### Description

Using `$validator->validate()` on a service cause the following error on blade:
`Uncaught Snapshot missing on Livewire component with id: v8Azl0xMTGnP3s95KjPz`

If I rewrite the code to
```
try {
$validator->validate();
} catch (ValidationException $e) {
Log::error('Validate() error: ' . $e->getMessage());
throw new \InvalidArgumentException('Validate() error: ' . $e->getMessage());
}
```
The program works fine.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure at the $validator->validate() entry point in a Volt component using the reported PHP, Laravel, and Volt versions, then inspect the interaction with Blade and Livewire validation errors. Done means validation no longer causes the “Snapshot missing” error without requiring the reported exception conversion, with a regression test covering the case.
