Research direction

Start by reproducing the duplicate-path error in the dev server after adding two files that match the same path, then trace how that error is retained and cleared. Done when removing the duplicate clears the error without requiring a dev-server restart.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently when you add two files that match the same path, the only way to get rid of the error is to restart the dev server.
