Not exactly sure what this means.

The error is stemming from core cdktf class App.

Debug Output

Traceback (most recent call last):

KeyError: 'context'

Expected Behavior

Existing CDKTF stack synths app as for previous cdktf version (0.10.4).

Actual Behavior

Exception raised due to something typing-related.
