Brings main's `chore: release v1.6.3 (#9081)` commit into next after the
stable release. Conflict resolution:

- `packages/*/package.json`: keep next's `1.7.0-beta.0` (per the release
  bot's standard rule: next is always ahead of main in version).
- `packages/*/CHANGELOG.md`: keep both version entries side-by-side. Next's
  `1.7.0-beta.0` section stays on top; main's new `1.6.3` section slots in
  below. Each entry describes its own branch's release.
- `.changeset/*.md`: restore the 14 changesets git auto-deleted. Next is in
  pre-release mode (`.changeset/pre.json` `mode: "pre"`), so changesets
  accumulate across beta cuts and are only consumed on `exit-pre`. Main's
  release deleted them from main; next must keep them for its own pre-release
  accumulator.

Better Auth CLI

Better Auth comes with a built-in CLI to help you manage the database schema needed for both core functionality and plugins.

Init

The CLI includes an init command to add Better Auth to your project.

npx auth@latest init

Generate

The generate command creates the schema required by Better Auth. If youre using a database adapter like Prisma or Drizzle, this command will generate the right schema for your ORM. If youre using the built-in Kysely adapter, it will generate an SQL file you can run directly on your database.

npx auth@latest generate

Migrate

The migrate command applies the Better Auth schema directly to your database. This is available if youre using the built-in Kysely adapter. For other adapters, youll need to apply the schema using your ORMs migration tool.

npx auth@latest migrate

Secret

The CLI also provides a way to generate a secret key for your Better Auth instance.

npx auth@latest secret
