no module entry script in ${dashboardPath} — run: ${BUILD_CO

Error message

no module entry script in ${dashboardPath} — run: ${BUILD_COMMANDS.dashboard}

What it means

deferredDashboardAppDependencies locates the dashboard's `<script type="module" src=...>` entry in dashboard.html to inspect its loader for the deferred App chunk import. If no module entry script tag (or an src outside assets/) is found, it throws with a hint to run the dashboard build. This keeps the preload-dependency measurement anchored to a real production entry chunk.

Solutions

1. Run BUILD_COMMANDS.dashboard to regenerate a production dashboard.html with a hashed module entry
2. Inspect the <script type="module"> tag in dist/dashboard.html and restore it if the template was edited
3. Ensure the entry src resolves under assets/ (check Vite base/assetsDir) so assetFileNameFromUrl can extract the file name
4. If the HTML shape legitimately changed, update the regex in deferredDashboardAppDependencies

Example fix

<!-- before: template missing module entry -->
<!-- no script tag -->
<!-- after -->
<script type="module" src="/assets/index-abc123.js"></script>

const html = readFileSync(join(distDir, 'dashboard.html'), 'utf8');
if (!/<script\b[^>]*type=["']module["'][^>]*src=["'][^"']+\.js["']/i.test(html)) throw new Error('dashboard.html has no module entry script — run the production build');

const hasModuleEntry = (html) => /<script\b[^>]*\btype=["']module["'][^>]*\bsrc=["'][^"']+\.js["']/i.test(html);

try {
  const deps = deferredDashboardAppDependencies(distDir);
} catch (e) {
  if (e.message.includes('no module entry script')) {
    console.error('Production dashboard build missing module entry; rebuild.');
    process.exitCode = 1;
  } else throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling deferredDashboardAppDependencies on dashboard.html lacking a `<script type="module" src=".../assets/*.js">` tag — dev-mode HTML (no hashed module script), HTML where the module script lost its type="module" attribute, or the src URL not under /assets/ so assetFileNameFromUrl returns null.

Common situations: Budget check run before the production build; Vite config switched to a legacy/no-module output; someone hand-edited index.html template and removed or altered the module script tag; regex mismatch after changing attribute order/quotes in the template.
