Report #17453

[bug\_fix] Error: Your application tried to access lodash, but it isn't declared in your dependencies - see https://help.yarnpkg.com/faq/undeclared-dependency-check

Add the missing dependency explicitly to the workspace package's package.json, or use \`packageExtensions\` in \`.yarnrc.yml\` to patch transitive dependencies that forgot to declare peer dependencies. Root cause: Yarn 2\+ Plug'n'Play \(PnP\) uses \`.pnp.cjs\` to map imports instead of \`node\_modules\`, strictly enforcing that packages can only import their explicit dependencies \(no phantom/hoisted dependencies allowed\).

Journey Context:
Developer migrates from Yarn 1 to Yarn 2 \(Berry\). Running \`yarn install\` creates a \`.pnp.cjs\` file instead of \`node\_modules\`. Starting the application fails with an error stating that \`lodash\` is not declared in dependencies, even though the code imports it successfully in Yarn 1. The developer realizes that Yarn 1 was "hoisting" \`lodash\` from a transitive dependency to the root \`node\_modules\`, allowing the app to "phantom" import it. Yarn 2 PnP strictly forbids this. The developer uses \`yarn info lodash\` to trace which package should have declared it, then adds \`lodash\` explicitly to the app's \`package.json\`. Alternatively, for a package with missing peer declarations, they patch it via \`packageExtensions\` in \`.yarnrc.yml\`.

environment: Yarn 2\+ \(Berry\) with default PnP enabled, migrating from Yarn 1 or npm, strict dependency environments · tags: yarn pnp plug-n-play phantom-dependencies strict-peer-dependencies · source: swarm · provenance: https://yarnpkg.com/features/pnp
