@hcengineering/* 0.7.423 still missing TypeScript declarations despite PR #10768

Problem

Published tarballs of @hcengineering/* packages at version 0.7.423 (published 2026-05-10) still ship without types/*.d.ts files, despite PR #10768 having been merged on 2026-04-15.

Evidence

$ npm pack @hcengineering/[email protected]
$ tar -tzf hcengineering-core-0.7.423.tgz | grep -c "\.d\.ts$"
0   # zero .d.ts files

$ npm pack @hcengineering/[email protected]
$ tar -tzf hcengineering-core-0.7.19.tgz | grep -c "\.d\.ts$"
20+ # types/ directory present in older release

package.json in 0.7.423 still declares "types": "types/index.d.ts", but the file is not in the tarball, so TypeScript consumers get TS7016: Could not find a declaration file for module '@hcengineering/core'.

Context

• PR #10768 added the Emit TypeScript declarations step (rush validate) to publish-npm.yml and was merged into develop (commit cc9c8b87).
• The gitHead of 0.7.423 is a00c0135 (commit "Bump version" on 2026-05-10), which is 426 commits ahead of the PR #10768 merge commit — so the fix is in the publishing source tree.
• The current publish-npm.yml on develop still has the Emit TypeScript declarations step. So either:
  • rush validate is silently failing inside that step (no error surfaced); or
  • safe-publish.js is invoking npm publish from a stage where types/ has been cleaned/not yet generated; or
  • The 0.7.423 publish was kicked off through a different path that bypasses the workflow.

Affected packages (all 0.7.411+, sampled):

• @hcengineering/core
• @hcengineering/account-client
• @hcengineering/api-client
• @hcengineering/tracker
• @hcengineering/task
• @hcengineering/card
• @hcengineering/contact
• @hcengineering/calendar
• @hcengineering/text, @hcengineering/text-markdown
• (probably all @hcengineering/* packages published from this monorepo)

Impact

Downstream TypeScript consumers (Huly MCP servers, custom integrations, the official huly-examples repo) cannot consume any @hcengineering/* version newer than 0.7.382 without manually shimming declarations. This blocks adoption of cards processes, associations, automation, user statuses, time service, and every other feature added since 0.7.382.

Suggested fix

1. Trigger the publish-npm.yml workflow again and verify Emit TypeScript declarations actually produces types/index.d.ts for at least @hcengineering/core before safe-publish.js runs.
2. If a silent failure is suspected, add ls -la <package>/types/index.d.ts || (echo "::error::types/ missing" && exit 1) between validate and publish to fail loudly.
3. Re-publish as 0.7.424 with declarations intact.

Happy to verify the result by re-installing in our consumer project once a new version is up.
