The DOM is read before Vue has flushed the update.
Default severity: Not emitted
Applies to: Analyzed component graph and the supported facts described below
Automatic fix: None; review related files and apply the repair
Options: No per-code options; supported CLI findings accept severity overrides
This is a published diagnostic contract without a current producer. The Bad/Good scenario below explains the risk and repair; no flag currently makes this code trigger.
Shared project files
Use these unchanged files in both Bad and Good. Install the imported packages in the project: Vue, plus vue-router or Pinia where shown. Follow any version-specific support note. The entry root makes the component relationship explicit.
main.ts
import { createApp } from 'vue';
import App from './App.vue';
createApp(App).mount('#app');
index.html
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en"><head><meta charset="UTF-8"><title>Contract scenario</title></head>

read-label.ts
export function readLabel(node: HTMLElement | null): string {
return node?.textContent ?? '';
}
Bad
The click handler increments count and immediately reads the rendered paragraph, before Vue flushes the scheduled DOM update. sampled can contain the previous count.
App.vue
<script setup lang="ts">
import { ref } from 'vue';
import { readLabel } from './read-label';
const count = ref(0);
const label = ref<HTMLElement | null>(null);
const sampled = ref('');
function increment() {
count.value++;
sampled.value = readLabel(label.value);
}
</script>
<template>
<button @click="increment">Increment</button><p ref="label">{{ count }}</p><p>DOM sample: {{ sampled }}</p>
</template>
Good
Awaiting nextTick() after the state write lets Vue update the paragraph before readLabel samples its text.
App.vue
<script setup lang="ts">
import { nextTick, ref } from 'vue';
import { readLabel } from './read-label';
const count = ref(0);
const label = ref<HTMLElement | null>(null);
const sampled = ref('');
async function increment() {
count.value++;
await nextTick();
sampled.value = readLabel(label.value);
}
</script>
<template>
<button @click="increment">Increment</button><p ref="label">{{ count }}</p><p>DOM sample: {{ sampled }}</p>
</template>
The Good files demonstrate the change described above; other diagnostics can still apply to the complete project.
