The fix-imports.mjs script blindly appended '.js' to every @/ alias
import, even when the source specifier already carried a .js
extension (e.g. '@/shared/config/index.js'). This produced
'index.js.js' in the emitted dist/, causing ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND
at startup.
This was latent: only triggered once digestScheduler.ts (which
uses @/shared/config/index.js with explicit extension) was built.
The user-reputation removal (2a8f6d9) was also blocked by this
bug — stale binary kept crashing with 'user_reputations' query
errors because it was never redeployed.
Fix: only append .js when the @/ specifier has no existing
extension. Applied to both gateway and backend scripts.
flake.nix only rewrote @/ aliases but left extensionless relative imports
(./router) in compiled dist/. node dist/index.js (how prod runs) cannot
resolve extensionless ESM specifiers -> ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND -> backend
crashlooped (444 restarts, port 4001 dead). Extract the fixer into a shared
scripts/fix-imports.mjs that appends .js to extensionless relative imports and
rewrites @/ aliases, and wire it into backend + discord-gateway build phases.
Verified: fresh tsc + fixer -> node dist/index.js boots; oRPC over /trpc
serves both HTTP POST and WebSocket (config/dashboard/voice/moderation/
media/chatbot/analysis) end-to-end against Postgres + Redis. next build
passes with the oRPC client + partysocket.
