SUPABASE SERVER RC.63 SHIPS AUTH FIX, STORAGE IMPROVES ERROR CLARITY

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Supabase

Supabase shipped server-v1.1.0-rc.63 with a critical auth fix that unblocks the JS SDK's dual-mode token handling, while storage v1.58.20 cuts through database error noise to surface the real culprits.

The server auth layer was rejecting `sb_`-prefixed tokens in user mode before falling through to secret/publishable verification [1], a breaking change for any SDK using combined auth configs. RC.63 patches this by treating `sb_` tokens as not-applicable in user mode, letting the credential chain complete [2]. That fix ships alongside a pnpm 11.1.2 bump that resolves a critical missing-time dependency bug [5]. On the storage side, v1.58.20 [4] tackles an underreported problem: schema mismatch errors were all blamed on out-of-sync migrations, when user-created triggers and RLS policies were often the real culprits [3]. The new error handling surfaces trigger/RLS details so operators can actually debug instead of chasing false positives. The main supabase/supabase repo is in refactoring mode, finishing the Tailwind v4 migration by removing @radix-ui/colors and the shadcn component suffixes [6][7][8]. Meanwhile, supavisor's upgrade test script now captures BEAM PIDs directly instead of relying on fragile pgrep calls, making test infrastructure more reliable [9].
