tscPath
is pointed at a shim as resistant to change as I could think to make them (without trying to parse an AST). Because we rely on Typescript's source code, there's always a chance that a future update could break things, but this should be fairly resilient.I tested this on a local repository and have verified that it fixes the issue when using Typescript v5.7.2. It also maintains backwards compatibility for older Typescript versions that don't use a shim for tsc.
