Cannot execute driver function: "require is not defined" #840

Description

@Daniel-Svensson

I can no longer run driver functions (which I want to do to sync time to my devices).

Whenever I try to run a driver function I get an error

I've tried to run driver function such as

const { logger, zwaveClient, require } = this
logger.info(`Controller inclusion state: ${driver.controller.inclusionState}`);

I get an error: require is not defined.
I've tried a number of different functions including the built in suggested ping nodes and refresh, but no work.

I' am runnin zwave-js UI 5.3.1 under home assistant as a VM on x64,

z-wave-js UI: 5.3.1? (latest version as of nov 1)
home assistant os: 15.1
home assistant core: 2025.8.2
supoervisor: 2025.10.0

Full log:
