📚 Description

this was introduced by me in #1528 🙈

basically auto-imports coming from a package exports subpath (nitro/h3, for example) end up as a relativised file path like ../../../node_modules/nitro/h3, which isn't a real file, so TypeScript resolves the whole declaration to any

I think emitting the bare specifier in that case is the smallest fix, letting package exports and its types condition do the resolving, and keeping the relativised path only where there's no subpath

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

writeTypes now emits bare package specifiers for exports subpaths and strips extensions only for matching files. New tests cover subpath exports, wildcard exports, and generated type declarations.

Changes

Auto-import type resolution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Preserve package export specifiers
src/build/types.ts
writeTypes stores bare package specifiers for exports subpaths. It strips extensions only when the subpath maps to a file on disk.
Validate generated type imports
test/unit/types-imports.test.ts
Tests create temporary package fixtures, inspect generated nitro-imports.d.ts specifiers, and verify resolution for subpath and wildcard exports.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to d59e2

The change emits bare package specifiers for exports subpaths, but exact extension-bearing export keys can still have their .js suffix removed, which may select a different export or fail to resolve. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up to preserve extensions and cover that case with a regression test.

- Line 90: Update the specifier normalization around the extension-removal logic
so extensions are preserved when resolving exact package export keys such as
./foo.js; only strip extensions for non-explicit keys. Add a regression fixture
covering an existing pkg/foo.js path and its exact exports key, verifying
TypeScript resolves the intended key.

The branch is clear from the code. Keep only comments that add non-obvious context.

As per coding guidelines, src/**/*.{ts,js,mjs} says: “Do not add comments explaining what the line does unless prompted.”
