[BUG] Plasmo build stops working after a few runs (on any project/starter templates/etc...)

Author: reedjonesCreated Nov 11, 2024Updated Mar 14, 2026

What happened?

Basically I can clone one of the starter repositories, and build a few times - after a few I consistently get this error. I've tried changing node versions, changing package managers, parcel versions, etc... not sure what the issue is? Or even if it is an issue with parcel, plasmo, pnpm, my setup, etc???
It's been driving me crazy... Any help much appreciated!

bash
pnpm create plasmo --with-env
pnpm dev
