All PRs blocked: required CI check 'build-and-test (18)' needs removal from branch protection

[TerminalGravity]

Problem

Every open PR is blocked because build-and-test (18) is a required status check in the main branch protection rules, but Node 18 doesn't support util.styleText (used by ESLint 10). This means the check always fails.

PR #51 fixes the CI matrix (drops Node 18), but it can't merge because... the Node 18 check is required. Classic deadlock.

Currently blocking: all 28+ open PRs.

Fix

1. Go to Settings → Branches → main branch protection rule
2. Remove build-and-test (18) from required status checks
3. Merge PR fix: drop Node 18 from CI — unblocks all 28 open PRs #51 to drop Node 18 from the CI matrix
4. Optionally add build-and-test (22) as a required check (Node 22 LTS)

Why Node 18 can't work

• ESLint 10 requires util.styleText (Node 20+)
• Node 18 reached EOL in September 2025
• The engines field in package.json should be updated to >=20

This is a 2-minute fix in GitHub settings.

Fixed — removed build-and-test (18) from required status checks and added build-and-test (22) instead. PR #51 should be unblocked now.

Node 18 hit EOL September 2025, and ESLint 10 requires util.styleText (Node 20+), so there's no reason to keep it in CI. Going forward we'll gate on Node 20 + 22 LTS.

Closing — branch protection has been updated. Node 18 check removed, Node 22 added. PR #51 is unblocked and should merge once CI passes, which will unblock the remaining 28+ PRs.
