Error calling install command for cypress/run

See original GitHub issue

I’m getting the following error in CircleCI for all my branches, without having made any changes to my CircleCI config:

Config Processing Error (Don’t rerun)

#!/bin/sh -eo pipefail
# Error calling workflow: 'build'
# Error calling job: 'cypress/run'
# Error calling command: 'install'
# Type error for argument build: expected type: steps, actual value: \"\" (type string)
#

# Don't rerun this job. Rerunning will have no effect.
false

I was using version 1.7.0 of the orb but upgraded it to 1.10.0; I’m still having the same problem. Here is my circle.yml config:

version: 2.1
orbs:
  cypress: cypress-io/cypress@1.10.0
executors:
  with-chrome:
    docker:
      - image: 'cypress/browsers:node10.16.0-chrome76'
workflows:
  build:
    jobs:
      - cypress/run:
          executor: with-chrome
          browser: chrome
          command: 'npm run lint && npm run test-ci'
          post-steps:
            - store_artifacts:
                path: coverage

Usually, the build passes, and I see all the following steps executed successfully: Screen Shot 2019-09-18 at 12 19 16 PM

But now I’m see this (described above): Screen Shot 2019-09-18 at 12 20 19 PM

Seems according to this issue and messages on GitChat that this was resolved on the CircleCI side
