Seems to be related to #766

Same problem here with PR Metrics version 1.7.14. It's using Node 20.1 which doesn't support Object.groupBy(). It should be requiring Node 21+ which supports the Object.groupBy() function. Still trying to figure out why it wants version 20.1 while newer versions are available in the agent's external folder.

• The agent's externals folder contains node24 (version 24.13.0)
• Setting env AGENT_USE_NODE24 to true didn't help
• PR Metrics task.json file contains

  "execution": {
    "Node24": {
      "target": "index.mjs"
    }
  }

  which seems to be correct.
• Updating the Agent to 4.272.0 didn't help
