Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

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

Observation:
Generation of email verification, magic link and two factor OTPs creates many verification rows in the table.
This creates database traffic that could be unnecessary.
It seems like these would be well-suited to secondary storage (KV storage) if available.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add a storage option to each plugin that generates one time passwords.
If all plugins have the storage option set to secondary-storage, then a table won't be created to store codes.

Describe alternatives you've considered

N/A

@GautamBytes commented on GitHub (Mar 12, 2026):

The behavior you were asking for is already supported, but it’s configured through Better Auth’s global verification storage settings rather than per-plugin storage options.

I opened a docs PR to make that clearer here
