  "showScannedFiles": false,
  "showWrittenFiles": true,
  "metaConfig": {},
  "sigmaConfig": {},
  "oasConfig": {},
  "graphQLConfig": {}
}

your package.json has to include the source property like:

{
  "main": "dist/index.js",
  "source": "src/index.ts",
}

  "outputPath": "schema",
  "outputFilename": "tsmeta.output.json",
