React Native invalid podfile "No such file or directory - ./node_modules/.bin/react-native."

In my react native project react-native@60.5 in the iOS dir I get this issue when running a pod install

[!] Invalid `Podfile` file: No such file or directory - ./node_modules/.bin/react-native.

 #  from /Users/username/appname/ios/Podfile:44
 #  -------------------------------------------
 #  
 >    use_native_modules!
 #  end
 #  -------------------------------------------

This is a React Native fresh init from >@60.0; All worked perfect until I cleared my cache and installed node_modules with the following commands - this may have not been necessary or a good move on my part.

watchman watch-del-all && 
rm -rf $TMPDIR/react-native-packager-cache-* &&
rm -rf $TMPDIR/metro-bundler-cache-* && 
rm -rf node_modules/ 
&& npm cache clean --force &&
npm install && 
npm start -- --reset-cache

Here is my podfile

platform :ios, '9.0'
require_relative '../node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-ios/native_modules'

My CI build system still works fine with the same podfile and package.json

Any help will be appreciated!
