In my case I had "use node;" at the top of my file 😦

To clarify, was this an error that happened in a function with "use node" at the top of the file? Or was this an error that happened in a function without "use node" where the fix was to add "use node" and we could've given a nice error message suggesting that fix?

For the latter, I totally agree and have this on my todo list (and thanks for the reminder). If the former, this sounds like a potential bug and I'd love to understand more!

#

I had accidentally included the semicolon "use node;"

#

which was my problem
