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

Hi team,
Thanks for the great project, I've been using better-auth and I love it.
I am now using better-auth with react-router@v7 and my use case is to verify the request if it is authenticated or not on the server side.
Is there any API that I can just pass in the request object and better-auth will tell if it is valid or not?

NOTE: If better-auth doesn't have that before, I'm willing to contribute to it as I think this is a totally valid use case.

Thank you

Describe the solution you'd like

Something like this:

const loader = async ({ request } : Route.LoaderArgs) => {
  const isAuthenticated = auth.verify(request)
  ...
}

Describe alternatives you've considered

No

Give this a try.

const session = await auth.api.getSession({
    headers: request.headers
});

if there's no session, it'll return null
