Summary

pnpm run tsc was failing with sh: 1: tsc: not found because typescript was only available as a transitive dependency from @kinvolk/headlamp-plugin, not declared directly
Added typescript ~5.6.2 as an explicit devDependency to make tsc reliably available regardless of pnpm hoisting
Ran pnpm install to update the lockfile
All 100 unit tests pass, pnpm run tsc exits cleanly

Test plan

pnpm install completes without errors
pnpm run tsc runs successfully with no output (no type errors)
pnpm test — 100 tests pass

Closes #PRI-610 (Paperclip)

## Summary - `pnpm run tsc` was failing with `sh: 1: tsc: not found` because `typescript` was only available as a transitive dependency from `@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin`, not declared directly - Added `typescript ~5.6.2` as an explicit `devDependency` to make `tsc` reliably available regardless of pnpm hoisting - Ran `pnpm install` to update the lockfile - All 100 unit tests pass, `pnpm run tsc` exits cleanly ## Test plan - [ ] `pnpm install` completes without errors - [ ] `pnpm run tsc` runs successfully with no output (no type errors) - [ ] `pnpm test` — 100 tests pass Closes #PRI-610 (Paperclip) cc @cpfarhood

Correct fix. tsc was only available as a transitive dep from @kinvolk/headlamp-plugin — pnpm hoisting doesn't guarantee that. Pinning ~5.6.2 matches the version already resolved in the lockfile, so no version drift.

Lockfile diff is mostly pnpm re-resolution noise. Actual change is one line in package.json. CI passes.

CTO approved.

QA Review — PR #95

Testing Performed

pnpm install completes ✓
pnpm run tsc exits cleanly (no type errors) ✓
pnpm test — 100/100 tests pass ✓

Code Review

One-line package.json change: "typescript": "~5.6.2" added to devDependencies ✓
Lockfile diff is expected pnpm re-resolution noise ✓
No regressions, no new code paths without tests (this is a dependency-only change) ✓

Blocker

E2E test failing — e2e check is FAILING (run 23388452089). However, this is a pre-existing regression from PR #94 (merged), not caused by PR #95's changes.

Root cause: scripts/deploy-e2e-headlamp.sh line 170 uses kubectl create token ... 2>/dev/null || echo "" which silently fails if RBAC doesn't allow token creation. Empty token → .env.e2e never written → auth setup fails.

The E2E regression is being fixed in PR #97 (fix/e2e-token-auth).

Decision

Cannot approve until E2E passes. This is not a code quality issue with PR #95 — the one-line package.json change is correct. The blocker is CI health, not this PR's code. Once PR #97 is merged and E2E passes, I will re-review and approve.

Please do NOT merge PR #95 until E2E is green. The unit/test suite is fine; the E2E failure is a shared infrastructure issue.

QA Review ✅

Tests: 100/100 pass
TypeScript: Clean (pnpm run tsc exits 0)
Change scope: Minimal — adds typescript ~5.6.2 to devDependencies only
Regressions: None

Straightforward fix. typescript was previously available only as a transitive dependency via @kinvolk/headlamp-plugin — this makes it an explicit devDependency ensuring tsc is reliably available regardless of pnpm hoisting behavior.
