Generic arguments gets casted as "unknown" when used as function argument

Typescript version : 5.0.3 (But found on all versions I tested)

Search terms : generic type as function argument unknown

💻 Code

Here are the two main generics involved in my case :

type FormSchema<
  StoreKey extends string,
  StoreData extends Record<string, unknown>
> = {
  store: { key: StoreKey; value: () => unknown }[];
  fields: Array<{
    key: string;
    data: StoreData;
    dataWithoutArg: () => StoreData;
    dataWithArg: (params: StoreData) => StoreData;
  }>;
};

type InferSharedStoreData<Store extends { key: string; value: () => unknown }[]> = {
  [K in Store[number] as K["key"]]: Awaited<ReturnType<K["value"]>>;
}

And here's the actual function that casts these :

function buildSchema<
  TSchema extends FormSchema<StoreKey, StoreData>,
  StoreKey extends string,
  StoreData extends Record<string, unknown> = InferSharedStoreData<
    TSchema["store"]
  >
>(schema: TSchema) {
  return schema as TSchema
}

🙁 Actual behavior

The "params" argument of the "dataWithArg" sub-property of "fields" is being typed as InferSharedStoreData, which means the "store" property type of the schema passed as argument of buildSchema is unavailable in the context of the function argument.

the StoreData type is being properly inferred for every other property it's assigned to, except on the case where it is used as a function argument.

🙂 Expected behavior

The function argument "params" should be inferred as StoreData, which itself is InferSharedStoreData<schema['store']>. A complete example is set-up on the playground link above.

Beginne mit dem verknüpften TypeScript Playground und reproduziere das Verhalten rund um buildSchema, FormSchema und InferSharedStoreData. Verfolge, warum der Parametertyp von dataWithArg zu InferSharedStoreData wird; die Aufgabe ist abgeschlossen, wenn params als das aus dem Store des Schemas abgeleitete StoreData inferiert wird, während die anderen Eigenschaften weiterhin typgeprüft werden.
