Can I use "skip" with zQuery?

I'm trying to get a files metadata if a file id exists and "skip" would be perfect for that use case. When inspecting useQuery I can pass skip, but when I try it throws an error because of my zod schema in the query definition. Is there a workaround for this?

  const fileWithData = useQuery(
    api.files.getFile,
    stagedImageId
      ? {
          storageId: stagedImageId || "",
        }
      : "skip"
  );

  const fileWithData = useQuery(
    api.files.getFile,
    stagedImageId
      ? {
          storageId: stagedImageId || "",
        }
      : "skip"
  );

zQuery definition

export const zQuery = zCustomQuery(query, NoOp);

export const zQuery = zCustomQuery(query, NoOp);

Error

Ents + Server components

Hello 👋 I'm using convex with NextJS and the preloadQuery and fetchQuery methods are working great for me. The only thing I can see getting in my way a the moment is the Ents types. In the docs it says you can specify a prop from a server component with:

  preloadedTasks: Preloaded<typeof api.tasks.list>;

  preloadedTasks: Preloaded<typeof api.tasks.list>;

However when using Ents the return type of queries doesn't equal Preloaded<typeof api.tasks.list>. I can't see anything in the Ents docs about this. So what I'm asking is: is what I'm trying to do not possible, not been tried before yet or just not documented yet? I reckon the answer lies in just a fancy typescript type, although unfortunately I'm not good enough with typescript yet to figure it out.
