vscode intellisense errors on the same type definition in some files, but not others

e.g. the following type:

const exampleType = type({
  email: "string.email",
});

const exampleType = type({
  email: "string.email",
});

In some files, this works fine. In others, in the exact same project, this causes the following error:

Type '"string.email"' is not assignable to type '"'string' must reference a module to be accessed using dot syntax "'.
The expected type comes from property 'email' which is declared here on type 'validateObjectLiteral<{ readonly email: "string.email"; }, {}, bindThis<{ readonly email: "string.email"; }>>'

Type '"string.email"' is not assignable to type '"'string' must reference a module to be accessed using dot syntax "'.
The expected type comes from property 'email' which is declared here on type 'validateObjectLiteral<{ readonly email: "string.email"; }, {}, bindThis<{ readonly email: "string.email"; }>>'

Any ideas for what might be going on?

Aha, I think I've figured ti out. This is something to do with sveltekit's implicit typing. In +server.ts or +page.ts modules, it appears that the type import resolves to:

<const def, r = Type<inferTypeRoot<def, $>, $>>(def: validateTypeRoot<def, $>): r;

<const def, r = Type<inferTypeRoot<def, $>, $>>(def: validateTypeRoot<def, $>): r;

in arktype/out/type.d.ts In files not prefixed with a +, it resolves to namespace type { ... in arktype/out/keywords/ark.d.ts. Any suggestions for how I fix this / force the type import to be correct? ah, I think it's an interaction with the svelte language server. Disabling the svelte language extension fixes the problem.

I suspect the file mangling done here: https://github.com/sveltejs/language-tools/blob/0655c67d25dfa9412f0aac8a1c48a7b3aaa28454/packages/svelte2tsx/src/helpers/sveltekit.ts#L133 - is causing issues

update, it's not related to the language server, but rather the svelte extension ts plugin.
