I can't imagine why, but it looks like this only happens with Node 12.x (current LTS). Downgrading to 10.x causes it to emit the correct { [k: string]: any } instead of [ 'object' ].<string, any>.

That said, as far as I can tell, replacing all instances of [ 'object' ]. with Record and [ 'Array' ]. with Array seems to be an effective workaround.

It looks like this is caused by jsdoc/jsdoc#1643; the behavior of util.format changed in Node 12. This is fixed in jsdoc 3.6.1, so upgrading to that or later fixes protobufjs.
