The --force option sounds non-ideal. What should be done to fix the upstream dependency conflict? I do know that AWS CDK is very strict when it comes to matching package versions between the core and construct libs.

// project generated via $ cdk init app --language typescript
  "devDependencies": {
    "@aws-cdk/assert": "1.95.0",
    "@types/jest": "^26.0.10",
    "@types/node": "10.17.27",
    "aws-cdk": "1.95.0",
    "jest": "^26.4.2",
    "ts-jest": "^26.2.0",
    "ts-node": "^9.0.0",
    "typescript": "~3.9.7"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "@aws-cdk/core": "1.95.0",
    "source-map-support": "^0.5.16"
  }

From comments, installing the dependency with same version as of aws-cdk and @aws-cdk/core solved the issue.

npm install @aws-cdk/[email protected]
