    Done in the v1.8.0 working tree (uncommitted — release pending, see #40 for the npm republish half).

    Upgrade applied: Expo SDK 54 -> 57 across the root template, \examples/showcase, and all 13 feature \coderooz.json\ manifests.

    Config fixes: .nvmrc\ -> Node 24; \�pp.json\ version 1.2.0; tsconfig for TS 6 (no \�aseUrl, ./-prefixed \paths, *.css\ module declaration);
    ativewind-env.d.ts\ shipped in \ iles.

    Feature template fixes (TS errors 15 -> 0): Clerk error narrowing + form renames (\ClerkSignInForm/\ClerkSignUpForm), \useAuth\ self-import, \ eature-api\ tsconfig alias, \ eature-message\ returns \expo-sms\ \SMSResponse.

    Validation (all green): root lint 0, typecheck 0, tests 115/115, \�uild:all\ 0 (13/13 features valid), showcase \ sc --noEmit\ 0, bare CLI scaffold on SDK 57 \ sc --noEmit\ 0.
