No Custom Fetch/Transport Seam for better-auth Infra HTTP Clients
Developers self-hosting the better-auth infra plugin cannot supply a custom fetch implementation for its internal apiUrl and kvUrl HTTP clients, forcing JWKS verification requests over the network even when the same key set already exists in-process. The underlying option types and connection resolver provide no way to pass through a custom transport, mirroring the same limitation reported for a sibling plugin.

Similar Problems
surfaced semanticallyBetter Auth Rate Limiting Incompatible with Cloudflare Edge Storage
Better Auth's rate limiting system assumes simple key-value storage patterns, making it incompatible with strongly consistent or coordination-based backends like Cloudflare Durable Objects. Developers building on edge runtimes (Cloudflare Workers) cannot implement reliable strict rate limiting because the library offers no pluggable storage adapter interface for this layer. This is a specific gap in one open-source library affecting a niche but growing segment of edge-deployed applications.
Custom auth query hook lacks revalidation and caching features
A custom auth query implementation lacks features like revalidation on focus, deduplication, and caching that mature query libraries provide.
AI Provider Plugins Lack Support for Region-Locked Dual-Host Endpoints
AI-provider integration plugins often hardcode a single regional API host, so a valid key issued for one region (such as mainland China vs. international) gets rejected as invalid when used against the other host, with no indication that endpoint mismatch, not the key, is the cause. This creates confusing failures for developers integrating vendors that operate separate regional account systems.
On-demand auth after message submission creates poor user experience
On-demand authentication prompting users to log in after submitting a message creates poor UX compared to eager auth.
OAuth Popup Auth Fails Due to Browser Popup Blockers
OAuth popup-based authentication fails when browsers block popups or popups lose focus. Redirect-based flow is more reliable but not available as option.
