Description

I've installed lightningcss-cli globally for Node, for Bun, and even copied the binary from those directly to /usr/local/bin. Whenever I to execute the lightningcss binary, I get this error:
/home/sky/.bun/bin/lightningcss: line 1: This: command not found
I'm not sure what other steps to take, but I'd like to be able to use the project.

Research direction

Start by reproducing execution of the lightningcss entry point from the reported /home/sky/.bun/bin/lightningcss and /usr/local/bin paths after installing lightningcss-cli for Node and Bun. Trace how the package provides that binary and verify that the installed command executes successfully rather than treating its first line as a shell command.
