A screenshot that you have tested with "Try this API".

After upgrading my project to TypeScript 7, I get the following error when trying to compile:

$ tsc -b tsconfig.build.json
node_modules/@google-cloud/precise-date/build/src/index.d.ts:58:13 - error TS8023: JSDoc '@extends external' does not match the 'extends Date' clause.

58  * @extends external:Date
               ~~~~~~~~


Found 1 error in node_modules/@google-cloud/precise-date/build/src/index.d.ts:58

I don't use @google-cloud/precise-date directly, it's a dependency of @google-cloud/pubsub. I had hoped that v6.0.0 released today would fix it, so I added an entry in resolutions to force it to 6.0.0, but the issue remains.

I have created a minimal repro, keeping things as simple as possible to eliminate other possible causes.

Link to the code that reproduces this issue. A link to a public Github Repository or gist with a minimal reproduction.

Should compile without error

A clear and concise description WHY you expect this behavior, i.e., was it a recent change, there is documentation that points to this behavior, etc. **

Because it should work with TypeScript 7
