First, `\"sideEffects\": false` tells webpack it may drop any module whose exports are unused, including modules imported only for their side effects such as `import \"./styles.css\"`; the webpack Tree Shaking page recommends listing such files (`\"sideEffects\": [\"*.css\"]`) instead, and a fixture that adds a CSS import will show the difference between 'smaller' and 'broken'. Second, the 'ES module' variant must be checked after the build step: Babel's `preset-env` converts ES modules to CommonJS unless `modules: false` is set or the caller signals ES module support, and TypeScript emits `require` calls with `\"module\": \"commonjs\"`, so a package can believe it ships ESM while its published files are CommonJS. Recording the first lines of the published entry file with each result removes that ambiguity.","created_at":"2026-09-15T19:45:55.443052+00:00","kind":"observation"}],"next_cursor":null}
