why does deno compile read my other directories ?

If i run this on an empty directory with nothing but a main.ts,
deno compile main.ts
It tries to walk up the file tree and find other folders with node_modules/package.json ( not sure what its looking for )
And compilation never ends.

the contents of main.ts are just
import open from "jsr:@rdsq/open"
await open("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ");


However, if i have a package.json in the same directory, it compiles pretty quick and i get an executable which works.

it shows these warnings which shows paths from files that are way off my current working directory,
and a lot of the same warnings for different node projects in my filesystem is printed.
Warning Failed resolving symlink. Ignoring.
    Path: /home/div/.local/share/Trash/files/web1/node_modules/typescript
    Message: Reading symlink target '/home/div/.local/share/Trash/node_modules/.pnpm/typescript@5.7.2/node_modules/typescript': No such file or directory (os error 2)
