fix(css): skip the loading runtime when every css chunk is initial - #21862
Conversation
An initial chunk is seeded into installedChunks as loaded, so the css chunk loading handler can never reach its loading path for one. When no other chunk has css the whole runtime is dead code and still shipped.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change removes unused CSS loading code when all CSS chunks are initial while preserving loading for mixed initial/async cases. The integration test’s later style assertion is not synchronized with stylesheet loading, which can make regression coverage timing-sensitive; the PR is otherwise mergeable with explicit follow-up to make that assertion await completion. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 3 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 inconclusive)

Wait for the stylesheet before checking computed style.
Appending bundle0.css starts an asynchronous request. The related test checks getComputedStyle(document.body) when the lazy JavaScript import resolves, but it does not wait for the stylesheet load event. If the lazy chunk finishes first, the assertion can observe the pre-stylesheet state and fail intermittently. Expose stylesheet readiness from moduleScope and await it before the style assertion.

Passing done as the rejection handler does not catch a throw from the fulfillment handler, so a failed expectation timed out with no message.
Summary
CssLoadingRuntimeModuleemits the async css chunk-loading runtime whenever any chunk has css, without excluding the ones that are already initial — but an initial chunk is seeded intoinstalledChunksas loaded, so the handler can never reach its loading path for it. Where every css chunk is initial the whole runtime, and__webpack_require__.kwith it, is dead code that still ships.yarn test:sizereports one changed asset over the css cases, the new one, at 🟢 ↓ -4.50 KiB raw / -526 B gzip, and no runtime gained or lost a module. On webpack.js.org's own production build it is 1,225 raw / 388 gzip bytes off the entry bundle, which is what remained of itsmini-css-extract-plugin→ built-in css migration.What kind of change does this PR introduce?

This PR was prepared with Claude Code. It was used to isolate the dead runtime against a real build (webpack.js.org built both ways, runtime split into its own chunk to attribute the bytes), to write the failing case first, and to re-measure with
yarn test:size— which caught that a first version narrowed the emitted matcher and grew six other bundles, so the fix now only decides whether the runtime is emitted at all. All output was reviewed before committing.Generated by Claude Code
