astro@6.3.0

Minor Changes

#16366 d69f858 Thanks @matthewp! - Adds a new experimental.advancedRouting option that lets you take full control of Astro's request handling pipeline by creating a src/app.ts file in your project.

Today, Astro handles every incoming request through a fixed internal pipeline: trailing slash normalization, redirects, actions, middleware, page rendering, i18n, and so on. That pipeline works great for most sites, but as projects grow you often want to run your own logic between those steps — an auth check before rendering, a rate limiter before actions, custom logging around the whole stack. Advanced routing gives you that control.

When enabled, Astro looks for a src/app.ts file in your project. If it finds one, that file becomes the entrypoint for all server-rendered requests. You compose the pipeline yourself using the handlers Astro provides, and you can slot your own logic anywhere in the chain.

Enabling advanced routing
```
// astro.config.mjs
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';

export default defineConfig({
  experimental: {
    advancedRouting: true,
  },
});
```
Two ways to build your pipeline

Astro ships two entrypoints for advanced routing: astro/fetch and astro/hono.

astro/fetch is a low-level, framework-free API built on the Web Fetch standard. You create a FetchState from the incoming request, then call handler functions in sequence. Each handler takes the state, does its work, and returns a Response (or undefined to pass through). This is the core primitive that everything else is built on:
```
// src/app.ts
import {
  FetchState,
  trailingSlash,
  redirects,
  actions,
  middleware,
  pages,
  i18n,
} from 'astro/fetch';

export default {
  async fetch(request: Request) {
    const state = new FetchState(request);

    // Early exits — these return a Response only when they apply.
    const slash = trailingSlash(state);
    if (slash) return slash;

    const redirect = redirects(state);
    if (redirect) return redirect;

    const action = await actions(state);
    if (action) return action;

    // Middleware wraps page rendering; i18n post-processes the response.
    const response = await middleware(state, () => pages(state));
    return i18n(state, response);
  },
};
```
astro/hono wraps the same handlers as Hono middleware, so you can mix Astro's pipeline with Hono's ecosystem of middleware (logger, CORS, JWT, rate limiting, etc.) using the app.use() pattern you already know:
```
// src/app.ts
import { Hono } from 'hono';
import { getCookie } from 'hono/cookie';
import { logger } from 'hono/logger';
import { actions, middleware, pages, i18n } from 'astro/hono';

const app = new Hono();

app.use(logger());

// Auth gate — only runs for /dashboard routes.
app.use('/dashboard/*', async (c, next) => {
  const session = getCookie(c, 'session');
  if (!session) return c.redirect('/login');
  return next();
});

app.use(actions());
app.use(middleware());
app.use(pages());
app.use(i18n());

export default app;
```
Both approaches give you the same power — pick whichever fits your project. If you don't need a framework, astro/fetch keeps things minimal. If you want a rich middleware ecosystem, astro/hono gets you there with one import.

For more information on enabling and using this feature in your project, see the experimental advanced routing docs. To give feedback, or to keep up with its development, see the advanced routing RFC for more information and discussion.
#16366 d69f858 Thanks @matthewp! - Adds a consume() instance method to AstroCookies. This method marks the cookies as consumed and returns the Set-Cookie header values. After consumption, any subsequent set() calls will log a warning, since the headers have already been sent.

Previously this was only available as a static method AstroCookies.consume(cookies). The static method is now deprecated but kept for backward compatibility with existing adapters.
#16412 ba2d2e3 Thanks @0xbejaxer! - Add retry and error event handling for astro-island hydration import failures to reduce unrecoverable hydration errors on transient network failures.
#16582 885cd31 Thanks @Princesseuh! - Adds a new image.dangerouslyProcessSVG flag to optionally enable processing SVG inputs. For security reasons, Astro will no longer rasterizes SVG image sources by default in its default image service and endpoint.

Set image.dangerouslyProcessSVG: true to opt back into processing SVG inputs.
```
// astro.config.mjs
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';

export default defineConfig({
  // ...
  image: {
    dangerouslyProcessSVG: true,
  },
});
```
Note that this is a breaking change for users who were previously relying on Astro's default image service to rasterize SVG inputs, but it is a necessary change to improve security and prevent potential vulnerabilities.
#16519 1b1c218 Thanks @louisescher! - Adds support for redirecting URLs in remote image optimization.

Previously, when a remote image URL meant to be optimized by Astro led to a redirect, Astro would fail silently and ignore the redirect. Now, Astro tracks up to 10 redirects for these images. If any of the redirects are not covered by a pattern in image.remotePatterns or a domain in image.domains, Astro will fail with a helpful error message.

In the following example, the first image would be loaded successfully, while the second would lead to Astro throwing an error:
```
export default defineConfig({
  image: {
    domains: ['example.com', 'cdn.example.com'],
  },
});
```
; { /* Redirects to https://malicious.com/image.png: */ } ;">
```
{
  /* Redirects to https://cdn.example.com/assets/image.png: */
}
<Image
  src="https://example.com/assets/image.png"
  width="1920"
  height="1080"
  alt="An example image."
/>;

{
  /* Redirects to https://malicious.com/image.png: */
}
<Image
  src="https://example.com/bad-image.png"
  width="1920"
  height="1080"
  alt="An example image."
/>;
```
In cases where all redirects to HTTPS hosts should be trusted, the following configuration for image.remotePatterns can be used:
```
export default defineConfig({
  image: {
    remotePatterns: [
      {
        protocol: 'https',
      },
    ],
  },
});
```

Patch Changes

#16592 9c6efc5 Thanks @matthewp! - Escapes interpolated values in the dev server redirect HTML template, consistent with how the 404 template already handles them
#16585 78f305e Thanks @web-dev0521! - Fixes z.array(z.boolean()) in form actions incorrectly coercing the string "false" to true. Boolean array elements now use the same 'true'/'false' string comparison as single z.boolean() fields, so submitting ["false", "true", "false"] correctly parses as [false, true, false].
#16567 12a03f2 Thanks @matthewp! - Fixes deleted content collection entries persisting in getCollection() results during dev
#16595 ce9b25c Thanks @web-dev0521! - Fixes pushDirective in the CSP runtime duplicating the new directive once per existing non-matching directive. Calling insertDirective() (or otherwise pushing a directive whose name is not yet in the list) now appends it exactly once, and a directive that merges with a later existing entry no longer leaves an unmerged copy behind.
#16600 94e4b7c Thanks @web-dev0521! - Fixes Astro.preferredLocale returning the wrong value when i18n.locales mixes object-form entries ({ path, codes }) with string entries that normalize to the same locale. The first matching code in the configured locales order is now selected, matching the documented behavior.
#16591 cce20f7 Thanks @matthewp! - Uses a consistent generic error message in the image endpoint across all adapters
#16629 f54be80 Thanks @g-taki! - Fixes a bug where SSR responses in astro dev could crash with TypeError: this.logger.flush is not a function.
#16589 3740b24 Thanks @ArmandPhilippot! - Fixes an outdated code snippet in the documentation for session storage configuration.
