Typescript error while using Cypress.Command.add(): Property 'selector' does not exist on type 'JQuery<HTMLElement>'

[atarek12]

Current behavior

I am getting a Typescript error for those cases:

• Cypress.Command.add() with { prevSubject: true }

Cypress.Commands.add("newCommand", { prevSubject: true }, (element) => {});

In the above example, element is of type unknown but instead, it should be JQuery<HTMLElement>, this could be handled by passing the generics values like that:

Cypress.Commands.add<"newCommand","element">("newCommand", { prevSubject: true }, (element) => {});

But I think passing true to the prevSubject option, the element type should be JQuery<HTMLElement> by itself.

• Cypress.Command.add() with {prevSubject: "element" }

Cypress.Commands.add("newCommand", { prevSubject: "element" }, (element) => {
  element.selector
});

I am trying to access the selector property, but I got a typescript error that it does not exist on type JQuery<HTMLElement>

Desired behavior

No typescript error should be printed, as the selector property does exist in the element object.
