This is SOOOO annoying!! I just spent SOO many hours trying to track down the same issue!

My conclusion: pnpm's dependency resolution gets wonky after cleanup - the hoisting and linking gets messed up.

The (janky) solution I found: add: "resolutions": { "zod": "^3.22.0" }. to your package.json. That should force consistent versions.

I think we really need to figure out how to address this issue because it causes such horrible devx if someone isn't aware of what's happening. The only other solution I have found is to nuke the entire directory and re-clone it.

Encounter same issue, Could you able to solve this issue?

Sorry, I just saw this as I was busy.

The tagged version didn’t have any issues, so I was working with that.
I didn’t specifically work on fixing this issue.

I checked today, and it doesn’t seem to occur anymore.
So I’ll go ahead and close this.
