Research direction
Reproduce the problem from File > export to Zip using the linked sandbox, then compare the extracted tree with the listed CodeSandbox structure, including App.js, App.scss, index.js, package.json, and public/index.html. Trace the export entry point from that menu and verify that the resulting archive preserves the sandbox files and layout without the extra wrapper files shown in the report.
