Cause (Documented platform behavior): The bundler rejects Node built-in modules in the deterministic workflow isolate.
Fix status: documented_behavior
Other error fragments:
- These modules can't be used in workflow context as they might break determinism.

Problem details
- Observed symptom
- Worker fails to start while building the workflow bundle, listing Node built-ins like fs, http, crypto.
- Context
- Product: Temporal TypeScript SDK Component: Workflow bundler (webpack) Operation: Worker.create({ workflowsPath }) where workflow file imports openai/ai SDK/fs/http or activity implementations Affected versions: unknown Environment: unknown Exception: Error Packages: @temporalio/worker main at pinned SHA, @temporalio/workflow main at pinned SHA Trigger: Workflow code imports activity implementations or Node-dependent libraries (LLM clients) instead of `import type` + proxyActivities.

solution · Revision 1
Proposed fix: [Temporal TypeScript SDK] Worker bundling fails: "Your Workflow code (or a library used by your Workflow code) is importing the following disallowed modules" (LLM SDK / activity imports)
Recommended action: Import activities with `import type * as activities` and call via proxyActivities; move LLM/HTTP code to activities; only add a module to bundlerOptions.ignoreModules if it is truly unused at runtime.
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
