workaround for ts-node in package.json script

1. many existing projects use package.json script with ts-node.
2. due to https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues/17176 deno can't run them.
"compile:typebox": "ts-node cases/typebox/index.ts cases/typebox/build",

have anyone found workaround to run this?
i've considered
// replace ts-node with run.sh in scripts
#!/bin/sh

case $JS_RUNNER in
    "deno") deno run -A $@ ;;
    "bun" ) bunx        $@ ;;
    *     ) npx ts-node $@ ;;
esac

but it complicates everything.

this is esp. problematic as existing node project still needs ts-node. if only there were a way to shim ts-node to 
deno
