chrome-launcher wont launch

It's kind of outside t3 scope but im hoping i can get some help here - the error is happening in my t3 app I'm using node to run lighthouse and chrome launcher wont launch in my dev env (mac monterey), with a t3 app It seems like there's something wrong with the dependency - (but typescript compiles) I think maybe it cant find chrome? But google chrome at /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome which google-chrome returns not found

import ChromeLauncher from "chrome-launcher";

const chromeOptions = {
  chromeFlags: ["--headless", "--disable-gpu"],
};

async function launchChrome() {
  try {
    const chrome = await ChromeLauncher.launch(chromeOptions);
    console.log("chrome running!");
    return chrome;
  } catch (e) {
    console.log("**** Chrome failed to launch", e);
    debugger; // always land here.
    throw e;
  }
}

import ChromeLauncher from "chrome-launcher";

const chromeOptions = {
  chromeFlags: ["--headless", "--disable-gpu"],
};

async function launchChrome() {
  try {
    const chrome = await ChromeLauncher.launch(chromeOptions);
    console.log("chrome running!");
    return chrome;
  } catch (e) {
    console.log("**** Chrome failed to launch", e);
    debugger; // always land here.
    throw e;
  }
}

error:

**** Chrome failed to launch TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'launch')
at launchChrome (webpack-internal:///(api)/./src/server/reporting/lighthouseRunner.ts:35:84)

**** Chrome failed to launch TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'launch')
at launchChrome (webpack-internal:///(api)/./src/server/reporting/lighthouseRunner.ts:35:84)

I tried: - Adding this to my env CHROME_PATH="/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome"
- Adding and removing chrome-launcher from package.json dependancies, deleting node_modules and reinstalling all "chrome-launcher": "^0.15.1",
- Making a symlink from Google\ Chrome to google-chrome (it wouldn't run from the terminal) - Copying Google\ Chrome to google-chrome, now it's in the path and launches with a warning (below) but chrome-launcher still doesnt launch ``` $ google-chrome [41560:259:0321/104228.826676:ERROR:keychain_password_mac.mm(103)] Keychain lookup failed: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-25293 "errKCAuthFailed / errSecAuthFailed: / Authorization/Authentication failed."
