Hydrogen fixes hydration interruption, Shopify CLI adds --no-input

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Shopify · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

Hydrogen's patch train lands a React hydration fix in the analytics provider and an env-pull correctness fix, while the CLI makes interactive behavior switchable for scripts and agents.

@shopify/hydrogen@2026.4.7 Shopify/hydrogen

by shopify-github-actions-access[bot]

Deferred cart, shop, and consent state updates now run inside startTransition, so React no longer abandons server-rendered HTML while Suspense boundaries are still dehydrating. useAnalytics().publish also stops emitting the state update when consent changes underneath it.

--template skeleton on h2 init and npm create @shopify/hydrogen now behaves like omitting the flag: dependencies install, .env and the project name are set up, and every other flag is honored instead of downloading GitHub's latest release. Non-interactive runs using it should pass the same prompt-skipping flags as the default init flow, --mock-shop, --markets, and --styling among them.

Add `shopify app import channel-config` for partner channel spec import Shopify/cli

by suzkiee

shopify app import channel-config gives legacy channel apps a partner-owned, deployable copy of the public parts of the channel_config extension spec, replacing reliance on app-level FrozenRecord fallback specs. Forked PRs remain unsupported for /snapit snapshot publishing, which now dispatches a separate release run on the default branch since npm blocked Trusted Publishing from issue_comment ...
