Vitest does not work when running from any CLI (Cannot find module @rollup)

[Dimidrie]

Describe the bug

We are using Vitest in our project as a npm script. When running from Visual Studio Code, the tests run correctly. However, when we are trying to run the npm command that executes Vitest from a CLI outside of Visual Studio Code (for example, cmd or in a Jenkins pipeline), we get the following error:

Error: Cannot find module @rollup/rollup-win32-x64-msvc. npm has a bug related to optional dependencies (https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/4828). Please try npm i again after removing both package-lock.json and node_modules directory.

Reproduction

In VS Code (works):

1. Open a new terminal
2. Run command: npm run test (which runs vitest --run --no-isolate --no-file-parallelism)
3. Vitest works

In any other CLI (doesn't work):

1. Open CMD in the same directory as in VS Code
2. Run command: npm run test
3. Gives the error specified above (cannot find module @rollup)

I'm also suffering the same issue, in Gitlab pipeline on image node:20.14.0.

Solved my issue by adding to package.json

`"optionalDependencies": {
    "@rollup/rollup-linux-x64-gnu": "^4.18.0"
  },
