Much thanks @gamesover This was the perfect fix for Monterey 12.4 on a M1.

if someone is using mini_racer 0.3.0 or below, please upgrade to gem 'mini_racer', '0.6.2' and comment out libv8

trust me, it will save you hours of dev config time

Still not working on Ruby@3.1 the only way out is reverting to ruby 3.0.4

Comment out Following 2 Gems from Gemfile

1: g em 'libv8'
2: gem 'therubyracer'

Add following Gem

gem 'mini_racer'

bundle install

Should work as suggested by @srfinkel
