namespace enum typedef: %w

Error message

namespace enum typedef: %w

What it means

Final step of enum namespacing: Dagger replaces the enum typedef in the enclosing TypeDef by selecting __withEnumTypeDef with the updated enum's ID. A failing Select is wrapped as 'namespace enum typedef', meaning the dependency enum could not be re-embedded into the typedef after namespacing.

Solutions

1. Inspect the wrapped inner error for the underlying dagql failure.
2. Update the Dagger engine and CLI and regenerate codegen (dagger develop).
3. Verify the dependency module is loadable and its published version matches what is referenced.
4. Retry after transient errors; escalate with a repro if persistent.

_, err := moduleSource.AsModule().GeneratedCode().Directory('.').Entries(ctx)
if err != nil {
    if strings.Contains(err.Error(), 'namespace enum typedef') { /* regenerate and retry */ }
    return err
}

When it happens

Trigger: updatedEnumID was produced successfully, but dag.Select(ctx, updated, &updated, Field: __withEnumTypeDef) fails (dagql resolver error on the internal field, engine failure, context cancellation).

Common situations: Any cross-module enum usage during codegen or function serving where the internal __withEnumTypeDef mutation fails; engine bugs or version skew; timeouts while loading deep dependency graphs.
