Describe the bug

I am following the template tutorial of Gen2 for nextjs page router . When trying to add the environment variables for a new function, the CDK deployment failed when running "npm run build":

the error message is
Type error: Cannot find module '$amplify/env/say-hello' or its corresponding type declarations.

I do have my amplify/tsconfig.json file configured (which is generated by the npx amplify create command):

@/amplify/tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es2022",
    "module": "es2022",
    "moduleResolution": "bundler",
    "resolveJsonModule": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true,
    "strict": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "paths": {
      "$amplify/*": [
        "../.amplify/generated/*"
      ]
    }
  }
}

@/tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "lib": ["dom", "dom.iterable", "esnext"],
    "allowJs": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "strict": true,
    "noEmit": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "module": "esnext",
    "moduleResolution": "bundler",
    "resolveJsonModule": true,
    "isolatedModules": true,
    "jsx": "preserve",
    "incremental": true,
    "paths": {
      "@/*": ["./*"]
    }
  },
  "include": ["next-env.d.ts", "**/*.ts", "**/*.tsx"],
  "exclude": ["node_modules"]
}

here is the file structure:

Expected behavior

expect the deploy to success.

Are there any special configuration for typescript? It looks like a compiling problem.

Reproduction steps

1. use amplify next-pages template
2. add a new function called say-hello
3. add a environment called NAME:

import { defineFunction } from "@aws-amplify/backend";

export const sayHello = defineFunction({
  // optionally specify a name for the Function (defaults to directory name)
  name: "say-hello",
  // optionally specify a path to your handler (defaults to "./handler.ts")
  entry: "./handler.ts",
  environment: {
    NAME: "World",
  },
});

4. git push to trigger the deployment
