Discord.js not registering new slash commands because application names must be unique

Discord.js won't register my commands again, despite the fact they don't exist. I've verified that the commands don't exist by running:

rest.get(Routes.applicationCommands(clientId))
    .then(data => console.log(data));

with the only response being []

The error I get is this:

DiscordAPIError[50035]: Invalid Form Body
  method: 'PUT',
  url: 'https://discord.com/api/v9/applications/985234455717363762/commands',
  requestBody: {
    files: undefined,
    json: [
      [Object], [Object],
      [Object], [Object],
      [Object], [Object],
      [Object], [Object]
    ]
  }
}

The code (deploy-commands.js) looks like this:

const fs = require('node:fs');
const path = require('node:path');
const { REST } = require('@discordjs/rest');
const { Routes } = require('discord-api-types/v9');
const { clientId, token } = require('./config.json');

const commands = [];
const commandsPath = path.join(__dirname, 'commands');
const commandFiles = fs.readdirSync(commandsPath).filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));

for (const file of commandFiles) {
    const filePath = path.join(commandsPath, file);
    const command = require(filePath);
    commands.push(command.data.toJSON());
}

const rest = new REST({ version: '9' }).setToken(token);

rest.put(Routes.applicationCommands(clientId), { body: commands })
    .then(() => console.log('Successfully registered application commands.'))
    .catch(console.error);

With this filetree:

discord-bot/
|-- Commands/
    |-- avatar.js
    |-- beep.js
    |-- kick.js
    |-- options-info.js
    |-- ping.js
    |-- prune.js
    |-- server.js
    |-- user-info.js
|-- node_modules
|-- config.json
|-- deploy-commands.js
|-- index.js
|-- package-lock.json
|-- package.json

HELP!

This error comes if you have 2 application commands with the same name, double check your command names and make sure every command has a unique name.
