Universal Editor: Conditional fields now break editor (previously working schema crashes)

I'm running into an issue with Adobe Universal Editor where a schema that used to work now causes the editor to freeze and crash.

I haven’t changed the code in the past 2–3 weeks, and this schema was functioning correctly before. The issue appears when I open the component’s property panel — the editor freezes, then crashes.

 

Here’s the component-models.json I’m using:

 

 
{ "id": "link", "fields": [ { "component": "container", "valueType": "string", "label": "Content", "name": "content", "collapsible": false, "fields": [ { "component": "text", "valueType": "string", "name": "label", "label": "Label" }, { "component": "text", "valueType": "string", "name": "href", "label": "URL" }, { "component": "boolean", "valueType": "boolean", "name": "openInNewTab", "label": "Open link in New Tab" } ] }, { "component": "container", "valueType": "string", "label": "Base Config", "name": "baseConfig", "collapsible": true, "fields": [ { "component": "select", "label": "Type", "name": "type", "valueType": "string", "options": [ { "name": "Link", "value": "link" }, { "name": "Button", "value": "button" } ] }, { "component": "container", "label": "Link configuration", "name": "link-config", "valueType": "string", "condition": { "===": [{ "var": "type" }, "link"] }, "fields": [ { "component": "select", "label": "Link variant", "name": "link-variant", "valueType": "string", "value": "default", "options": [ { "name": "Default", "value": "default" }, { "name": "Quiet", "value": "quiet" } ] } ] }, { "component": "container", "label": "Button configuration", "name": "button-config", "valueType": "string", "condition": { "===": [{ "var": "type" }, "button"] }, "fields": [ { "component": "select", "label": "Button Type", "name": "button-type", "valueType": "string", "value": "primary", "options": [ { "name": "Default", "value": "default" }, { "name": "Danger", "value": "danger" }, { "name": "Ghost", "value": "ghost" }, { "name": "Secondary", "value": "secondary" }, { "name": "Tertiary", "value": "tertiary" } ] }, { "component": "boolean", "valueType": "boolean", "value": false, "name": "fullWidth", "label": "Full Width", "description": "Stretch the button to fill the available horizontal space." } ] } ] } ] }

I’ve also tried examples from the official documentation, and those now fail too if they include a conditional field.

Has there been a recent change to validation rules or schema handling that would cause this?
Any insights or updated guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
