Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported jsonwebtoken browser failure in a SvelteKit project and capture the complete stack trace, package versions, and browser details. Compare the browser bundle path with the Node.js usage documented by the repository; done means the compatibility cause and a supported fix or required polyfill are clearly established.
