THEN Implement a loader function that first attempts to load better-sqlite3 using `createRequire` (from 'module') to handle CommonJS modules, with a fallback to dynamic import and manual default export resolution. Always call this loader before using the Database constructor to ensure it is initialized.

async function loadSqlite() {
  const { createRequire } = await import('module');
  const require = createRequire(import.meta.url);
  Database = require('better-sqlite3');
  // test and return success
}
