Description
the module currently cannot be built locally, without downloading prebuilt binaries off github.
this should be available at least as a fallback if prebuilds are not available, or with --build-from-source/npm_config_build_from_source (analogical to node-pre-gyp)

Research direction
Start by tracing how this Node.js module obtains its prebuilt binaries and how its local Rust build is currently invoked. Check the package's build entry points and npm configuration handling; done means a documented fallback or explicit build-from-source option works when prebuilds are unavailable.
