…epo setups
In pnpm monorepos, require('react-native-worklets/package.json') may fail
to resolve from Reanimated's install location due to pnpm's strict
dependency isolation. This causes false 'package not installed' errors
even when worklets is correctly installed in the project.
Changes:
- Add fallback resolution using require.resolve with paths:[process.cwd()]
to find worklets from the project root when the standard require fails.
- Improve error messages with monorepo-specific guidance (use overrides/
resolutions to enforce consistent versions across the workspace).
- Both changes are backwards compatible — existing behavior is preserved
as the primary path, with monorepo fallbacks added.

Summary
Fixes worklets version resolution in pnpm monorepo setups.
In pnpm monorepos,
require('react-native-worklets/package.json')resolves from Reanimated's own install location rather than the user's project. Due to pnpm's strict dependency isolation, this can fail even when worklets is correctly installed in the project, producing a misleading "package isn't installed" error duringpod install.This PR adds a fallback resolution path using
require.resolvewithpaths: [process.cwd()]and improves error messages with monorepo-specific guidance (e.g., using package manager overrides/resolutions).All changes are backwards compatible, existing resolution is tried first.
Test plan
cd apps/my-app && npx pod-installManual verification: the fix was validated in a real pnpm monorepo where Reanimated 4.3.0 with worklets 0.8.1 was failing to resolve during pod install
