feat(shared): add getSignInNextStep and getSignUpNextStep bridge by alexcarpenter · Pull Request #10742 · clerk/javascript

alexcarpenter · 2026-11-10T15:06:43Z

Description

Stacked on #10733 (design doc).

Adds getSignInNextStep and getSignUpNextStep to @clerk/shared (src/internal/clerk-js/nextStep.ts). Both are @internal and compute the next step of a sign-in or sign-up from the fields FAPI sends today, so Mosaic can drive its flows from a single NextStep value, as described in packages/mosaic/docs/internals/sign-in-sign-up-flow.md.

getSignUpNextStep returns start when the sign-up has no id. SignUpFuture.status falls back to missing_requirements before the sign-up is created, so checking only status === null returned unknown for a new sign-up.

Walkthrough

Adds NextStep and input types, plus functions that map sign-in and sign-up state to next steps. Tests cover status mappings, precedence, verification state, targets, session IDs, and unknown outcomes. The documentation now points to nextStep.ts and labels the bridge “Next-step bridge.” The changeset file contains only delimiters.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Possibly related issues

[@clerk/react v6] <SignIn> sends duplicate email_code on second-factor (MFA) step, distinct from #8463 #9287 — The selectors expose whether second-factor verification is sent, a state relevant to duplicate-code handling. This change does not itself prevent duplicate sends.

Possibly related PRs

clerk/javascript#10733 — Adds the initial getNextStep bridge; this PR implements the corresponding selectors in nextStep.ts.

Merge Risk: Low · up to a6b53

A new internal helper treats an unexpected created-but-statusless sign-up as a fresh start instead of an unknown state. It has no consumers yet, so it is low risk and can be fixed with a one-line change.

Sign-up next step from real resources

Tested on 7f4de014, untouched since — After the rename, an uncreated SignUpFuture still yields start and every sign-up state maps to its documented step.

Return unknown for a created sign-up with null status.

If the input has an ID and a null status, the selector returns start, although the design reserves that step for an uncreated resource. Return the fallback instead. The FAPI JSON type does not establish that FAPI sends this state, but the selector and snapshot types permit it.

Proposed fix
