src/commandRunner.ts:1:27 - error TS7016: Could not find a declaration file for module 'minimatch'. 'C:/command-server_fork/node_modules/.pnpm/[email protected]/node_modules/minimatch/minimatch.js' implicitly has an 'any' type.
  If the 'minimatch' package actually exposes this module, consider sending a pull request to amend 'https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/tree/master/types/minimatch'

Found 1 error in src/commandRunner.ts:1

 ELIFECYCLE  Command failed with exit code 2.

this is building from Windows.

NOTE: this is not blocking me because I don't need the code using minimatch.

this repo uses yarn, not pnpm. Try doing the install using yarn and see if you still have the same issue; seems fine on my machine
