Error Installing Tailwind Recipe: Path Argument Undefined

[JuanQuiro]

What is the problem?

It seems that when I attempt to install the Tailwind recipe, the process gets stuck on the "generating file diff" message. After waiting for a moment, if I press Enter, I encounter the following error:

ERROR The "path" argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer or URL. Received undefined
