Summary: react#57475 pointed Metro's `getModulesRunBeforeMainModule` at `react-native/setup-env` (`src/setup-env.js`) instead of `InitializeCore`. But Metro's serializer only emits a run-before-main require for modules **already in the bundle graph** — see `getAppendScripts`: ```js const paths = [...options.runBeforeMainModule, entryPoint]; for (const path of paths) { if (modules.some(module => module.path === path)) { /* emit run stmt */ } } ``` Nothing imports `src/setup-env.js` at runtime, so it was silently dropped. The RN environment setup (`setUpDefaultReactNativeEnvironment`: `HMRClient`, timers, batched bridge, `AppRegistry` setup, …) then never ran before the app's main module, and the app **redboxed on launch**: ``` Error: Failed to call into JavaScript module method HMRClient.setup(). Module has not been registered as callable. Registered callable JavaScript modules (n = 1): AppRegistry. ``` This broke the **template E2E tests** on both iOS and Android — the app renders a redbox, so Maestro's `assertVisible: 'Welcome to React Native'` fails (the `test (…)` jobs are green only because the Maestro step runs with `continue-on-error: true`; the real failure surfaces via the retry chain and the `retry_2 / report` job). ## Fix Have the deprecated `InitializeCore` delegate to `'react-native/setup-env'` via a side-effectful `require`. `InitializeCore` is a guaranteed graph entry (renderer → `ReactNativePrivateInitializeCore` → `InitializeCore`), so this pulls `src/setup-env.js` into the graph, and `getModulesRunBeforeMainModule` runs it before the main module again. Behavior is unchanged: `setup-env` and `InitializeCore` both call the idempotent `setUpDefaultReactNativeEnvironment()`. This keeps react#57475 move to `setup-env` intact rather than reverting it. ## Changelog: [General][Fixed] - Fix app failing to initialize (`HMRClient.setup()` redbox) because the environment setup module was dropped from the bundle Pull Request resolved: react#57492 Test Plan: - Template E2E (`test_e2e_ios_templateapp` / `test_e2e_android_templateapp`) should pass: app launches and shows "Welcome to React Native" instead of the redbox. cc huntie (react#57475) Reviewed By: cipolleschi Differential Revision: D111226610 Pulled By: huntie fbshipit-source-id: b44e82a248c1f2333c2ea85001c9f243b54619ad
