Giving up. You can try again by clicking Run. You may need to fix the [interpreter] definition in the .replit file first.

I forgot to mention that the shell is broken as well, and gives this error:

Seems like you might have accidentally added an invalid package, could you share the contents of your replit.nix file and/or your Repl link?

As Firepup said, it’s hard to help if you don’t show us the contents of the replit.nix file. But reading the error, if what you (or your friend) did was upgrade from Nix channel 22_11 to 23_05, you probably forgot to remove pkgs.replitPackages.jest from your replit.nix file. You’re getting the error because replitPackages doesn’t exist in this newer channel, as Replit is moving to Nix modules.

My replit.nix file does contain pkgs.replitPackages.jest:

{pkgs}:{
	deps = [
		pkgs.killall
                pkgs.nodejs-16_x
		pkgs.nodejs-18_x
                pkgs.nodePackages.typescript-language-server
                pkgs.yarn
                pkgs.replitPackages.jest
	];
}

And removing the pkgs.replitPackages.jest file solved the error. Thanks @Firepup650 and @LuisAFK !
