fix: only tree-shake client side effects when linked - #308
Conversation
The client build's "every module is side effect free unless Marko says otherwise" default assumed this plugin owns the entry graph. Unlinked consumers (Storybook, vitest) supply their own entries whose modules run for their side effects, so the policy shook those out — a static Storybook lost `virtual:/@storybook/builder-vite/setup-addons.js`, and with it the preview channel, leaving composed refs spinning forever. Skip the override, and the AST bookkeeping that feeds it, unless linked. The `browser-side-effects` fixture (which runs unlinked) now guards the unlinked side, and the new `isomorphic-side-effects` fixture keeps covering the shaking itself. Fixes #307, storybookjs/marko#59

WalkthroughChange: Client AST retention, Marko-specific tree-shaking, bare-import propagation, and compiled AST scanning now apply only to linked client builds. Unlinked builds retain Vite’s default side-effect behavior. The PR adds an isomorphic side-effects fixture with tracked imports, SSR handling, a Vite development server, and a static HTTP server. Browser fixture comments and a patch changeset document the updated behavior. Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to The PR limits side-effect tree-shaking to linked builds and adds coverage for linked and unlinked behavior; the remaining fixture and release-note cleanup does not create merge-blocking risk. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)
