AGENTS.md files for Jazz starter templates

I added an AGENTS.md file to all nine starter templates, directing AI coding agents to fetch live Jazz documentation rather than relying on their training data. This helps agents give more accurate and up-to-date advice when working in Jazz projects.

a schema hash CLI command

I added a jazz-tools schema hash command that prints the short hash of your current schema.ts file locally, without hitting the server or writing a snapshot. Handy for checking if your local schema matches what's deployed.

a docs URL update in starter AGENTS.md files

I replaced the temporary jazz2-docs.vercel.app URLs with the permanent jazz.tools domain across all starter AGENTS.md files.

React SPA starter variants and create-jazz provisioning

I added three plain-Vite React starters alongside the existing Next.js/SvelteKit ones, and moved the Jazz Cloud provisioning step into the create-jazz CLI itself with a --hosting flag so you can set up hosting during scaffolding.

ephemeral storage fallback for Firefox private browsing

I added a fallback so Jazz apps work in Firefox private browsing mode. When the browser blocks access to the Origin Private File System (OPFS) with a SecurityError, the app now transparently falls back to in-memory storage instead of crashing.

deploy-time warnings for missing permission policies

I added schema validation warnings to jazz-tools deploy that flag tables without explicit permission policies. The warnings are informational only and don't block the deploy, but they help catch accidental permission gaps before they reach production.

an interactive app ID generation widget for the docs

I added an interactive widget to the quickstart docs that generates an app ID, admin secret, and backend secret from the hosted Jazz Cloud service. It automatically substitutes the generated values into the code examples on the page.

the create-jazz CLI scaffolder

I built an interactive CLI scaffolder so you can run npm create jazz to bootstrap a new project. It prompts for your framework choice and auth mode, then fetches the right starter template, resolves dependencies, and initialises git.

passphrase and passkey backup/restore UI for starters

I added an AuthBackup component to four local-first starter templates with recovery phrase and passkey backup/restore support. This gives users a way to recover their account if they lose their device.

experimental clock sync for clients with drifting system clocks

I added an optional feature that fixes a tricky timing problem. When a user's device clock is slightly wrong (drifting), it can cause data to be timestamped incorrectly. This feature uses the existing ping messages between the client and server to estimate how far off the clock is, and quietly corrects timestamps so they're accurate.

an alphaTab dependency update and Vite integration

I updated the alphaTab music notation library to its latest version and added a Vite-based sample project. alphaTab is a library for rendering and playing guitar tablature and sheet music in the browser.

pruned tests in the moon-lander example

I deleted 6 test files (about 2,450 lines) from the moon-lander-react example that weren't actually exercising Jazz's sync capabilities. I kept the 4 genuine cross-client sync tests that test what the example is really about.

a module type declaration fix for the jazz-wasm package

I added "type": "module" to the jazz-wasm package.json. Without it, running the CLI via npx or bunx would fail with an ERR_REQUIRE_CYCLE_MODULE error because Node.js was treating the ES module output as CommonJS.

a fix for worker URL resolution in bundlers

I switched from dynamic runtime URL resolution to a static new URL(...) pattern for the web worker bootstrap. This lets bundlers like Vite, webpack, and Next.js/Turbopack detect and co-bundle the worker and WASM files correctly.

a SvelteKit Vite plugin for Jazz

I built a new Vite plugin for SvelteKit projects that manages the Jazz dev-server lifecycle automatically. It supports embedded server mode, connecting to an external URL, or reading the config from environment variables.

a dedicated docs section for read durability tiers

I promoted read durability from a footnote to its own top-level section on the reading/queries page, with tier definitions, per-tier guidance, and reference material so developers can choose the right durability level for their use case.

changeset entries documenting two bug fixes

I added changeset entries to document two bug fixes — one for a hang when loading data with mismatched schemas during migrations, and one for a race condition in Better Auth that was logging users out. Changesets are how Jazz tracks what changed between versions, so these make sure the fixes get properly noted in the changelog.

a fix for a hang in createJazzContext when schema migrations fail

If your app's migration tried to load a piece of data whose shape didn't match any of the allowed schema variants, Jazz would silently get stuck forever instead of telling you what had gone wrong. The error was being thrown inside an internal loop that swallowed it, so the underlying promise never settled. I added a dedicated error type for this case and caught it in the right place, so loads now fail cleanly as "unavailable" rather than hanging your app.

a fix for a Better Auth race condition

When signing in with Better Auth, a slow /get-session request could arrive after the user had already successfully signed in via a different flow. Because the slow response said "no session", it would log the user straight back out again. I added a little counter that increments each time the user authenticates, and we attach it as a header to session requests -- if a stale response comes back with an old counter value, we now know to ignore it.

Rust examples for the files-and-blobs docs page

I added Rust code tabs (create, load, delete) to the files-and-blobs documentation page, matching the TypeScript/Rust tab pattern used across the rest of the docs.
