Description
The require-execsync-try-catch ESLint rule in pkg/workflow/js/ contains dead code: the withinDeferredBoundary helper (lines 148-160) is computed but never used — the value is immediately void-ed. This dead code adds noise, makes the rule harder to maintain, and could confuse contributors.

Suggested Changes
- Remove the
withinDeferredBoundary computation at lines 148-160 of the require-execsync-try-catch rule file
- If the logic may be needed in future, extract it to a comment documenting the intended semantics
- Ensure all existing rule tests still pass after the removal
Files Affected
pkg/workflow/js/ — the require-execsync-try-catch rule implementation (exact file TBD, locate via grep -r withinDeferredBoundary)
Success Criteria
withinDeferredBoundary dead code removed- All ESLint rule tests pass
- No false-positive/false-negative behavior changes
Priority
Low — pure code cleanliness, no runtime impact; but good practice before the rule gains wider usage.
