Research direction
Start by reproducing npm start from index.js on Windows with Node.js 18.15.0, then trace the startup path associated with the ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ESM_URL_SCHEME stack trace. Done means the example server starts successfully on Windows with the reported environment; the issue does not mention a specific test file.
