Recurring Deployment Error

I’m having a heck of a time getting a successful deployment. I’ve asked the code assistant to describe the issue for human support.

Description of Issue:

My Vite + React + TypeScript application consistently fails to deploy from AI Studio to Google Cloud Run. Every deployment attempt fails with a container timeout error, and all attempts by the automated support agent to fix this have failed.

I have identified a complex, two-part root cause that the automated systems are incapable of resolving:

  1. AI Studio Environmental Conflict: The AI Studio environment is automatically and repeatedly injecting a into my index.html file. This script conflicts with my project’s Vite build process and specifies an incorrect version of React (v19), while my project uses v18. This script reappears within seconds if manually deleted, making simple removal impossible.

  2. Brittle Build Process: My package.json build command is tsc && vite build. My tsconfig.json is configured with strict rules like noUnusedLocals. This means that any minor, non-blocking TypeScript issue (like an unused variable) causes the initial tsc command to fail, which halts the entire build process.

The Failure Loop:

The automated support agent has been stuck in a loop because of these two issues. It correctly identified that a Vite plugin could remove the importmap during the build. However, this solution has consistently failed because the vite build command (which runs the plugin) is never executed due to the tsc command failing first on various minor TypeScript errors. The agent’s attempts to fix these tsc errors one by one is an ineffective “whack-a-mole” strategy that does not address the core architectural problem.

Request:

I need an expert to provide a reliable and resilient build and deployment strategy that can handle the AI Studio environmental constraints. The current tsc && vite build process is too brittle. Please advise on the correct architectural solution to ensure a successful deployment.
