fix(shared): exclude server runtimes from the worker navigator fallback

[jacekradko]

Follow-up to #8827. While reviewing it we checked how the new worker-scope navigator fallback behaves on server runtimes with worker-like globals. Running the probe in real workerd (via miniflare, old and current compatibility dates) showed Cloudflare Workers expose the WorkerGlobalScope constructor but self instanceof WorkerGlobalScope evaluates to false, so the merged gate excludes them today only through that quirk of workerd's prototype chain. If workerd ever aligns with the spec (where ServiceWorkerGlobalScope inherits from WorkerGlobalScope), CF would pass the gate, and since it implements no navigator.onLine, isBrowserOnline would default to true.

Server worker runtimes self-identify in navigator.userAgent (Cloudflare-Workers, Node.js/24, Deno/2.5.0, Bun/1.3.9), so the fallback now rejects those before returning a worker navigator. Browser web/service workers (the MV3 case #8827 fixed) are unaffected; tests cover both today's workerd shape and a simulated spec-compliant one.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Bug Fixes

• Fixed server-side worker environments (Cloudflare Workers, Node.js, Deno, Bun) from being incorrectly identified as valid browsers in runtime validation checks.

Tests

• Added test coverage for browser detection in worker-like environments to verify server runtimes are properly excluded.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR tightens browser detection in @clerk/shared by preventing server-side worker environments from incorrectly passing as valid browsers. A new serverRuntimeUserAgentRegex pattern identifies server runtimes via navigator.userAgent, and getNavigator() now rejects those identifiers. Tests validate the exclusion for Cloudflare Workers, Node.js, Deno, and Bun runtimes.

Changes

Server-runtime exclusion from browser detection

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Server runtime detection pattern and implementation packages/shared/src/browser.ts	Introduces serverRuntimeUserAgentRegex constant documenting worker-like server runtimes (Cloudflare-Workers, Node.js, Deno, Bun) and extends getNavigator() to return null when self.navigator.userAgent matches a server runtime identifier, preventing those environments from being treated as valid browsers.
Test validation for browser and online detection packages/shared/src/__tests__/browser.spec.ts	Extends isValidBrowser() test coverage with parameterized cases for server-runtime user agents, an explicit Cloudflare-Workers test, and a workerd edge case; adds isValidBrowserOnline() test asserting false for server-runtime workers where navigator.onLine is undefined.
Release documentation .changeset/shared-worker-navigator-server-runtimes.md	Documents patch-level change to @clerk/shared describing the navigator fallback exclusion of self-identified server runtimes.

Follow-up to #8827. While reviewing it we checked how the new worker-scope navigator fallback behaves on server runtimes with worker-like globals. Running the probe in real workerd (via miniflare, old and current compatibility dates) showed Cloudflare Workers expose the WorkerGlobalScope constructor but self instanceof WorkerGlobalScope evaluates to false, so the merged gate excludes them today only through that quirk of workerd's prototype chain. If workerd ever aligns with the spec (where ServiceWorkerGlobalScope inherits from WorkerGlobalScope), CF would pass the gate, and since it implements no navigator.onLine, isBrowserOnline would default to true.

Server worker runtimes self-identify in navigator.userAgent (Cloudflare-Workers, Node.js/24, Deno/2.5.0, Bun/1.3.9), so the fallback now rejects those before returning a worker navigator.

Changes

Server-runtime exclusion from browser detection

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Server runtime detection pattern and implementation packages/shared/src/browser.ts	Introduces serverRuntimeUserAgentRegex constant documenting worker-like server runtimes (Cloudflare-Workers, Node.js, Deno, Bun) and extends getNavigator() to return null when self.navigator.userAgent matches a server runtime identifier, preventing those environments from being treated as valid browsers.
Test validation for browser and online detection packages/shared/src/__tests__/browser.spec.ts	Extends isValidBrowser() test coverage with parameterized cases for server-runtime user agents, an explicit Cloudflare-Workers test, and a workerd edge case; adds isValidBrowserOnline() test asserting false for server-runtime workers where navigator.onLine is undefined.
Release documentation .changeset/shared-worker-navigator-server-runtimes.md	Documents patch-level change to @clerk/shared describing the navigator fallback exclusion of self-identified server runtimes.

Good catch

[jacekradko]

Follow-up to #8827. While reviewing it we checked how the new worker-scope navigator fallback behaves on server runtimes with worker-like globals. Running the probe in real workerd (via miniflare, old and current compatibility dates) showed Cloudflare Workers expose the WorkerGlobalScope constructor but self instanceof WorkerGlobalScope evaluates to false, so the merged gate excludes them today only through that quirk of workerd's prototype chain. If workerd ever aligns with the spec (where ServiceWorkerGlobalScope inherits from WorkerGlobalScope), CF would pass the gate, and since it implements no navigator.onLine, isBrowserOnline would default to true.

Server worker runtimes self-identify in navigator.userAgent (Cloudflare-Workers, Node.js/24, Deno/2.5.0, Bun/1.3.9), so the fallback now rejects those before returning a worker navigator. Browser web/service workers (the MV3 case #8827 fixed) are unaffected; tests cover both today's workerd shape and a simulated spec-compliant one.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Bug Fixes

• Fixed server-side worker environments (Cloudflare Workers, Node.js, Deno, Bun) from being incorrectly identified as valid browsers in runtime validation checks.

Tests

• Added test coverage for browser detection in worker-like environments to verify server runtimes are properly excluded.

Break Check could not snapshot 1 subpath; the diff below excludes them.

• @clerk/astro ./env: ambient declaration file (no top-level import or export): API Extractor can only analyze module entry points, so this global-augmentation surface cannot be snapshotted; add the subpath to ignoreSubpaths to acknowledge it (API Extractor: Unable to determine module for: /home/runner/_work/javascript/javascript/packages/astro/env.d.ts)
