Description
Multiple CI checks (check, startup-memory, checks-windows, checks (node, extensions)) are failing globally across all open PRs since the recent refactor(plugins) merge batch on 2026-03-15/16.
Failing checks
| Check |
Failure type |
check |
TypeScript type errors in npm-install plugin typecheck |
startup-memory |
Same typecheck cascade |
checks-windows (shards 2,3,5,6) |
Test failures from plugin restructure |
checks (node, extensions) |
Extension test failures |
Root cause
The check job fails with TypeScript compilation errors during the npm-install plugin typecheck step:
error TS2580: Cannot find name 'process'. Do you need to install type definitions for node?
error TS2304: Cannot find name 'global'.
error TS2307: Cannot find module '@tanstack/react-query' or its corresponding type declarations.
error TS2307: Cannot find module 'react' or its corresponding type declarations.
error TS2339: Property 'image' does not exist on type 'Block'.
error TS2322: Type '...' is not assignable to type 'GroupTemplate'.
These errors appear to stem from the large plugins architecture refactor merged on 2026-03-15:
ddd34b6cc3 refactor(plugins): simplify provider auth choice metadata3963408871 refactor: split plugin interactive dispatch adapters2580b81bd2 refactor: move channel capability diagnostics into plugins55cbfb6e6a refactor(plugins): move provider onboarding auth into pluginsad97c581e2 refactor: move channel messaging hooks into pluginsb580d142cd refactor(plugins): split lightweight channel setup modulesacae0b60c2 perf(plugins): lazy-load channel setup entrypoints
Cross-verification (not PR-specific)
Confirmed the same failures on multiple completely unrelated PRs:

Expected behavior
CI checks should pass for PRs that do not modify the affected plugin infrastructure.
