API Version 2025-11-10 (Nov 10, 2025) - BREAKING CHANGES ⚠️ Affects: Applications using Clerk Billing/Commerce APIs Critical Changes: Endpoint URLs: /commerce/ → /billing/ (30+ endpoints) GET /v1/commerce/plans → GET /v1/billing/plans GET /v1/commerce/statements → GET /v1/billing/statements POST /v1/me/commerce/checkouts → POST /v1/me/billing/checkouts Field Terminology: payment_source → payment_method // OLD (deprecated) { payment_source_id : \"...\" , payment_source : {...} } // NEW (required) { payment_method_id : \"...\" , payment_method : {...} } Removed Fields: Plans responses no longer include: amount , amount_formatted (use fee.amount instead) currency , currency_symbol (use fee objects) payer_type (use for_payer_type ) annual_monthly_amount , annual_amount Removed Endpoints: Invoices endpoint (use statements) Products endpoint Null Handling: Explicit rules - null means \"doesn't exist\", omitted means \"not asserting existence\" Migration: Update SDK to v6.35.0+ which includes support for API version 2025-11-10. Official Guide: https://clerk.com/docs/guides/development/upgrading/upgrade-guides/2025-11-10 2. Next.js v6 Async auth() (Oct 2024) - BREAKING CHANGE ⚠️ Affects: All Next.js Server Components using auth() // ❌ OLD (v5 - synchronous) const { userId } = auth () // ✅ NEW (v6 - asynchronous) const { userId } = await auth () Also affects: auth.protect() is now async in middleware // ❌ OLD (v5) auth. protect () // ✅ NEW (v6) await auth. protect () Compatibility: Next.js 15, 16 supported. Static rendering by default. 3. PKCE Support for Custom OAuth (Nov 12, 2025) Custom OIDC providers and social connections now support PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange) for enhanced security in native/mobile applications where client secrets cannot be safely stored. Use case: Mobile apps, native apps, public clients that can't securely store secrets. 4. Client Trust: Credential Stuffing Defense (Nov 14, 2025) Automatic secondary authentication when users sign in from unrecognized devices: Activates for users with valid passwords but no 2FA No configuration required Included in all Clerk plans How it works: Clerk automatically prompts for additional verification (email code, backup code) when detecting sign-in from new device. 5. Next.js 16 Support (Nov 2025) @clerk/nextjs v6.35.2+ includes cache invalidation improvements for Next.js 16 during sign-out. Critical Patterns & Error Prevention Next.js v6: Async auth() Helper Pattern: import { auth } from '@clerk/nextjs/server' export default async function Page ( ) { const { userId } = await auth () // ← Must await if (!userId) { return < div > Unauthorized </ div > } return < div > User ID: {userId} </ div > } Cloudflare Workers: authorizedParties (CSRF Prevention) CRITICAL: Always set authorizedParties to prevent CSRF attacks import { verifyToken } from '@clerk/backend' const { data, error } = await verifyToken (token, { secretKey : c. env . CLERK_SECRET_KEY , // REQUIRED: Prevent CSRF attacks authorizedParties : [ 'https://yourdomain.com' ], }) Why: Without authorizedParties , attackers can use valid tokens from other domains. Source: https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend/verify-token JWT Templates - Size Limits & Shortcodes JWT Size Limitation: 1.2KB for Custom Claims ⚠️ Problem : Browser cookies limited to 4KB. Clerk's default claims consume ~2.8KB, leaving 1.2KB for custom claims . ⚠️ Development Note : When testing custom JWT claims in Vite dev mode, you may encounter \"431 Request Header Fields Too Large\" error. This is caused by Clerk's handshake token in the URL exceeding Vite's 8KB limit. See Issue #11 for solution. Solution: // ✅ GOOD: Minimal claims { \"user_id\" : \"{{user.id}}\" , \"email\" : \"{{user.primary_email_address}}\" , \"role\" : \"{{user.public_metadata.role}}\" } // ❌ BAD: Exceeds limit { \"bio\" : \"{{user.public_metadata.bio}}\" , // 6KB field \"all_metadata\" : \"{{user.public_metadata}}\" // Entire object } Best Practice : Store large data in database, include only identifiers/roles in JWT. Available Shortcodes Reference Category Shortcodes Example User ID & Name {{user.id}} , {{user.first_name}} , {{user.last_name}} , {{user.full_name}} \"John Doe\" Contact {{user.primary_email_address}} , {{user.primary_phone_address}} \"john@example.com\" Profile {{user.image_url}} , {{user.username}} , {{user.created_at}} \"https://...\" Verification {{user.email_verified}} , {{user.phone_number_verified}} true Metadata {{user.public_metadata}} , {{user.public_metadata.FIELD}} {\"role\": \"admin\"} Organization org_id , org_slug , org_role (in sessionClaims) \"org:admin\" Advanced Features: String Interpolation : \"{{user.last_name}} {{user.first_name}}\" Conditional Fallbacks : \"{{user.public_metadata.role || 'user'}}\" Nested Metadata : \"{{user.public_metadata.profile.interests}}\" Official Docs : https://clerk.com/docs/guides/sessions/jwt-templates Testing with Clerk Test Credentials (Fixed OTP: 424242) Test Emails (no emails sent, fixed OTP): john+clerk_test@example.com jane+clerk_test@gmail.com Test Phone Numbers (no SMS sent, fixed OTP): +12015550100 +19735550133 Fixed OTP Code : 424242 (works for all test credentials) Generate Session Tokens (60-second lifetime) Script ( scripts/generate-session-token.js ): # Generate token CLERK_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_... node scripts/generate-session-token.js # Create new test user CLERK_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_... node scripts/generate-session-token.js --create-user # Auto-refresh token every 50 seconds CLERK_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_... node scripts/generate-session-token.js --refresh Manual Flow : Create user: POST /v1/users Create session: POST /v1/sessions Generate token: POST /v1/sessions/{session_id}/tokens Use in header: Authorization: Bearer <token> E2E Testing with Playwright Install @clerk/testing for automatic Testing Token management: npm install -D @clerk/testing Global Setup ( global.setup.ts ): import { clerkSetup } from '@clerk/testing/playwright' import { test as setup } from '@playwright/test' setup ( 'global setup' , async ({}) => { await clerkSetup () }) Test File ( auth.spec.ts ): import { setupClerkTestingToken } from '@clerk/testing/playwright' import { test } from '@playwright/test' test ( 'sign up' , async ({ page }) => { await setupClerkTestingToken ({ page }) await page. goto ( '/sign-up' ) await page. fill ( 'input[name=\"emailAddress\"]' , 'test+clerk_test@example.com' ) await page. fill ( 'input[name=\"password\"]' , 'TestPassword123!' ) await page. click ( 'button[type=\"submit\"]' ) // Verify with fixed OTP await page. fill ( 'input[name=\"code\"]' , '424242' ) await page. click ( 'button[type=\"submit\"]' ) await expect (page). toHaveURL ( '/dashboard' ) }) Official Docs : https://clerk.com/docs/guides/development/testing/overview Known Issues Prevention This skill prevents 11 documented issues : Issue #1: Missing Clerk Secret Key Error : \"Missing Clerk Secret Key or API Key\" Source : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77620604 Prevention : Always set in .env.local or via wrangler secret put Issue #2: API Key → Secret Key Migration Error : \"apiKey is deprecated, use secretKey\" Source : https://clerk.com/docs/upgrade-guides/core-2/backend Prevention : Replace apiKey with secretKey in all calls Issue #3: JWKS Cache Race Condition Error : \"No JWK available\" Source : https://github.com/clerk/javascript/blob/main/packages/backend/CHANGELOG.md Prevention : Use @clerk/backend@2.17.2 or later (fixed) Issue #4: Missing authorizedParties (CSRF) Error : No error, but CSRF vulnerability Source : https://clerk.com/docs/reference/backend/verify-token Prevention : Always set authorizedParties: ['https://yourdomain.com'] Issue #5: Import Path Changes (Core 2) Error : \"Cannot find module\" Source : https://clerk.com/docs/upgrade-guides/core-2/backend Prevention : Update import paths for Core 2 Issue #6: JWT Size Limit Exceeded Error : Token exceeds size limit Source : https://clerk.com/docs/backend-requests/making/custom-session-token Prevention : Keep custom claims under 1.2KB Issue #7: Deprecated API Version v1 Error : \"API version v1 is deprecated\" Source : https://clerk.com/docs/upgrade-guides/core-2/backend Prevention : Use latest SDK versions (API v2025-11-10) Issue #8: ClerkProvider JSX Component Error",
