How to run shell script (.sh files) in Gulp 4?

Hello to everyone and Happy New Year!

Since Gulp version 4 I can't run a shell script.

I have simple shell script.

if application id "com.adobe.estoolkit-4.0" is running then
    display dialog "Close The App!" buttons {"OK"} default button 1
end if

When I run it this way, it works

const { exec } = require('child_process');

function checkAppisOpen() {
    return exec('./utils/check.sh');
};

exports.run = checkAppisOpen;

But when I'm trying to use npm gulp-shell plugin it won't work.

Error: Did you forget to signal async completion?

See the code:

const shell = require('gulp-shell');

function checkAppisOpen() {
    return shell('./utils/check.sh');
};

exports.run = checkAppisOpen;

I know I'm doing something wrong. Could please someone explain how this async completion works under the hood. Or at least where I could read about it. Because it seems like gulp documentation is not enough for me https://gulpjs.com/docs/en/getting-started/async-completion
