Are there any compiler flags I can check to influence the Kotlin compiler to generate Java’s sealed for Kotlin’s `sealed`… when I decompile the code it doesn’t seem like that is what is happening by default?

I doubt it will work, but you could try setting the JVM target to 17 (https://kotlinlang.org/docs/compiler-reference.html#jvm-target-version).

why doubt? that's exactly how it works. https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/blob/146f0f4904cdd52bf173959aad4889845d4d1b96/compiler/ir/backend.jvm/src/org/jetbrains/kotlin/backend/jvm/codegen/ClassCodegen.kt#L137

Oh this is awesome… this is how I hope it worked but I didn’t know which flag or where to check so really appreciate both answers
