function writeOutMetadata(result) {
  // stdout.write(`${result}`);
  stdout.write(`RESULTS\n`);
}

function auditFiles() {
  const auditBuffer = execSync('npm audit --json --omit=dev', (err, result) => {
    if (err) {
      stdout.write(`There was error during dependency audit.\n`);
    }
    result;
  });
  writeOutMetadata(auditBuffer);
}

Gives me :

node:child_process:826
    err = new Error(msg);
          ^

Error: Command failed: npm audit --json --omit=dev

  stderr: Buffer(0) [Uint8Array] []

Why is the command failing even though I'm getting output?

The application itself is returning an error state.

I figured that out. Audit returning a 1 when audit-level exceeded
