+# Issue Report: Extract Shared Core Preset Factory
+
+## Issue
+
+> **Project:** [Storybook](https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook)
+> **Issue:** [#34258 — Duplicate Code: Framework core Preset Builder Options Pattern](https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook/issues/34258)
+> **Status:** Implemented, tested locally, pull request submitted.
+
+The Storybook repo contains one `core` preset handler per framework package. Every such handler is responsible for:
+
+1. Resolving the active framework preset value from the preset system.
+2. Setting the builder (name + forwarded builder options).
+3. Optionally declaring a renderer.
+
+At the time this issue was filed, six framework packages contained an identical structural block:
+
+```ts
+export const core: PresetProperty<'core'> = async (config, options) => {
+ const framework = await options.presets.apply('framework');
+ return {
+ ...config,
+ builder: {
+ name: ,
+ options: typeof framework === 'string' ? {} : framework.options.builder || {},
+ },
+ renderer: , // optional
+ };
+};
+```
+
+The duplicated inline ternary `typeof framework === 'string' ? {} : framework.options.builder || {}` was the primary concern raised in the issue. However, the broader structural duplication, the full `core` preset handler pattern, is a deeper maintainability problem where any future change to how the `core` preset is constructed (e.g., adding a new field, changing how the framework is resolved, or changing the builder options merge strategy) must be applied to six separate files.
+
+This is a **maintainability issue**, not a functional defect. All six implementations were equivalent at the time of discovery, but that equivalence is accidental and fragile.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- The resolved builder options must remain identical to the pre-refactor values for all supported framework configurations.
+- The duplicated builder-options resolution logic must be extracted into a shared helper function.
+- The full `core` preset handler pattern must be extractable into a factory function usable by all six framework packages.
+- The factory must support an optional async hook for frameworks that require additional side effects before returning (e.g. Next.js loading webpack config).
+- The helper must safely handle `null`/`undefined` framework values without throwing.
+- All six framework `core` preset handlers must use the shared factory.
+- Both helpers must be covered by automated unit tests.
+- All helpers must be placed in the existing shared utility layer (`storybook/internal/common`) following project conventions.
+
+## Source Code Files
+
+### Directly involved files
+
+- `code/frameworks/react-webpack5/src/preset.ts`: Webpack 5 preset for React. Declares `core` with duplicated structure.
+ - Replacing full `core` handler with `createCorePreset(...)` call.
+
+- `code/frameworks/server-webpack5/src/preset.ts`: Webpack 5 preset for Server renderer. Same pattern.
+ - Replacing full `core` handler with `createCorePreset(...)` call.
+
+- `code/frameworks/angular/src/preset.ts`: Webpack 5 preset for Angular. Same pattern, no renderer.
+ - Replacing full `core` handler with `createCorePreset(...)` call.
+
+- `code/frameworks/ember/src/preset.ts`: Webpack 5 preset for Ember. Same pattern, no renderer.
+ - Extending existing import, replacing `core` with `createCorePreset(...)`.
+
+- `code/frameworks/nextjs-vite/src/preset.ts`: Vite preset for Next.js. Same pattern.
+ - Replacing full `core` handler with `createCorePreset(...)` call.
+
+- `code/frameworks/nextjs/src/preset.ts`: Webpack 5 preset for Next.js. Same pattern + async `configureConfig` side effect.
+ - Using `createCorePreset(...)` with `beforeReturn` hook.
+
+- `code/core/src/common/utils/get-builder-options.ts`: Shared common utility. Exports `getBuilderOptions(options)`.
+ - Adding `getFrameworkBuilderOptions`, `CreateCorePresetOptions`, and `createCorePreset`.
+
+### Indirectly involved files (no changes required)
+
+- `code/core/src/common/index.ts`: Re-exports everything from `get-builder-options.ts` via `export * from './utils/get-builder-options'`. All new exports are automatically included.
+
+- `code/core/src/types/modules/core-common.ts`: Defines `Preset`, `CoreConfig`, `Options`, and `PresetPropertyFn`, the types used by the new helpers.
+
+### New files
+
+- `code/core/src/common/utils/get-builder-options.test.ts`: Unit tests for `getFrameworkBuilderOptions` (2 cases) and `createCorePreset` (4 cases).
+ - 6 tests total.
+
+## Design of the Fix
+
+### Strategy
+
+Two helpers are introduced, both in `code/core/src/common/utils/get-builder-options.ts`:
+
+1. **`getFrameworkBuilderOptions(framework: Preset)`** — a pure synchronous function that extracts builder options from a resolved framework preset value. This solves the inline ternary duplication.
+
+2. **`createCorePreset(options: CreateCorePresetOptions)`** — a factory function that encapsulates the entire `core` preset handler pattern. It calls `getFrameworkBuilderOptions` internally. Framework packages use this factory instead of writing the full async function, expressing only what is unique to them: the builder name, an optional renderer name, and an optional async hook.
+
+Placing both in `get-builder-options.ts` is appropriate because:
+
+- The file already handles the closely related concern of resolving builder options.
+- `createCorePreset` depends directly on `getFrameworkBuilderOptions`.
+- The existing barrel re-export in `index.ts` includes both automatically.
+- All six framework packages can already import from `storybook/internal/common`.
+
+### The `beforeReturn` hook
+
+Most framework presets map cleanly onto the `{ builderName, rendererName }` pattern. The Next.js webpack preset is an exception: it must call `configureConfig(...)` after resolving the framework but before returning. Rather than leaving Next.js outside the factory (which would create an inconsistency), the `beforeReturn` hook allows this side effect to be expressed as part of the factory call while keeping the factory itself generic.

+}
+

+
+### Framework preset files — before / after
+
+**Simpler cases:** react-webpack5, server-webpack5, angular, ember, nextjs-vite
+
+```diff

+# Issue Report: Categorize UniversalStore internal errors
+
+## Issue
+
+> **Project:** [Storybook](https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook)
+> **Issue:** [#34566 — Categorize UniversalStore follower timeout error instead of generic UncaughtManagerError](https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook/issues/34566)
+> **Status:** Implemented, verified against architectural review, ready for submission.
+
+### Description
+
+When a `UniversalStore` follower times out waiting for a leader (e.g., `storybook/status`), it previously threw a generic `TypeError`:
+
+```javascript
+Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: No existing state found for follower with id: 'storybook/status'. Make sure a leader with the same id exists before creating a follower.
+```
+
+This error was caught by the generic `UncaughtManagerError` handler in `prepareForTelemetry.ts`, which wrapped it as `SB_MANAGER_UNCAUGHT_0001`. Because the error was a plain `TypeError` rather than a `StorybookError`, it was bucketed into a generic catch-all category.
+
+This made it impossible to distinguish this specific failure (a common network or initialization timeout) from other genuine uncaught exceptions in telemetry and error reports.
+
+This fix introduces a dedicated `UniversalStoreError` hierarchy and specifically categorizes the follower timeout under its own category, allowing for better tracking and triaging.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- **Categorized Errors:** The error must be a subclass of `StorybookError` so it is recognized by the telemetry system.
+- **Dedicated Category:** Introduce `MANAGER_UNIVERSAL-STORE` as a new error category in the manager error registry.
+- **Backward Compatibility:** The error message must remain identical to the original string to avoid breaking external log parsers that might be looking for that specific text.
+- **Architectural Colocation:** Store-related errors should be defined within the `universal-store` module rather than the global `manager-errors.ts` to improve modularity.
+- **Explicit Extensions:** Adhere to Storybook's ESM coding guidelines by using explicit `.ts` extensions for all relative imports and re-exports.
+- **Correct API References:** Error messages must point users to the correct public APIs (`untilReady()`) instead of internal or non-existent properties.
+
+## Source Code Files
+
+### Directly involved files
+
+- `code/core/src/shared/universal-store/errors.ts`: **New file.** Contains the `UniversalStoreError` abstract base class and specific implementations for all UniversalStore-related failures (timeout, missing ID, etc.).
+- `code/core/src/shared/universal-store/index.ts`: The main store implementation. Updated to throw `UniversalStoreFollowerTimeoutError` instead of `TypeError`.
+- `code/core/src/manager-errors.ts`: The central registry for manager-side errors. Updated to include the new `MANAGER_UNIVERSAL_STORE` category and re-export errors from the shared module.
+
+### Indirectly involved files (no changes required)
+
+- `code/core/src/manager/utils/prepareForTelemetry.ts`: The generic error handler. Now automatically categorizes the error because it correctly identifies it as a `StorybookError`.
+- `code/core/src/storybook-error.ts`: The base class for all Storybook errors.
+
+## Design of the Fix
+
+### Strategy
+
+The fix follows a modular "Error Colocation" strategy. Instead of cluttering the global `manager-errors.ts` with logic-specific error classes, we define them close to the code that throws them.
+
+1. **Hierarchy:** We created an abstract `UniversalStoreError` that sets the category to `MANAGER_UNIVERSAL-STORE` for all its children. This reduces duplication as every specific error (timeout, id required, etc.) inherits the category.
+2. **Telemetry Integration:** By inheriting from `StorybookError`, these classes automatically gain the ability to be serialized and reported with unique error codes.
+3. **Refinement via Review:** Following an architectural review, we ensured that:
+ - Relative imports use explicit `.ts` extensions to satisfy the ESM builder.
+ - User-facing messages point to the `untilReady()` Promise-returning method, which is the idiomatic way to wait for store synchronization.

+
+## Fix Source Code
+
+### `code/core/src/shared/universal-store/errors.ts` (Categorization logic)
+
+```ts
+import { StorybookError } from '../../storybook-error.ts';
+
+export abstract class UniversalStoreError extends StorybookError {
+ constructor(props: { code: number; message: string; name: string }) {
+ super({
+ ...props,
+ category: 'MANAGER_UNIVERSAL-STORE',
+ });
+ }
+}
+
+export class UniversalStoreFollowerTimeoutError extends UniversalStoreError {
+ constructor(public data: { id: string }) {
+ super({
+ name: 'UniversalStoreFollowerTimeoutError',
+ code: 1,
+ message: `No existing state found for follower with id: '${data.id}'. Make sure a leader with the same id exists before creating a follower.`,
+ });
+ }
+}
+
+// ... other error classes (e.g. UniversalStoreIdRequiredError, UniversalStoreNotConstructableError) ...
+
+export class UniversalStoreNotReadyError extends UniversalStoreError {
+ constructor(public data: { id: string; action: 'set state' | 'send event' }) {
+ super({
+ name: 'UniversalStoreNotReadyError',
+ code: 1003,
+ message: `Cannot ${data.action} before store with id '${data.id}' is ready. You can get the current status with store.status, or await store.untilReady() to wait for the store to be ready before sending events.`,
+ });
+ }
+}
+```
+
+### `code/core/src/manager-errors.ts` (Registry integration)
+
+```diff
+ export enum Category {
+ // ...
++ MANAGER_UNIVERSAL_STORE = 'MANAGER_UNIVERSAL-STORE',
+ }
+
++export {
++ UniversalStoreFollowerTimeoutError,
++ UniversalStoreIdRequiredError,
++ UniversalStoreMissingSubscribeArgumentError,
++ UniversalStoreNotConstructableError,
++ UniversalStoreNotReadyError,
++} from './shared/universal-store/errors.ts';
+```
+
+### `code/core/src/shared/universal-store/index.ts` (Usage)
+
+```diff
+- setTimeout(() => {
+- this.syncing!.reject!(
+- new TypeError(
+- `No existing state found for follower with id: '${this.id}'. Make sure a leader with the same id exists before creating a follower.`
+- )
+- );
+- }, 1000);
++ setTimeout(() => {
++ this.syncing!.reject!(new UniversalStoreFollowerTimeoutError({ id: this.id }));
++ }, 1000);
+```
+
