.3 to 17 (see: #87)
