redux-saga with Redux Toolkit - effects do not run

Question

I've got a CRA setup with @reduxjs/toolkit and redux-saga.

The main saga does run. However, sub-sagas that are meant to be run on takeEvery or fork, do not seem to run at all.

Saga:

export function* saga() {
  console.log('main'); //logs

  fork(function* () {
    console.log('fork') //doesn't log
  });
}

Store:

const sagaMiddleware = createSagaMiddleware();
const store = configureStore({
  reducer: state => {
  },
  middleware: defaultMiddleware => defaultMiddleware().concat(sagaMiddleware)
});

sagaMiddleware.run(saga);

Repo link. (Nothing but CRA + Toolkit + redux-saga)

Pretty sure you need to yield both of those effects for them to do anything:

export function* saga() {
  console.log('main'); //runs

  yield takeEvery('*', function*() {
    console.log('takeEvery') //doesnt run
  })

  yield fork(function* () {
    console.log('gen') // doesnt run
  });
}

I think the yield takeEvery might also "block" the saga from continuing on to reach the fork? Not sure on the saga semantics here.
