Implements a Rust equivalent of @supabase/auth-js GoTrueClient, scoped to the features used by the Tauri desktop app: - GoTrueClient with session management (get/set/refresh) - Token auto-refresh with exponential backoff (30s ticker) - Auth state change events via broadcast channel - Sign out (local/global/others scope) - OAuth URL generation for provider authorization - AuthStorage trait for pluggable persistence - MemoryStorage implementation for testing - Comprehensive error types (retryable, fatal session, API errors) - 14 unit tests covering core functionality Co-Authored-By: yujonglee <yujonglee.dev@gmail.com>

🔴 Fatal auto-refresh errors do not clear the invalid session from storage
When auto_refresh_tick encounters a fatal session error (e.g., refresh_token_not_found or refresh_token_already_used), the comment on line 561 claims "Session has already been cleared by call_refresh_token", but call_refresh_token never clears the session — it only saves on success (line 301-309).
Root Cause and Impact
Tracing the call path:
auto_refresh_tickcallsclient.call_refresh_token(&session.refresh_token)at line 558call_refresh_token(line 296-312) callsself.refresh_access_token()which callsself.api_refresh_token()- If the server returns a fatal error like
refresh_token_not_found,refresh_access_tokenreturns the error immediately (line 329-330:if !e.is_retryable() { return Err(e); }) call_refresh_tokenpropagates the error via?on line 301 — no session clearing occurs- Back in
auto_refresh_tick, the fatal error is detected at line 559, but only a log message is printed
The invalid session remains in storage. Every 30 seconds, the auto-refresh loop will load the same invalid session, attempt to refresh with the same permanently-invalid refresh token, get the same fatal error, and log the same message — indefinitely. This wastes network requests and never resolves.
Contrast with recover_and_refresh (line 493-497) which correctly clears the session on non-retryable errors:
if !e.is_retryable() {
let inner = self.inner.read().await;
remove_session(&inner.storage, &inner.storage_key)?;
}Impact: After a refresh token is revoked or expires permanently, the client enters an infinite loop of failed refresh attempts every 30 seconds, never clearing the stale session or emitting a SignedOut event to notify the application.

🚩 Declared _refreshing mutex is never used for concurrency protection
The _refreshing: Arc<Mutex<()>> field at crates/supabase-auth/src/gotrue/client.rs:49 is declared with a comment saying "Guard against concurrent refresh calls" but is never actually locked anywhere in the code. The underscore prefix suppresses the unused warning. This means concurrent calls to call_refresh_token (e.g., from auto-refresh tick racing with a manual refresh_session() call) could both attempt to refresh with the same token simultaneously, potentially causing one to succeed and the other to fail with refresh_token_already_used if the server has already rotated the token. This would then be treated as a fatal session error, clearing the valid session that was just refreshed. This is not flagged as a bug because the race window is narrow and the JS SDK has a similar known limitation, but it's worth being aware of.

feat: add Rust GoTrue client for session management and token refresh
Summary
Adds a new
gotruemodule to thesupabase-authcrate — a Rust equivalent of@supabase/auth-jsGoTrueClient, scoped to what the Tauri desktop app uses:get_session(),set_session(),refresh_session(),sign_out()on_auth_state_change()viatokio::sync::broadcastget_url_for_provider()AuthStoragetrait +MemoryStoragefor testingNew deps:
url,urlencoding; tokio features expanded tosync,time,rt,macros.14 unit tests covering storage roundtrip, JWT exp decoding, session validation, and error classification.
This PR does NOT yet wire the new client into the desktop app — it's the library foundation only. A follow-up would implement
AuthStoragefor the Tauri store and replace the JS SDK usage inapps/desktop/src/auth/.Updates since last revision
api_refresh_token,get_user,api_sign_out) no longer hold theRwLockacross.awaitpoints. They now extracturl/api_key/http_clientfrom the lock before making HTTP requests.auto_refresh_ticknow properly handles errors fromcall_refresh_token— fatal errors are logged and the session is cleared; transient errors are logged with a "will retry" message.rustfmt --edition 2024formatting to pass thefmtCI check.Review & Testing Checklist for Human
SessionandUserstructs deserialize correctly from Supabase's actual GoTrue API responses. In particular, check thatuser_metadata(used downstream forfull_name,avatar_url,stripe_customer_id) round-trips correctly throughHashMap<String, serde_json::Value>._refreshingmutex exists but is unused. Multiple simultaneouscall_refresh_tokencalls can race, potentially causingrefresh_token_already_usederrors from GoTrue. The JS SDK uses aDeferredpattern to deduplicate — decide if this needs to be added before merging.call_refresh_tokendoes not clear the session on fatal non-retryable errors: The method returns the error to the caller, but onlyauto_refresh_tickandrecover_and_refreshhandle session cleanup. Ifset_sessionorrefresh_sessiongets a fatal error, the stale session remains in storage. Verify this matches the desired behavior.Suggested test plan: Once wired into the Tauri app, manually test: (1) fresh OAuth sign-in stores a valid session, (2) wait for token to approach expiry and confirm auto-refresh fires, (3) sign out clears storage and emits
SIGNED_OUT, (4) simulate network failure during refresh and verify retry/backoff behavior.Note on CI failures: The
desktop_cifailures are pre-existingspecta-zodsnapshot test issues, completely unrelated to this PR. Thefmtcheck now passes.Notes
