As part of #358, I removed the allowJs setting from the tsconfig.json. I didn't know why we needed allowJs and everything seemed to still work smoothly.
However, when trying to build the extension from a completely fresh git checkout, I realized that the protos.js file was missing from the out directory. With allowJs: false the src/protos/protos.js file was no longer copied to the out directory. This only worked locally for me, because the current build is not hermetic.
