Research direction

Start by running swift package bridge-js on macOS with Swift 6.3 and inspect JavaScriptKit/Sources/BridgeJSTool/BridgeJSCore/ClosureCodegen.swift, where the missing module is imported. Trace the package's SwiftSyntax-related dependencies and verify that the command completes without the SwiftBasicFormat error.
