Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure with the linked nodejs-express-k8s branch, microk8s, and a non-root NodeJS user; inspect the alert's cryptic error from the exec updater. Done means live_update sync succeeds after modifying a file and the behavior is covered by a regression test.
