You have a synthetic import to solid-js/jsx-runtime here. It's an ESM file but you are importing it from a CJS one. TS crashes when trying to raise 1479 diagnostic:

The_current_file_is_a_CommonJS_module_whose_imports_will_produce_require_calls_however_the_reference_1479", `The current file is a CommonJS module whose imports will produce 'require' calls; however, the referenced file is an ECMAScript module and cannot be imported with 'require'. Consider writing a dynamic 'import("{0}")' call instead.

The reason it crashes here is that you have composite: true. This option enables incremental compilation and that eagerly calls resolveExternalModuleName from getReferencedFiles.

Noticed this while trying to run tsc -w on a project with JSR as the package manager. It also seemed to be crashing with the JSX import source, "jsxImportSource": "@hono/hono/jsx".

@Offroaders123 The fix is included in 5.6.0 and above (or any nightly after Jun 24)
