Dev client red screen: No script URL provided (launcher never appears)

ExpoConfirmed fix

Expo SDK 56+, EAS iOS dev builds

Error
No script URL provided

Cause

SDK 56 links Expo's prebuilt XCFrameworks on EAS (local builds compile from source). A prebuilt artifact mismatched a pinned native version (reanimated/worklets), React host startup broke, and expo-dev-launcher never got to intercept.

Fix

Disable precompiled modules for the development profile in eas.json and rebuild:

JSON
"development": { "env": { "EXPO_USE_PRECOMPILED_MODULES": "0" } }
