Reject or de-duplicate repeated path parameter names.
A relative override can declare an ancestor parameter again. This code prepends the ancestor parameter to the override parameter, so :a below [a] produces two a entries. The pending test in packages/router/src/unplugin/core/tree.spec.ts Lines 776-788 documents duplicate generated type keys.
Emit a diagnostic and retain one parameter, or reject the override before code generation.

Thanks! There are a few things I found while working on this that I will fix locally after merging

@G100my what were the actual filepath and overrides you had in your app? I'm realizing having any kind of override for paths is too dangerous, especially absolute overrides. Knowing what you are trying to do will help me out too |

Hey @G100my, thanks for the fix — the new types do match runtime, no complaints there. cc @posva The thing is that I've tried building a modal as a next.js-style parallel/intercepting route (ref). An overlay route nested under my session layout (
Found this by accident btw — while testing the pkg.pr.new preview of #2792, the generated The issue: const route = useRoute('session')
route.params.id // TS2339 — 'id' does not exist on
// 'Record<never, never> | { id?: string | undefined; } | { channelId: string; } | { providerId: string; }'This type error breaks the build — any type-safe way to read the layout's own params from useRoute(name) here, or an intended pattern for this? Happy to throw together a minimal repro if that helps. Actual file layout and path overrides// src/router/index.ts — hard-load fallback
router.beforeEach((to, from) => {
if (to.meta.overlay && from.matched.length === 0 && typeof to.name === 'string') {
const fullPageName = to.name === 'settings-overlay'
? '/settings'
: to.name.replace('settings-overlay', 'settings')
return { name: fullPageName } as RouteLocationRaw
}

Hi, @posva In my previous use case — which was actually only earlier in 2026... things are changing really fast 😅 — there were cases where certain pages needed to have specific, stable paths so that other services could link to them directly. At the same time, within the file structure, we wanted the development team to be able to identify the purpose of different pages more easily, so we preferred using more descriptive filenames instead of structures like That was the main reason I used path overrides: to keep the externally exposed URL structure separate from the internal file naming and organization. Looking back now, though, with the rapid development of AI-assisted tooling, engineers may gradually become less dependent on file names and directory structures for understanding a codebase. So adding complexity to routing overrides purely for the sake of file naming readability may not be worth the trade-off anymore. If absolute path overrides make the package less safe or predictable, or add unnecessary complexity to the core logic, I'd support removing them in favor of keeping the base package behavior simpler and more consistent. |

And lastly, thank you for all the work you've put into the Vue ecosystem over the years. I really appreciate it. |

@G100my thanks for the info. If it helps, you can (and IMO should) name params more explicitly like One of the advantages of file-based approach is that collisions are harder (groups can still produce collisions). If we start overriding paths, then we need to read each file to know but with a file-based approach you only need to list files to know |
