I encountered a strange issue while using a CLI that reads the capacitor.config.ts file. Every time the CLI reads the file, it throws a "ReferenceError: await is not defined" error. Interestingly, I faced a similar error with Vite in the past but cannot replicate it now.
import type {AppConfig} from '../../utils/app-config';
import {resolveAllConfigs} from '../../utils/app-config';
import type {CapacitorConfig} from '@capacitor/cli';
const appConfig: AppConfig = (await resolveAllConfigs({}));
export default ({} as CapacitorConfig);
[error] Parsing capacitor.config.ts failed.
ReferenceError: await is not defined
