Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Better Auth — Best Practices
Guidance for Better Auth server and client setup, database adapter configuration, session management, plugin integration, and environment variable handling.
## When to Apply
- Setting up a Better Auth server with Drizzle or Prisma adapter
- Adding OAuth providers like Google alongside email/password login
- Configuring session storage with Redis as secondary storage
- Wiring in plugins like twoFactor or magicLink with correct import paths
- Mapping ORM model names to database tables without breaking migrations
## Quick Reference
**Always consult better-auth.com/docs for code examples and latest API.**
## Setup Workflow
1. Install: `npm install better-auth`
2. Set env vars: `BETTER_AUTH_SECRET` and `BETTER_AUTH_URL`
3. Create `auth.ts` with database + config
4. Create route handler for your framework
5. Run `npx @better-auth/cli@latest migrate`
6. Verify: call `GET /api/auth/ok` — should return `{ status: "ok" }`
## Environment Variables
- `BETTER_AUTH_SECRET` — Encryption secret (min 32 chars). Generate: `openssl rand -base64 32`
- `BETTER_AUTH_URL` — Base URL (e.g., `https://example.com`)

How to install
mdr add tekkiiiii/the-agency/better-auth-best-practices@sha256:19dd42c2595deb2bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260508.9e8707b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
