What I did

Replaced the deprecated globalThis.litSsrCallConnectedCallback flag with the LitElementRenderer.renderOptions API introduced in @lit-labs/[email protected].

• core/pfe-core/ssr-shims.ts: Removed the deprecated global. Exported a new ssrCallConnectedCallback(predicate?) function that pushes a filter onto LitElementRenderer.renderOptions. Without a predicate, all elements opt in (backwards-compatible).

• tools/pfe-tools/ssr/global.ts: renderGlobal accepts an optional third connectedCallbackFilter parameter, forwarded to ssrCallConnectedCallback. Existing call sites pass no filter and retain the previous behavior.

• tools/pfe-tools/package.json: Bumped @lit-labs/ssr peer dep to ^4.1.0 to require the renderOptions API.

Closes #3158

Notes to Reviewers

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Server-side rendering can now limit which elements receive connectedCallback, using include and exclude filters. Exclusions take precedence; by default, all elements are included.
  • Rendering can opt out of invoking connectedCallback for all elements or select elements by their local name.

Would the new calling of ssrCallConnectedCallback() from users dictate this would change to a major release?

Walkthrough

The change replaces the deprecated SSR global with configurable LitElementRenderer options. It adds include and exclude predicates to ssr-shims and exposes them through an optional renderGlobal parameter.

Changes

SSR callback filtering

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Register filtered SSR callback options core/pfe-core/ssr-shims.ts, .changeset/lost-days-sick.md	ssr-shims exports predicate options and ssrCallConnectedCallback. The function registers a render option that enables connectedCallback when include matches and exclude does not. Defaults include all elements and exclude none. Importing the module registers the default behavior.
Expose filtering through renderGlobal tools/pfe-tools/ssr/global.ts, tools/pfe-tools/package.json, .changeset/poor-sky-blue.md	renderGlobal accepts optional localName predicates and passes them to ssrCallConnectedCallback. The @lit-labs/ssr peer dependency range changes to ^4.1.0. The changeset documents the new parameter.

Merge Risk: Low · up to fe037

Applications that import the core SSR shim directly with an older @lit-labs/ssr will fail at import without a package-manager warning. Adding an optional peer dependency on @lit-labs/ssr ^4.1.0 to the core package closes this gap, and it is a small follow-up.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "feat: allow connectedCallback calls to be filtered in SSR" matches the main change. The changeset adds an include/exclude filter for connectedCallback during SSR. The ssr-shims.ts module adds ssrCallConnectedCallback, and renderGlobal accepts connectedCallbackOptions. The title is specific and concise, and it follows the conventional commit style.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

[#3158] The issue requires replacing the deprecated global globalThis.litSsrCallConnectedCallback with LitElementRenderer.renderOptions. It allows either a pf-/rh- filter or a blanket opt-in that keeps the previous behavior. The raw summary reports that core/pfe-core/ssr-shims.ts removed the global assignment. It also reports that the module now registers a render option through LitElementRenderer.renderOptions. Its default, when imported, opts in all elements. This matches the blanket opt-in option in the issue. The summary also reports that renderGlobal can receive filtering options. Those options are optional, so the default behavior is kept. The @lit-labs/ssr peer dependency is raised to ^4.1.0, which provides the renderOptions API. No automated test is reported for the new behavior. The issue does not state a test requirement, so this does not block the verdict. Evidence is the AI-generated summary and PR description, not direct source inspection. Direct inspection of the reviewed head was not available in this review.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The reported changes support the #3158 objective. ssr-shims.ts removes the deprecated global and adds the renderOptions registration. tools/pfe-tools/ssr/global.ts forwards optional filter options. tools/pfe-tools/package.json raises the peer dependency that the new API needs. The two .changeset entries document these public changes for release notes. The optional include/exclude filtering goes beyond the minimum fix. It still relates to the issue's option to limit opt-in to pf-/rh- elements. The PR description names an optional connectedCallbackFilter predicate. The summary names a connectedCallbackOptions object with include and exclude. This is a discrepancy in the description of the API, not evidence of unrelated code. package-lock.json is excluded from review and was not used as evidence.

Minor · Stability & Availability · Quick win

Declare the @lit-labs/ssr minimum version in the core package.

ssr-shims.ts now calls LitElementRenderer.renderOptions.push(...) at import time. That call needs @lit-labs/[email protected] or later. The core manifest declares no @lit-labs/ssr dependency or peer dependency. Consumers that import @patternfly/pfe-core/ssr-shims.js with an older renderer get a TypeError during module evaluation. The package manager does not report the mismatch.

Declare the renderer as an optional peer dependency. The shim is used only for SSR, so client-only consumers should not be forced to install it.
