CircleCI bad engine warnings linux-build: node ^18.18.0 required

[MikeMcC399]

• Follow on from CircleCI bad engine warnings: node ^18.18.0 required #851

Issue

The .circleci/config.yml workflow shows multiple EBADENGINE warnings due to recently updated ESLint dependencies.

The dependencies are requiring typically node: '^18.18.0 || ^20.9.0 || >=21.1.0' whereas CircleCI is running under node: 'v18.16.1'

Windows and Mac workflows have been fixed to use Node.js 20.x. The linux-build workflow remains unresolved:

Workflow	Job	Node.js
linux-build	3 machines	v18.16.1
"	2 machines using Firefox	v18.16.1
"	2 machines using Chrome	v18.16.1

Expected result

.node-version is set to 20, so CircleCI jobs should also run in all workflows under Node.js 20

[MikeMcC399]

I need some assistance on this issue or I need to pass it on to somebody familiar with CircleCI and the Cypress CircleCI Orb.

• Issue Docs for running with a specified node-version doesn't show how to change node version circleci-orb#468 is unresolved

• I don't see any parameter in the Cypress CircleCI Orb job cypress/run https://github.com/cypress-io/circleci-orb/blob/master/src/jobs/run.yml to select a Node.js version

This could mean that an enhancement to the CircleCI Orb would be necessary or that the .circleci/config.yml workflows job linux-build in this repo would need to be restructured to be able to run under Node.js 20.x.

[MikeMcC399]

• I submitted PR ci: convert linux tests for Node.js 20 #859 which replaces the use of Cypress Circle CI Orb job cypress/run with the Cypress Circle CI Orb command cypress/run-tests and this allows a selection of the Node.js version. So actually at this time I don't need assistance to solve this issue.
• There is a follow-up needed on the CircleCI documentation in issue Docs for running with a specified node-version doesn't show how to change node version circleci-orb#468 for future clarification.
