Remove the 78-line Babel `inlineEnvVarsPlugin` and replace it with Vite's built-in `define` configuration for `process.env.FRESH_PUBLIC_*` and `import.meta.env.FRESH_PUBLIC_*` patterns. A lightweight regex-based Vite plugin handles `Deno.env.get()` calls which can't use `define`. Env file loading moved from `configResolved` to `config` so define entries are available during Vite's config resolution phase. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Instead of transforming CJS to ESM via a 960-line Babel plugin, let Vite handle CJS packages natively by: 1. Removing `meta.deno` from file:// resolved paths in deno.ts so Vite loads npm packages from disk instead of through @deno/loader 2. Removing `noExternal: true` so Vite externalizes npm packages in SSR dev mode (Node.js handles CJS natively via require()) 3. Removing `noDiscovery: true` so Vite's dependency optimizer can pre-bundle CJS packages for the client 4. Applying resolve.alias before Deno resolution so react -> preact/compat works even when packages are externalized Also converts local .cjs test fixtures to ESM since they no longer go through the CJS transform. Deletes ~1,800 lines. Eliminates the #1 source of npm compat bugs (#3619, #3653, #3505, #3478, #3449). Known regressions (2 tests): radix-ui and remote island need investigation for duplicate preact instances with externalization. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…l for radix-ui Apply Vite's resolve.alias config (e.g. react -> preact/compat) in deno.ts before calling @deno/loader, so the alias works even when packages are externalized in SSR mode. Also add noExternal for @radix-ui packages in the SSR environment since they depend on React compat aliases being applied. WIP: radix test still failing — alias format from Vite config needs further investigation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add lightweight CJS shim in deno.ts load hook for dev mode: wraps CJS files in node_modules with module/exports/require so Vite's SSR module runner can evaluate them. Only ~30 lines vs the old 960-line Babel CJS transform. Only runs in dev mode — build mode uses Rollup's @rollup/plugin-commonjs natively. - Restore ssr.noExternal: true so resolve.alias (react -> preact/compat) is applied consistently in SSR. Without it, Node.js require() bypasses aliases and loads real react@19.1.1. - Apply resolve.alias in deno.ts resolveId before @deno/loader runs, so aliased specifiers (react, react-dom) resolve to preact/compat through the Deno resolution pipeline. - Remove environment-level noExternal (was duplicated). Test results: 35/36 dev tests pass, 31/31 build tests pass. The 1 failing test (remote island) is pre-existing on main. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Instead of disabling the dependency optimizer entirely (noDiscovery), exclude only preact ecosystem packages from optimization. This allows CJS packages like mime-db to be pre-bundled for the browser while preventing duplicate preact instances when remote (JSR) islands resolve deps to /@fs/ paths. Also extends the CJS shim to work in both SSR (with createRequire) and client (with stub require) environments. All dev server tests pass (35/36 — 1 pre-existing flaky failure on remote island that also fails on main). All 31 build tests pass.

The dependency optimizer causes duplicate preact instances when remote (JSR) islands resolve deps to /@fs/ paths while the optimizer bundles to /.vite/deps/. Restore noDiscovery: true to prevent this. For CJS packages used in client-side islands (like mime-db), convert require() calls to ESM import statements via regex so browsers can load them. The SSR shim continues to use Node.js createRequire. All tests pass: 36/36 dev, 31/31 build, 15/15 patches. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The `links` field referenced a sibling directory that only exists on the author's machine, causing `deno install` to fail in CI. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
