X_SCAFFOLD_FIRST_RUN_FAILED

a first-run command failed inside a freshly scaffolded app

one step of scripts/scaffold-first-run.ts exited non-zero — x db migrate against the pristine scaffold, then one x g per kind in the CLI's own GENERATORS registry, then x db gen and a second x db migrate over what they wrote — or the app has no x binary, which is bun install never having linked one. It exists because scaffold-smoke ran x new → bun install → x verify and nothing else, so three shipped defects sat outside CI: four generators emitting imports that resolve to nothing, a first migration with no snapshot sidecar, and a snapshot the app's own lint rejects. Every step runs — four broken generators are four findings in one run. scripts/scaffold-admin.ts raises it too: it boots x dev in a scaffold, creates, edits and deletes a row through the admin's own forms, and checks a member is refused

the fix is the single command that reproduces that step, verbatim: cd <app> && <app>/node_modules/.bin/x <args>. For a missing binary it is cd <app> && bun install --linker=hoisted
