I added a comment about this, but just re-iterating it here for more visibility: #46636 (comment)

Hey All! Not sure if this is discussed / requested anywhere, but is it possible to have both the API layer and the frontend glue code calling the API layer auto generated?

What I am thinking here is to have methods defined with data attributes like: "[ServerOnly] [API]" or something which will ensure these methods are only run on the server and the framework can auto generate the API layer for these methods and also generate the frontend glue code ( potentially using source generators? )

This way we can have a single component work in both server render mode ( any action calls the method directly ) and client render mode ( any action calls the auto generated API client )

Thanks for reaching out! This is something we're considering and tracking in #46400. Going to close this issue as a duplicate.
