@dosubot[bot] commented on GitHub (Dec 9, 2025):

This is a known regression in better-auth v1.4.6: Node.js-only modules like createRequire from node:module and node:async_hooks are imported in code paths that end up in browser builds, which Vite/Rollup cannot handle, causing your build to fail. This happens if you import from the default entrypoint (better-auth) or use server-only plugins or modules in client code. See issue #6635 and related discussion.

To fix this:

  • Make sure all client-side imports use better-auth/client and better-auth/client/plugins only. Audit your codebase for any imports from better-auth, better-auth/plugins, or other server-only modules in client code.
  • If you use SSO/social sign-in, initiate it from the client using authClient.api.signInSSO from better-auth/client, not from server/backend routes. Only handle the callback endpoint server-side.
  • If you still see the error, you may need to downgrade to a version before the regression (e.g., 1.3.4) or try the latest beta (e.g., 1.4.6-beta.4) as a temporary workaround.
  • Excluding better-auth from Vite's optimizeDeps may help in some cases, but it won't resolve the issue if server-only code is still imported in client bundles.

If you want help auditing your imports or need a code example, just share your import statements or a minimal reproduction.

Only handle the callback endpoint server-side. - If you still see the error, you may need to downgrade to a version before the regression (e.g., `1.3.4`) or try the latest beta (e.g., `1.4.6-beta.4`) as a temporary workaround. - Excluding `better-auth` from Vite's `optimizeDeps` may help in some cases, but it won't resolve the issue if server-only code is still imported in client bundles. If you want help auditing your imports or need a code example, just share your import statements or a minimal reproduction. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?

Rolling back to v1.4.5 is a solid workaround—this regression in v1.4.6 happens because Node.js-only modules like createRequire and async_hooks are imported in code paths that end up in browser builds, which Vite can't handle. If you want to upgrade in the future, keep an eye out for releases or betas that address this issue, or let me know if you want help auditing your imports to avoid server-only code in client bundles.

@dosubot[bot] commented on GitHub (Dec 11, 2025):

Yes, there’s progress! The regression in v1.4.6 is confirmed and a fix was merged to prevent static Node.js imports from breaking browser and edge builds. This fix is available in beta releases after v1.4.6—users report that installing the latest beta (like 1.4.7-beta.2) resolves the issue source, source.

If you want to upgrade, try the latest beta version. If you prefer to avoid betas, keep an eye out for the next stable release. The technical root cause was static imports of Node.js modules (like createRequire and async_hooks) in code paths that sometimes end up in browser bundles; the fix uses dynamic imports and runtime detection to avoid this.

If you can’t upgrade, you can still downgrade to v1.4.5 or audit your imports to make sure you only use client entrypoints (better-auth/client) in browser code. Let me know if you want help with migration or import auditing!

@jsa4000 In case it helps you resolve the issue in your project, I tracked the issue down to two imports which were included in my client bundle.

import { generateId } from "better-auth";
import { sessionSchema, userSchema } from "better-auth/db";

If you have any custom plugins or use any utilities imported from better-auth or better-auth/db, I recommend starting with those.

Thanks for the swift response @jsa4000. That's good to know 👍. I saw a few related Cloudflare issues and hoped 1.4.7-beta.2+ would resolve the Tanstack Start issue.

Unfortunately, I can't easily upgrade to beta versions because we rely heavily on internal methods and fork plugins like Organisations. Going from 1.3.x to 1.4.6 was a big job in itself, with the introduction of better-auth/core and adapter changes.

I look forward to 1.4.7

Have a great Sunday.
