Summary

  • Removes the duplicate finishInit() from loadHeadlessClerk and uses the shared replayInterceptedInvocations path instead
  • Eliminates the manual state emission workaround that was only needed because the headless path had its own initialization logic
  • Removes the now-unused #initialized field

This addresses @brkalow's feedback to separate "how to get a Clerk instance" (bring your own constructor vs inject scripts) from "what to do after it's loaded" (shared wiring logic).

Before:loadHeadlessClerk had its own finishInit() that duplicated parts of replayInterceptedInvocations but was missing status/queryClientStatus listener replay.

After:loadHeadlessClerk only handles Clerk construction + clerk.load(), then hands off to the shared replayInterceptedInvocations path — same as the browser flow.

Test plan

  • Verify Expo native sign-in/sign-up flows still work (headless path)
  • Verify Next.js/React browser flows are unaffected (getEntryChunks path)
  • Verify chrome-extension with syncHost still works (getEntryChunks path)

Remove the duplicate finishInit() from loadHeadlessClerk and use the
shared replayInterceptedInvocations path instead. This ensures both
browser and headless paths share the same post-load wiring logic,
including status/queryClientStatus listener replay that was previously
missing from the headless path.
The manual state emission workaround in finishInit is no longer needed
since replayInterceptedInvocations properly wires up addListener which
handles state propagation through clerk-js.
