feat(ui,shared,localizations): dedicated screen for a blocked request - #9600
Conversation
A blocked sign-in or sign-up is terminal — there is no field to correct and no retry that helps — but it currently renders in the same small inline error slot as "incorrect password", with nothing the user can act on or quote. It now replaces the card. The screen shows a short reference for the request so the end user can quote it to support, and renders the application's own title, description and https link when it supplies them. - shared: `trace_id`, `title`, `description`, `link_url` and `link_text` on the API error meta, parsed to camelCase alongside the existing fields. - ui: ActionBlockedCard plus a `useActionBlocked` hook. The hook wraps `card.setError`, which is where every error in these flows already funnels, so both the submit path and the OAuth-callback path are covered without either knowing about it. - ui: new appearance descriptors and an `actionBlocked` flow part. - localizations: `actionBlocked.title`, `.subtitle` and `.traceIdLabel` as the fallbacks used when the application supplies no wording of its own. Additive and degrades safely: the error's code, message and long_message are unchanged, so an older client is unaffected, and a response carrying no meta renders exactly the inline error it did before. The application-supplied text is rendered as text nodes, never as markup, and only `https` links become an href — the URL is validated before it is sent, and checked again here before it reaches the DOM. Verified: `pnpm --filter @clerk/ui type-check` reports no errors in any changed file, and `@clerk/shared` and `@clerk/localizations` build clean. 17 new tests pass, covering the meta parsing and every rejected URL scheme. The 24 failing test files and the type errors that remain are all under `src/mosaic/**`, which this change does not touch — they fail on an unbuilt `@clerk/headless`.
errorToJSON has its own exhaustive meta field list and backs Verification.__internal_toSnapshot, so on the SSR/hydration path a verification error lost the reference and the application's message. The blocked screen then degraded to its generic wording with nothing saying why — and that is the OAuth and SAML path, one of the two the screen is wired for. Both directions of the meta mapping are hand-maintained lists, so a field added to one and not the other is dropped silently. Added a round-trip test that fails if either side stops carrying them; verified it fails when the mapping is removed, so it is a real check and not a passing no-op.

Summary
@clerk/sharedCurrent version: 4.35.0 Subpath
|
CI's "Verify localizations are generated" step failed: adding a key to en-US requires regenerating all 48 locale files, which was not obvious from the local build (both @clerk/localizations and @clerk/shared build clean without it). Untranslated locales get `undefined` and fall back to en-US at runtime, which is the existing pattern for a newly added key.
…creen codex review found the gap: when a challenge is submitted and the request is then blocked, useProtectCheckRunner routes the error through handleError(..., card.setError). The interception lived only in the two start components, so that card rendered an inline error with a RETRY button — for something that cannot succeed. Moved detection into the shared card state, where every error in these flows already funnels. It happens before translateError, which flattens the error to a string and discards the meta the screen is built from. Consequences: - The four cards that can show the screen now read `card.blockedDetails`; the per-component hook is gone, and a card that wants the screen is one guard. - The pure helpers moved to utils/actionBlocked.ts so card state can use them without importing the card and creating a cycle. New tests cover the central predicate specifically, because a false positive there would replace a correctable form error with a dead end: it fires only on action_blocked, only with details, and ignores strings, numbers, null and undefined. 21 tests pass; type-check clean across every file this touches.

Route restored blocked errors through blocked-request detection.
CardStateProvider passes window.Clerk.__internal_last_error directly to translateError during initialization and route changes. For a fraud_action_blocked error with metadata, state.blockedDetails remains unset and the translated value is stored as state.error, so the flow can skip ActionBlockedCard and show retry UI. Apply actionBlockedDetailsFrom before translation and clear error when details exist.

Two additions the API can now send, both for an application that wants to render its own screen rather than the built-in one: - `kind` — a tag naming why the request was blocked, e.g. `vpn_detected`. - `data` — arbitrary scalars the application's owner attached. Neither is RENDERED. They are read off the meta, carried through the snapshot round trip, and exposed on the error for an application to switch on. Rendering `data` would put somebody's internal keys in front of an end user, which is the opposite of what it is for. A blocked request carrying only a kind, or only data, now counts as something to show — that is precisely the integration this serves, and treating it as empty would have fallen back to the inline error for exactly those applications. Both directions of the meta mapping are hand-maintained lists, so both were updated together and the round-trip spec covers the new fields. Verified: 24 ui predicate tests and 3 shared round-trip tests pass; type-check clean on every file this touches; @clerk/shared and @clerk/localizations build.
…onfigured The changeset claimed they were unchanged. That was true when the wording lived only on `meta`; it stopped being true once the owner's title and description started driving them, which is what makes a client that renders only those show the configured wording rather than the generic sentence.

blockedDetails was set and never cleared, so once a card had shown the blocked
screen it could not show anything else.
That is worse than it sounds, because clearing an error is how these flows
START one: handleClerkApiError calls setGlobalError(undefined) before setting
the real error, and the protect-check runner calls card.setError(''). Both
cleared `error` and left `blockedDetails` in place — so after any block, the
next genuine error on that card would have been invisible behind a terminal
screen the user could not leave.
setError now owns both fields, which is the invariant that was missing: a
blocked error sets the screen, and anything else clears it.
Found while investigating the CI failures. It is NOT their cause — those are
`Too many requests` from the shared test backend, which is also failing
unrelated branches — but it is a real defect and nothing would have caught it.
The new tests would: verified they fail when the clear is removed.
`simple-import-sort` is an error rather than a warning in this package, so the unsorted specifier failed `@clerk/ui#lint` and with it Static analysis. Applied by eslint --fix and prettier rather than by hand.

I noticed the latest changes removes a ton of comments, maybe because of the new repo rule we added that AI shouldn't add comments if we don't ask for it?
I do think a lot of the original comments in this PR were hard to read, but there were quite a few I liked too, like this one.
This is not a call to action to go bring a bunch of comments back, just a meta-commentary on our discussion last week that it's hard to find the right balance, not sure the never make comments agent rule benefits us.

Description
When a sign-in or sign-up request is blocked,
<SignIn />and<SignUp />now replace the form with a dedicated screen, instead of showing one generic sentence in the same inline slot that carries "incorrect password". A block is terminal (there is no field to correct and no retry that helps), so the screen shows a short reference the user can quote to support, plus the application's own title, description and help link when the API sends them.Everything above the reference comes from the application's configuration and is optional. Without it the screen uses its own wording (
actionBlocked.titleandactionBlocked.subtitle).The contract. The API may include these on an
action_blockederror'smeta. All are optional, and they are parsed to camelCase alongside the existing meta fields.trace_idtitledescriptionlink_urlhttpsURL for help.link_textkinddatakindanddataare carried, never displayed. They are there so a custom flow can render its own UI:Where the screen appears. It is opt-in per card. Card state keeps the error it was given next to the translated message (
card.rawError), and the cards that render the screen read the details from it:Every other card keeps the same inline error it shows today, so no card is ever left without one. A blocked error handed over through
__internal_last_errorgets the screen as well, and sign-up start checks for a block before its restricted-access screen. Later steps in a flow can also return a blocked error; those cards keep their inline error for now and can opt in separately.Compatibility. Additive. The error's
codeis unchanged. A response without the new details renders the same inline error as before, since the screen is feature-detected off the meta and never version-gated, and so does a newer@clerk/uirunning against an older@clerk/clerk-js(which does not parse the new fields).errorToJSONcarries the fields too, so they survive the verification snapshot used on the SSR/hydration path.Customization. New

The title, description and link are written by the application's owner and rendered in an end user's browser. The text is rendered as text nodes, never as markup. Only
httpslinks become anhref(checked here as well as before the API sends them), a link that fails is dropped while the rest of the screen still renders, and the link getstarget="_blank"andrel="noopener noreferrer".Checklist
