What does "off the rails" mean? Did an error happen? Be sure to provide a minimal reproducible example and the full traceback when reporting an issue.
from flask.
Sure, fair:
from flask import Flask, flash, get_flashed_messages
app = Flask(__name__)
app.secret_key = "abcdef"
@app.route("/")
def hello_world():
get_flashed_messages()
flash("hi")
assert get_flashed_messages()
Run with
flask --app=flask_repro run
go to http://127.0.0.1:5000/ and see
Traceback (most recent call last):

What does "off the rails" mean?
"Off the rails" means that flashes
is not None there, and so the code does not look in the session (assuming that's what it's supposed to do).
from flask.
This is documented: https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/api/#flask.get_flashed_messages
Further calls in the same request to the function will return the same messages.
The intended use is documented as well: https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/patterns/flashing/
The flashing system basically makes it possible to record a message at the end of a request and access it next request and only next request.
You're intended to put messages into one request, then get them out in the next request. Getting them out, putting them in, and getting them out again in the same request is not the intended use case.
