fix: track() returns the value type for a ReadonlySignal - #9340
ReadonlySignal<T> was a bare { readonly value: T }, so it did not match Signal in Tracker and track(readonlySignal) was typed as the signal. It is now an alias of Readonly<Signal<T>>, which is what its @deprecated tag already recommends.
I did not widen Tracker instead: track(useStore({ value: 1 })) would then be typed as number, while at runtime it returns the store. The type test covers that case too.
Behavior change: the type is stricter. A plain { value: x } object no longer assigns to ReadonlySignal, and it can no longer be declaration-merged because it is a type.
The first commit is an independent guidance note: pnpm tsc.check excludes packages/qwik/src, so it does not prove type tests there.
Verification
tsc -p packages/qwik/tsconfig.json reproduced the error from the issue before the fix and is clean after it
pnpm tsc.check is clean
pnpm vitest run on use-task.unit, core-types.unit and packages/eslint-plugin-qwik: 94 passed
Full test.unit and e2e suites were not run locally (types only)
The bare { readonly value: T } interface did not match Signal in Tracker, so track() returned the signal type instead of its value. Widening Tracker instead would mistype stores with a value prop.

Walkthrough
ReadonlySignal<T> now aliases Readonly<Signal<T>>. Type tests check that track() returns the value type for readonly signals. API documentation and migration guidance describe the updated alias.
Changes: ReadonlySignal Type Alignment
Layer / File(s)
Summary
ReadonlySignal alias and type tests packages/qwik/src/core/reactive-primitives/signal.public.ts, packages/qwik/src/core/use/use-task.unit.ts, packages/qwik/src/core/qwik.core.api.md, .changeset/track-readonly-signal.md, .ruler/skills/qwik-core-development/SKILL.md
ReadonlySignal<T> now aliases Readonly<Signal<T>>. Type tests check signal assignability and verify that track() returns the value type for a readonly signal. The API snapshot and changeset reflect the change. The development skill adds instructions for running these type checks.
API documentation and guidance packages/docs/src/routes/api/qwik/api.json, packages/docs/src/routes/api/qwik/index.mdx, packages/docs/src/routes/docs/upgrade/index.mdx, packages/qwik/src/cli/migrate-v2/codemods/core-types.ts, packages/eslint-plugin-qwik/src/validLexicalScope.ts
The API references and upgrade guide describe ReadonlySignal<T> as a deprecated alias for Readonly<Signal<T>>. Related comments update the migration description and the signal-type example.
This change makes the ReadonlySignal type stricter so that track() infers the value type. Downstream code that assigns plain { value } objects to ReadonlySignal, or augments the interface, will stop compiling. Because it is released as a patch, consumers could hit the break on a routine upgrade. Change the changeset to major before merging.
Security architecture risk: Low · up to ad928
The stricter public type can break consumers using plain value objects or declaration merging. Runtime tracking and signal identity checks are unchanged, and the review established no new security attack path.
Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The demonstrated propagation is to public type consumers and documentation. Downstream compilation compatibility can change, but the inspected comparison does not introduce a runtime path carrying attacker-controlled data to additional privileges or sensitive sinks. External-consumer exposure remains unenumerated.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — Tracking continues to identify signals through the existing Signal brand check rather than the presence of a value property. The lexical-scope checker already recognizes readonly Signal wrappers and recursively checks their value type; the PR changes only its explanatory comment.

Full details: Title check
Explanation
The title states the main change: track() now returns the value type for a ReadonlySignal. The changeset adds a patch note for this fix, and the signal.public.ts change makes ReadonlySignal an alias of Readonly<Signal<T>>. The PR objectives confirm the same goal, which is to make track(readonlySignal) infer the signal's value type. The title is short, specific, and in the conventional fix: format.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Issue #9339 requires that track(readonlySignal) is typed as the signal value, or that ReadonlySignal is removed. The PR takes the first option. At head, signal.public.ts defines type ReadonlySignal<T> = Readonly<Signal<T>>. The Tracker object overload in use-task.ts is T extends Signal<infer U> ? U : T. Readonly<> only adds readonly modifiers, which do not affect assignability, so Readonly<Signal<number>> matches Signal<infer U> with U = number. The reproduction case therefore types track(count) as number. The runtime behavior is unchanged and already returned the value. use-task.unit.ts adds expectTypeOf(track(readonlySig)).toEqualTypeOf<number>(). It also keeps expectTypeOf(track(valueStore)).toEqualTypeOf(valueStore) for useStore({ value: 1 }). That check shows that plain objects with a value property are still typed as the store. Limit: the type assertions are checked only by a type-check of packages/qwik/tsconfig.json. The PR states that pnpm tsc.check excludes packages/qwik/src. The author reports a clean type-check, but this review did not re-run it.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
All changed files relate to the ReadonlySignal type change or to its verification. Runtime code is not changed. signal.public.ts changes the declaration. qwik.core.api.md, docs/api/qwik/api.json, docs/api/qwik/index.mdx, and docs/routes/docs/upgrade/index.mdx update the public API reference and upgrade notes to match the new alias. core-types.ts changes only a comment on replaceReadonlySignal. validLexicalScope.ts changes only a doc example from ReadonlySignal to ComputedSignal. use-task.unit.ts adds the type tests for the fix. The changeset is a patch note for the same fix. .ruler/skills/qwik-core-development/SKILL.md adds guidance that pnpm tsc.check excludes packages/qwik/src and gives the tsc --noEmit -p packages/qwik/tsconfig.json command. The PR description gives the same reason for that guidance. The guidance is a development process note with no runtime effect. It is not required by #9339, but it connects directly to the type-test verification in this PR.
