+The handler can report the original value and provide a safer replacement for the client. It may be `async`: SolidStart awaits it before serializing the response, so a monitoring service can flush first. If the handler itself throws or rejects, the original value is sent as if no handler were configured.
 
-Returning or resolving to `undefined` or `null` preserves the original value. A `Response` preserves control flow, while any other value replaces the original. The module is bundled only into the server, so it can import server-only code.
+- Return `undefined` or `null` to preserve the original value.
+- Return a `Response` unchanged to pass it through, which keeps a thrown `redirect` working. See [Return Responses](/solid-start/v2/advanced/return-responses).
+- Return any other value to send it in place of the original, serialized to the client along with its own properties.
