Original Pull Request: https://github.com/better-auth/better-auth/pull/8637

State: closed
Merged: Yes

Summary

Closes #8622

  • When the old @better-auth/cli detects better-auth >= 1.5.0 is installed, it prints a warning directing users to npx auth@latest
  • Uses createRequire from the user's CWD to resolve better-auth's package.json and semver.gte for version comparison
  • Uses chalk for terminal colors (consistent with the rest of the CLI, respects NO_COLOR)
  • Silently skips the check if better-auth is not installed yet

This is the correct target branch (v1.4.x) since the warning belongs in the old @better-auth/cli package, not the new auth CLI on canary.

See also: #8624 (same intent but incorrectly targets canary)

Test plan

  • Install better-auth@1.5.0 in a test project, run npx @better-auth/cli generate — should see the yellow warning
  • Install better-auth@1.4.21 in a test project, run npx @better-auth/cli generate — should NOT see a warning
  • Uninstall better-auth entirely, run npx @better-auth/cli init — should NOT see a warning (silent skip)
