Why

This is the second half of architecture review finding #10: "Routing is split across AuthState, three strategy-dispatch screens, self-rerouting ViewModels, eight direct navigateTo calls and three copies of the session-task mapping. [...] replace routing with one pure function from SignIn | SignUp | Session to a navigation command."

Stacked on #1032 (ViewModel stores). Review that one first.

Scope

  • New auth/AuthRouting.kt:
    • authNavigationCommand(AuthRoutingInput, AuthRoutingContext): AuthNavigationCommand is a pure function. The input is a SignInStep, a SignUpStep, a SessionStep (a session task finished) or a PendingSessionTask (the session changed under the flow). The command is None, ResetToRoot, Push, ShowSessionTask, ReplaceSessionTask or CompleteAuth. Values from outside the attempt are passed in explicitly through AuthRoutingContext: forced organization selection, the last submitted identifier, and a startingFirstFactor seam, since the API extension reads Clerk.environment.
    • sessionTaskDestination(SessionTaskKey) is now the only session-task mapping. It replaces postAuthCompletionAction/PostAuthCompletionAction, the handleSessionTaskCompletion when, and pendingSessionTaskDestination in AuthView. satisfiesSessionTask and isSessionTaskDestination sit next to it.
    • firstFactorScreen / secondFactorScreen / clientTrustScreen map a typed Strategy (Factor.strategyType, from feat(api): add typed Strategy and migrate strategy comparisons #1025) to a SignInFactorScreen. SignInFactorOneView, SignInFactorTwoView and SignInClientTrustView now just render the screen they are given. The tables match the when blocks those views have on main. The sign-up email-link check uses SignUp.isEmailLinkVerificationSupported, as main does.
  • AuthState keeps its call surface (setToStepForStatus(signIn|signUp), now with handleSessionTaskCompletion as a member) but only builds the context and applies the command (navigate). About 150 lines of status handling are gone from it.
  • AuthView's pending-session-task observer asks the same function. The test-only shouldRouteToSessionTaskMfa is removed.
  • The six "use another method" taps go through AuthState.navigateToAlternativeMethods(factor, isSecondFactor) instead of each screen building the destination.

Not changed, deliberately:

  • The remaining direct navigateTo calls are user intents, not status routing: forgot password, the forgot-password factor list, and the organization creation from the chooser.
  • The self-rerouting branch in SignUpCodeViewModel.prepare (email-link strategy → Success.SignUp) is only reachable when the public SignUpCodeView is hosted outside the prebuilt flow, because routing never sends an email-link sign-up to the code screen. I left it for those hosts.

Blast Radius

Testing

  • ./gradlew spotlessCheck detekt :source:api:detektDebug :source:ui:detektDebug :source:telemetry:detektDebug :source:api:lint :source:ui:lint apiCheck :source:ui:testDebugUnitTest: pass (539 UI tests).
  • New AuthRoutingTest (table-driven):
    • every SignIn.Status, including with and without a usable factor, and the last-submitted-identifier fallback;
    • every SignUp.Status, plus each collect field, email code vs. email link, phone, a missing address or number, an unsupported field, and nothing left to do;
    • completion (shared by sign-in and sign-up) for each session task, an unresolved created session, forced organization selection, task-over-forced-organization priority, and plain completion;
    • session-task completion;
    • the full SessionTaskKey → destination map;
    • the first-factor, second-factor and client-trust tables, keyed by typed Strategy values, including an OAuth strategy and an unknown one;
    • an UNKNOWN task at completion pushes "Get help" (fails if routed through ShowSessionTask).
  • AuthViewForceMfaRoutingTest now runs against the pending-task input. AuthStateSessionTaskRoutingTest adds tests for command application: replacing a finished task, completing without the enrollment prompt, and not double-pushing a session task. The postAuthCompletionAction cases in AuthStateForceMfaTest became rows in the table.
  • ./gradlew :source:ui:verifyPaparazziDebug: 21 failures, the same 21 tests that fail on main locally (I compared both runs; they are environment-wide image diffs). No snapshot changes come from this PR, and nothing was re-recorded.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved sign-in and sign-up navigation for missing information, verification steps, alternative authentication methods, and pending session tasks.
    • Better handles organization selection and MFA setup when required, and avoids duplicate session-task screens.
    • Updated authentication method screens to direct unsupported methods to help.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Authentication route selection now produces commands for sign-in, sign-up, session tasks, and post-auth outcomes. AuthState and AuthView apply those commands. Sign-in views use shared factor-screen selection and delegate alternative-method navigation to AuthState.

AuthState applies routing commands, including root reset, push, session-task route deduplication or replacement, and auth completion. AuthView uses the shared route selection for pending tasks and returns to the auth start when no session remains on specified destinations. Tests cover pending-task routing and back-stack behavior.
Factor screens and alternative-method navigation
source/ui/src/main/java/com/clerk/ui/auth/AuthRouting.kt, source/ui/src/main/java/com/clerk/ui/signin/*
Sign-in views use shared first-factor, second-factor, and client-trust screen selection. Alternative-method actions call AuthState instead of constructing destinations directly.

Routing was split across AuthState's status handlers, the session-task
completion extension, AuthView's pending-task observer (three copies of the
session-task mapping), three strategy-dispatch screens and direct
navigateTo calls.

- authNavigationCommand maps a SignIn, SignUp or Session step to an
  AuthNavigationCommand; AuthState only applies commands to the back stack.
- sessionTaskDestination is the single session-task mapping.
- firstFactorScreen / secondFactorScreen / clientTrustScreen hold the factor
  screen dispatch, so every routing strategy comparison lives in AuthRouting.kt.
- "Use another method" goes through AuthState.navigateToAlternativeMethods.
- Table-driven tests cover every status, strategy and task combination.
Names the MFA-gated created-session case instead of explaining it inline.

Rename the test to match its assertion.

The new name says resolveCorrespondingSession "does not fallback". Line 85 asserts assertEquals(fallback, resolved), so the test checks that the fallback is used. A reader can take the name as the expected contract and "fix" the code to match it. Rename the test to describe the fallback behavior.
