Walkthrough
The router now coordinates loader redirects with navigation preparation and the resulting loader value. Core async signals now distinguish unavailable values from errors, track synchronous computation settlement, and normalize thrown values. New route-loader and reactive-signal tests cover these cases.
Navigation attempts return typed outcomes and track preparation promises. Route-loader goto returns a promise that resolves after loader requests are prepared.
Redirecting loader requests await navigation preparation before reading the signal value. Cleanup leaves requests with a pending redirect un-aborted.

The test route adds redirect cases and navigation controls. End-to-end tests cover pending reads, prior values, blocked and superseded navigation, and rejected preparation.
Async signal read and settlement behavior

Summary
Pending reads and subscriptions packages/qwik/src/core/reactive-primitives/types.ts, packages/qwik/src/core/reactive-primitives/impl/signal-impl.ts, packages/qwik/src/core/reactive-primitives/impl/computed-signal-impl.ts, packages/qwik/src/core/client/dom-container.ts, packages/qwik/src/core/reactive-primitives/impl/async-signal.unit.tsx, packages/qwik/src/core/tests/async-not-ready.spec.tsx
Reads without a value throw NOT_READY while preserving subscriptions. The container skips error handling for this sentinel. Tests cover canceled reads and reruns.
Computation settlement and error handling packages/qwik/src/core/reactive-primitives/impl/computed-signal-impl.ts, packages/qwik/src/core/reactive-primitives/impl/async-signal.unit.tsx, packages/qwik/src/core/reactive-primitives/impl/async-computed.unit.tsx, .changeset/*, e2e/qwik-e2e/tests/qwikrouter/ssg-snapshot.e2e.ts
Computed jobs track settlement, and non-Error failures are converted to boundary errors. Tests cover synchronous completion and thrown values. Changesets record core patches, and the Brotli budget increases.
QwikDev/qwik#9237 — The changes make reads of canceled async values throw NOT_READY and add tests for reruns after a value becomes available. The PR does not fully verify the separate component re-render path noted in the issue.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to 77c5b
A redirect can show a missing-data error instead of waiting for the destination loader’s first value. Fix that pending-read path before merging.
Security architecture risk: Low · up to 77c5b
The changes affect shared navigation and reactive-state behavior, but the reviewed paths preserve request identity checks and ordinary error handling. No introduced security vulnerability was established. Application-specific error displays and interruption behavior remain incompletely verified.
Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The relevant propagation scope is applications using the changed router and signal primitives. The inspected fixture accepts URL and cookie inputs to exercise redirects, but returns synthetic list data; it does not demonstrate access to tenant data, credentials, or privileged infrastructure.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — Container error handling suppresses only the exact NOT_READY sentinel. Other values continue through the existing error-store, boundary, or logging paths. Navigation guards and the cross-origin branch also remain in the navigation flow.
Resilience and Maintainability Implications
observed — Redirect requests are exempted from ordinary navigation abort while preparation is pending; settled continuations clear their redirect marker conditionally. External outcomes do not resolve preparation, so recovery if an attempted browser navigation does not unload remains unverified. This is a lifecycle limitation, not an established security attack.

Explanation
The title "fix(router): pending loader reads during redirects" names the main change. The objectives say the PR keeps initial routeLoader$ reads pending while a redirected navigation runs, instead of briefly yielding undefined. The changes to qwik-router-component.tsx, route-loaders.ts, and the async-signal files support this. The title is specific and does not use vague terms. It omits the supporting signal and async-computed changes, which is acceptable.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Issue #9240 requires a first client-side loader read to stay pending across a redirect, then expose the redirected loader value without an intermediate undefined. route-loaders.ts records the redirect before starting navigation, awaits loader-request preparation, and reads the stored value. The NOT_READY handling keeps cancelled reads subscribed without treating them as errors. The E2E tests cover pending and ready states, prior values including undefined, blocked and superseded navigation, and loader reuse.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The redirect handling and cancelled-read support serve #9240. The PR also includes a general fix for synchronous async-signal completion and a general fix for falsy non-Error computed failures, with separate changesets and unit tests (async-signal-sync-completion.md, normalize-computed-errors.md). The redirect path returns a promise, and #9240 does not require either general behavior change. These changes are not connected to the linked issue's redirect-pending requirement.
Resolution
Remove the synchronous-completion and falsy-error normalization changes, tests, and changesets from this PR, or move them to separate PRs. Keep the changes that implement redirect-pending behavior and cancelled-read handling.

Do not convert the pending redirect read into an error.
RouteLoaderState stores ComputedSignal instances. When no previous value exists, ComputedSignalImpl initializes $untrackedValue$ to NEEDS_COMPUTATION. If the redirected loader is still pending, untrackedValue throws the pending promise. This catch catches that promise and replaces it with Error('Route loader redirect completed without data.').
The read therefore fails instead of remaining pending until the redirected loader produces a value. Preserve the pending promise and retain a previous value when one exists.

Reading an async signal whose computation was cancelled before it produced a
value returned NEEDS_COMPUTATION, so a fast navigation rendered loaders
without their data. Such a read now throws a NOT_READY marker: the reader
stays subscribed and reruns once a value arrives, and status reads report no
error and no pending work.
