💻 Code

class Variable<U, S extends string> {
  constructor(public s: S) { }
  u!: U;
}

function mkGeneric<U, S extends string>(s: S) {
  return new Variable<U, S>(s)
}

type ExactArgNames<GenericType, Constraint> = GenericType & {
  [K in keyof GenericType]: K extends keyof Constraint ? GenericType[K] : never
}

type AllowVariables<T> = Variable<T, any> | { [K in keyof T]: Variable<T[K], any> | T[K] }

type TestArgs = {
  someArg: number
}

type TestArgsWithVars = AllowVariables<TestArgs>

function takesGeneric<V extends AllowVariables<TestArgs>>(a: ExactArgNames<V, TestArgs>): void {
}

let v = takesGeneric({someArg: mkGeneric("x")});

🙁 Actual behavior

VVersion 5.7.2 of the compiler infers the variable type as Variable<uknown, "x"> and subsequently generates an error

🙂 Expected behavior

VVersion 5.6.3 of the compiler infers the variable type correctly as Variable<number, "x">
