Repro Code

# Run eslint from command line in a pnpm repository
eslint any-file.ts --ext .ts

ESLint Config

module.exports = {
  parser: '@typescript-eslint/parser',
  parserOptions: {
    allowAutomaticSingleRunInference: true,
  },
};

tsconfig

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    // ...
  }
}

Expected Result

typescript-eslint detects single run mode successfully

Actual Result

typescript-eslint detects single run mode failed

Additional Info

I have found that the cause of the problem lies in the file path detection for enabling single run mode(source).

When running eslint from the command line in a pnpm repository, the eslint bin file path will end with node_modules/eslint/bin/eslint.js so the single run mode detection will fail:

I am currently working on a pnpm monorepo that contains more than 40 TypeScript projects. I would like to use allowAutomaticSingleRunInference to enhance performance and would be happy to submit a PR to fix it. I know that by setting the environment variable TSESTREE_SINGLE_RUN=true, I can force typescript-eslint to run in single run mode. However, relying solely on this approach may not be optimal as it can be easy to forget to set the environment variable when running eslint manually from the command line.
