Error message

Workspace relink did not repair all server package links: ${remainingMismatches.map((item) => item.packageName).join(", ")}

What it means

ensureServerWorkspaceLinksCurrent relinked mismatched server package symlinks in node_modules, but a re-scan still found packages pointing at the wrong path. The self-check after repair failed, naming the remaining mismatched package names.
