Add braces to the seen guard.
Use braces around this if body.
Proposed fix
- if (seen.has(page.path)) return
+ if (seen.has(page.path)) {
+ return
+ }As per coding guidelines, “Always use curly braces for if, else, loops, and similar control statements. Never write one-line bodies like if (foo) x = 1.”

Remove the any assertion from the test fixture.
as any disables checking of the configuration passed to prerender. Return a typed TanStackStartOutputConfig fixture and use typed overrides so configuration drift fails during type checking.
As per coding guidelines, “Use TypeScript strict mode with extensive type safety.”

The prerenderer never retried a failed page and could not fail the build when a page kept failing: - retryCount had no effect. The retry called addCrawlPageTask, which returns early because the path is already in the `seen` set, so the page was never re-crawled. Delete the path from `seen` before re-queuing the retry. - failOnError could not fail the build. The queued task threw into an un-awaited promise, so the rejection was orphaned while queue.start() resolved via onSettled and the build exited 0. Collect page errors and rethrow after the queue settles. Also guard the crawl-discovery push so a retried crawled page is not recorded twice in the page list (which feeds sitemap generation). Fixes TanStack#8120

Vitest expect resolves toThrow matcher requires received value to be a function
💡 Result:
The error stating that the "received value must be a function" occurs when using the toThrow matcher because Vitest (and Jest) needs to wrap the execution of your code in a controlled environment to catch the error [1][2]. If you call a function directly inside expect—for example, expect(myFunction).toThrow—the function executes immediately, throws the error before Vitest can intercept it, and causes the test to crash with an unhandled exception [2]. To fix this, you must wrap your code in an anonymous function (a thunk) so that Vitest can call it and catch the error internally [3][2]: // Correct approach for synchronous functions expect( => myFunction).toThrow; For asynchronous functions or promises, the approach is different: 1. Do not use toThrow directly with expect. 2. Use the.rejects helper instead, which is designed to wait for a promise to reject [1][4]. // Correct approach for asynchronous functions await expect(myAsyncFunction).rejects.toThrow; If you are using a newer version of Vitest that supports it, you can also pass a function that returns a promise to.rejects (or.resolves, depending on your use case) [5]: // Correct approach for async function wrapper await expect( => myAsyncFunction).rejects.toThrow;

Use a resolution matcher for successful calls.
prerender resolves to undefined on both successful paths, so .resolves.not.toThrow() passes a non-function to toThrow and fails. Replace both assertions with resolves.toBeUndefined().

🎯 Changes
Fixes the two bugs reported in #8120 in the Start prerenderer (
packages/start-plugin-core/src/prerender.ts), where a page whose loader throws is announced for a retry that never happens and the build still exits0with the page missing from the output.1.
retryCountnever retried. On failure the retry calledaddCrawlPageTask(page), but that function returns early whenseen.has(page.path)istrue, and the path was added toseenon the first attempt. The retry therefore did nothing. The path is now deleted fromseenbefore re-queuing so the page is actually re-crawled.2.
failOnErrorcould not fail the build. The queued task'sthrowrejected the promise returned byqueue.add(...), which is never awaited, so the rejection was orphaned.Queue.start()resolves via itsonSettledcallback regardless of task failures, soawait queue.start()never saw the error and the build exited0. Page failures are now collected and rethrown after the queue settles: a single failure is rethrown as-is (preserving the original error and itscause), and multiple failures are wrapped in anAggregateError.While fixing (1), the crawl-discovery push for
fromCrawlpages is guarded so that retrying a crawled page does not record it twice instartConfig.pages, since that list feeds sitemap generation.Testing
Added
tests/prerender-retry.test.tscovering:retryCountretries a failing page until it succeeds (asserts the attempt count isretryCount + 1).failOnErrorenabled rejects the build.failOnError: falsedoes not fail the build.The retry and
failOnErrorassertions fail against the current code and pass with this change, matching the reproducer's described symptoms (one attempt instead of three, and a resolved build instead of a non-zero exit).Verified locally:
pnpm nx run @tanstack/start-plugin-core:test:unit(510 tests pass),pnpm nx run @tanstack/start-plugin-core:test:types(TypeScript 5.6 through 7.0), andeslint ./srcall pass.✅ Checklist
