On Node.js 24.20, got v11 retrying a network error destroys the in-flight socket, which now emits ERR_SOCKET_CLOSED_BEFORE_CONNECTION. That rejects the got promise early, the retry then attaches onCancel to a settled promise, and the retried request's ENOTFOUND/ECONNREFUSED is thrown as an uncaught exception, crashing the process. fetch now defaults to `retry: 0`. `gotOpts.retry` still opts back in.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
The explicit-retry test covers direct fetch only, but prerender fallback constructs its own fetch options before invoking the same helper. Add a fallback-mode case with gotOpts.retry and a retryable response so a regression that drops the opt-in on that path is detected.

Fixes the
test/index.jscrash in https://github.com/microlinkhq/html-get/actions/runs/34828445442/job/103935300740 (seen on #283).Root cause
This isn't a flake, and the
content-typebump didn't cause it. The runner picked up Node.js 24.20.0. On that version got v11's retry path crashes the process:ENOTFOUND,ECONNREFUSED, ...) and got schedules a retry.ERR_SOCKET_CLOSED_BEFORE_CONNECTIONfor that, and it rejects the got promise.onCancelon the already-settled promise, which throws. The retried request's network error has no listener and is thrown as an uncaught exception.Minimal got-only repro:
got('https://notexisturl.dev')crashes on 24.20.0 and works on 24.16.0. Withretry: { limit: 0 }it's clean. HTTP status-code retries (503) aren't affected.Change
fetchdefaults toretry: 0(REQ_RETRY).gotOpts.retrystill opts back in.test/retry.js: local servers check attempt counts for a network reset (fetch and prerender fallback) and for a 503, plus thegotOpts.retryopt-in.The microlink API already passes
retry: 0to html-get and handles retries itself, so its behavior doesn't change.Testing
master(3 attempts instead of 1) and pass with the fix.test/index.jsfailed 8 of 8 runs before the fix and passed 3 of 3 after.standardis clean.content-type@3.1.0swapped in: 141 passed, 54 skipped, the same counts asmasterbefore the new tests, so build(deps): bump content-type from 3.0.0 to 3.1.0 #283 is fine once this lands.🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Note
Medium Risk
Changes default HTTP fetch behavior (no automatic retries) across all consumers unless they set
gotOpts.retry, which fixes crashes but may reduce resilience for callers that relied on got's defaults.Overview
Fetch requests no longer retry by default, avoiding process crashes on Node.js 24.20 when got v11 retries network failures (
ENOTFOUND, connection resets) and triggers an uncaught exception afterERR_SOCKET_CLOSED_BEFORE_CONNECTION.The internal
fetchpath now defaultsretryto0(REQ_RETRY) and passes it intogot, whilegotOpts.retrystill opts back in for status-code retries or other cases. The READMEgotOptssection documents this default and the Node 24.20 caveat.New
test/retry.jsasserts a single connection attempt for network errors (plain fetch and prerender fallback) and for HTTP 503 unlessgotOpts.retryis set.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit d12fbe1. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.
