Description

The expo-native fixture can now be driven from launch inputs, so an agent can open a specific screen, sign in with a ticket, and read auth state without tapping through the app. This is the Expo host side of the verify contract that clerk-ios (clerk/clerk-ios#623) and clerk-android already follow. A later PR adds the @clerk/expo verify skill on top of it.

What changes for whoever launches the fixture:

  • A local Expo module, modules/verify-launch-config, reads verify* launch arguments on iOS (-verifyScreen auth) and launch intent string extras on Android (--es verifyScreen auth). The inputs are verifyPublishableKey, verifyRunId, verifyStorageScope, verifyLaunchId, verifyScreen, verifyAuthMode, verifySignInTicket, and verifyLogLevel.
  • With no verify* input, the fixture renders exactly as before, with the same testIDs. The Maestro flows in expo-native-build.yml launch it with no arguments.
  • verifyScreen picks the screen: home (the existing fixture, default), auth (non-dismissible inline AuthView), nativeAuth (dismissible AuthView, back to home on dismiss), userButton, userProfile, customSignIn and customSignUp (email code flows on useSignIn and useSignUp), sso (Google through useSSO), and tokenCache. An unknown value shows home and reports lastError.code unknown-screen.
  • verifySignInTicket signs in with the ticket strategy through useSignIn once Clerk loads, before the screen renders.
  • verifyStorageScope clears stored Clerk state when the scope differs from the last launch. On iOS that means every generic-password keychain item the fixture owns, not only Clerk's, plus the identifier AuthView remembers in UserDefaults (authStartIdentifier, authStartPhoneNumber, authStartPhoneNumberFieldIsActive, clerk_last_used_identifier_type). On Android it means the clerk_preferences and SecureStore preferences, which already hold the remembered identifier. Without the UserDefaults part, a new scope showed the previous run's email, so a repeat run of an AuthView sign-in spec found two matches for the identifier field. A new scope starts signed out and the same scope keeps its session. @clerk/expo reads its keychain service from Info.plist, so a per-scope service is not available to the host.
  • verifyLogLevel debug logs each request as [verify:network] <method> <url without query> <status>.
  • A footer with testID verify.state shows verify plus one line of JSON with sorted keys and explicit nulls. The same JSON is logged as [verify] ... on every change. The fields match the iOS host, plus extra.authViewLoaded and extra.authFlowComplete from useAuthViewState.
  • A malformed publishable key renders an error screen with environmentLoaded: false and lastError.code invalid_publishable_key instead of throwing.

Build changes:

  • metro.config.js watches the monorepo and resolves the fixture's own dependencies first, but only when node_modules/@clerk/expo links to this repo's packages/expo. A Debug dev client then picks up pnpm --filter @clerk/expo dev output after a Metro reload. On Android, start it with am start -n com.clerk.exponativebuildfixture/.MainActivity -d 'exp+clerk-expo-native-build-fixture://expo-development-client/?url=...' --es .... A launch that adds -a MAIN -c LAUNCHER makes expo-dev-launcher fail to load the project. Tarball installs, as in CI, get the default Metro config.
  • package.sdk-57.json adds expo-build-properties and requires expo 57.0.23 or newer. app.config.js turns on ios.enableSceneSupport for SDK 57 only. Without it, an Xcode 27 build traps at launch in UIKit's scene-lifecycle check. SDK 54 and 55 builds see the same config as before.
  • expo-dev-client is not added to package.sdk-57.json. The e2e jobs leave it out on purpose, so a verify build installs it the same way the build-only jobs do.

The fixture reads verifyPublishableKey, verifyRunId, verifyStorageScope,
verifyLaunchId, verifyScreen, verifyAuthMode, verifySignInTicket, and
verifyLogLevel from launch arguments (iOS) or launch intent extras
(Android) through a local Expo module. With any of them present it routes
to the requested screen, signs in with a ticket first, and renders a
verify.state footer. Without them the existing fixture renders unchanged.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Expo native fixture adds a verification-launch path backed by Android and iOS modules that read launch inputs and apply storage scopes. The fixture parses launch settings, validates publishable keys, tracks verification state, and renders routed authentication and account screens. The app entry point selects the verification host when launch inputs are present. Expo and Metro configuration and the SDK 57 fixture dependencies are also updated.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7854e

SDK 57 configurations that omit the optional plugins field can fail to load, and a SecureStore cleanup failure can leave the token-cache verification screen stuck at “checking.” These are bounded cases; the change is mergeable with owner awareness of both.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Handle a rejected getToken promise.

If tokenCache.getToken rejects, the promise rejection is unhandled. The footer then shows checking indefinitely and gives no failure signal. Add a rejection handler that records a terminal state.

Proposed fix
-    void tokenCache?.getToken(clientTokenKey).then(token => setStored(Boolean(token)));
+    void tokenCache
+      ?.getToken(clientTokenKey)
+      .then(token => setStored(Boolean(token)), () => setStored(false));

Leaving this as is. The tokenCache from @clerk/expo/token-cache catches SecureStore.getItemAsync failures, deletes the item, and resolves null, so getToken does not reject.

@mikepitre Thanks for the clarification. I checked packages/expo/src/token-cache/index.ts at d1ac3f2.

getToken catches read failures and returns null if deletion succeeds. One caveat remains: Line 26 awaits SecureStore.deleteItemAsync without another catch, so a deletion failure can still reject getToken.

I respect your decision to leave this unchanged.

Learning: In the Expo SDK's `packages/expo/src/token-cache/index.ts`, the token cache exported through `clerk/expo/token-cache` catches `SecureStore.getItemAsync` failures, awaits deletion of the item, and returns `null` when deletion succeeds. Do not flag read failures alone as unhandled rejections. The cleanup operation can still propagate a rejection if `SecureStore.deleteItemAsync` fails.

… RN modal

The footer cannot be read under an RN Modal, and the native AuthView already
shows as a sheet when it is dismissible. Dismissing it returns to home.

Deleting every shared preferences file also reset the dev menu onboarding,
so each new scope reopened it. The footer also gets the same bottom inset on
Android, where it sat under the gesture bar.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
AuthView keeps the typed identifier and the last-used identifier type in
UserDefaults, so a new storage scope still showed the previous run's email.
Android already drops them with clerk_preferences.
