Error: "Local Development setup failed SfError: No published site found for: Test Local Dev"

Start with the downloadSite call in expSite.js and the LightningDevSite.run entry point in site.js named by the stack trace. Reproduce the sf lightning dev site command against a sandbox with a published Build Your Own LWR site, then inspect how the site is located.
