Description

Moves the example apps and the library dev dependency from Reanimated/Worklets nightlies to the stable releases (4.6.0 / 0.12.1). The nightly worklets patch (jest mock fix) is no longer needed with the stable release, so the patch file and its references are removed.

expo is additionally pinned to exact 57.0.16. The patched resolution is keyed on the expo-modules-core range that expo declares (~57.0.13), so a future expo release changing that range would silently stop applying the patch; an exact pin prevents that.

Test plan

  • yarn install
  • Build expo-example on Android and iOS, check that expo-modules-core compiles against Worklets 0.12.1.

CodeRabbit blocks several paths by default. You can override this behavior by explicitly including those paths in the path filters. For example, including **/dist/** will override the default block on the dist directory, by removing the pattern from both the lists.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the monorepo’s Reanimated/Worklets dependency set from nightly builds to stable releases, and adjusts the Expo-related patching strategy to match the stable Worklets API while pinning Expo to an exact version to ensure the patch continues to apply.

Changes:

  • Switch react-native-reanimated to 4.6.0 and react-native-worklets to 0.12.1 across the library and example workspaces (via Yarn constraints + package.json updates).
  • Pin apps/expo-example’s expo dependency to 57.0.16.
  • Update the Yarn resolutions patch target for expo-modules-core and add a new patch file to replace executeSync with runSync.
