Description of the problem
I've published a package called windstitch, so I'm creating this sandbox to demonstrate it. Unfortunately, CodeSandbox is failing to find its types. The package is working but has any types.

I'm using it in another project and the types work fine. Let me know if I have to set up anything extra so it works fine.

Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.

Research direction
Open the linked CodeSandbox and inspect the import at /src/App.tsx:19-29, then reproduce the missing-type error by hovering over the windstitch import. Trace how the sandbox resolves the package and its declarations; done means the package types are found instead of falling back to any and the error disappears.
