How to remove the need of non-nullish operator in this code?

  if (
      !guild.members
        .me!.permissionsIn(interaction.channel as GuildChannelResolvable)
        .has('CreatePublicThreads')
    ) {
      return interaction.editReply(...);
    }

I am using interaction.inCachedGuild() typeguard also but still this issue happens

guild.members.me is possibly null here, that's the issue

You're not doing anything with it in the first place... of course it won't be helpful...
