Errors encountered with one-shot AI

This is a lists of silly errors I've seen agents encounter, and how they should fix them.

Could not resolve @glimmer/application.json

Error

✘ [ERROR] Could not resolve "@glimmer/application.json" [plugin embroider-esbuild-resolver]

    node_modules/.pnpm/@glimmer+component@1.1.2_@babel+core@7.28.5/node_modules/@glimmer/component/dist/modules/es2017/src/component.js:2:36:
      2 │ import { setComponentManager } from '@glimmer/application';
        ╵                                     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Solution

Upgrade @glimmer/component to ^2.0.0


failed to load config from vite.config.mjs ... ember-scoped-css

Error

failed to load config from <repo>/vite.config.mjs
error when starting dev server:
file://<repo>/node_modules/.vite-temp/vite.config.mjs.timestamp-1766089944685-a3e3cc4ce187e8.mjs:5
import scopedCss from "file://<.pnpm>/<package path>/ember-scoped-css/src/build/public-exports/vite.js";

Solution

Read the docs at https://github.com/auditboard/ember-scoped-css to see how to configure vite


 ERR_PNPM_NO_MATCHING_VERSION ... for @glimmer/tracking@^2.0.0

Error

ERR_PNPM_NO_MATCHING_VERSION  No matching version found for @glimmer/tracking@^2.0.0
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Solution

Remove @glimmer/tracking from package.json. It is a virtual package provided by ember-source via the ember() vite plugin.


RegExp.escape is not a function (or other node related version issues)

Error

  ✘ [ERROR] <file-path>: RegExp.escape is not a function [plugin <plugin-name>]
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Solution

Use node 24, likely by updating either the package.json.volta config or the engines.node option (which many tools read).
If the environment is using proto, delete the .nvmrc or update it to also use noed 24.


Multiple exports with the same name "default"

Error

✘ [ERROR] Multiple exports with the same name "default"

    src/components/search-widget.gjs:99:7:
      99 │ export default setComponentTemplate(createTemplateFactory(
         ╵        ~~~~~~~

  The name "default" was originally exported here:

    src/components/search-widget.gjs:1:0:
      1 │ import Component from '@glimmer/component';
        ╵ ~~~~~~
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

or

<file-name> (330:0): Duplicate export "default"
file: <file-name>:330:0

328: }
329: 
330: <template>
     ^
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Solution

This happens because the agent did this:

export default class X extends Component { ... }

<template>
...
</template>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

This is an incorrect understanding of how gjs works, and the Agent should review the #ember-mcp-provided documentation again, or check this brief overview.

The <template>...</template> must go inside the component like this:

export default class X extends Component { 
  // ...

  <template>
  ...
  </template>
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

When having bare <template>...</template> in module space, that is known as the "implicit default form", as described in RFC #779
