Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It would be helpful if better-auth/minimal exports BetterAuthOptions, so that user could write code like

import { betterAuth, type BetterAuthOptions } from "better-auth/minimal";

const config: BetterAuthOptions = { ... };
// or
const config = { ... } satisfies BetterAuthOptions;

export const auth = betterAuth(config);

Describe the solution you'd like

Export type BetterAuthOptions, something like

// packages/better-auth/src/auth/minimal.ts

export type { BetterAuthOptions } from "@better-auth/core";

Describe alternatives you've considered

  1. Import from better-auth 
    import type { BetterAuthOptions } from "better-auth";
  2. Import from @better-auth/core 
    import type { BetterAuthOptions } from "@better-auth/core";
  3. Avoid typing the config object, but this would make it less flexible to modify the config object. 
    export const auth = betterAuth({ ... });

@better-auth-agent[bot] commented on GitHub (Nov 13, 2025):

Thanks for submitting this feature request regarding exporting BetterAuthOptions from the minimal package. Your suggestion to allow users to import the type directly and leverage TypeScript’s type inference for their configuration is very clear and could definitely improve developer ergonomics. A potential short-term workaround is to continue importing the type from the core package as you suggested, but having it exported from minimal would streamline the process.

Our team is taking a closer look at this request and discussing its feasibility for future releases. Could you share more on how this change might impact your integration experience or any additional features you’d like to see in the context of better type support?
