…e.initialize SupabaseClient already accepts `isolate:` and tracks ownership so a caller supplied instance is not disposed with the client, but Supabase.initialize did not pass it through, so a supabase_flutter app could not reach it. YAJsonIsolate was also not exported by any supabase package, which made the existing SupabaseClient parameter unusable without depending on the isolate package directly.

Make the tests prove that Supabase uses the supplied isolate.
The current tests do not distinguish isolate forwarding from creating a separate isolate. Exercise a client operation that records use of the supplied isolate.

I don't see the point of this now when the isolate isn't long-lived...?
The export will be done soon though (the other isolate PR was just merged yesterday.

`YAJsonIsolate` was the type the clients named in their public API. That tied them to one implementation, and on web to one that spawns no isolate at all, so the parameter both misnamed what it takes and left no way to process JSON any other way. `YAJsonIsolate` now implements `AsyncJsonCodec`, a four method interface (`decode`, `decodeBytes`, `encode`, `dispose`), and the clients take that interface instead. ### Changes - `yet_another_json_isolate`: new `AsyncJsonCodec` interface, implemented by both the io and the web `YAJsonIsolate`, and exported from the package. - `SupabaseClient`, `PostgrestClient` and `FunctionsClient`: `isolate:` is now `jsonCodec:` and takes an `AsyncJsonCodec`. The same rename runs through `PostgrestBuilder`, `PostgrestQueryBuilder`, `PostgrestRpcBuilder`, `RawPostgrestBuilder`, `SupabaseQueryBuilder` and `SupabaseQuerySchema`. - `postgrest` and `supabase_functions` export the interface, so the parameter is reachable without depending on `yet_another_json_isolate` directly, which the old parameter was not. `supabase` and `supabase_flutter` re-export it in turn. The concrete `YAJsonIsolate` stays unexported, so replacing the default implementation later is not a breaking change for the flagship package. - Ownership is unchanged: a codec passed to a client belongs to the caller and is never disposed by it. A client that was not given one creates the default codec and disposes it with itself. `SupabaseClient` hands its codec to the rest and functions clients it builds, so one codec serves all three. - `MIGRATION.md`: an entry for the rename. - `sdk-compliance.yaml`: the interface registered under `supporting_symbols`. ### Why an interface rather than the concrete type Since #1746 there is no long-lived worker isolate: small payloads are processed inline and large ones on a short-lived isolate spawned per call. So sharing an instance buys nothing measurable and there is nothing left to supervise, which was what the old parameter was for. What survives is substituting an implementation, for example a native parser or a wrapper that measures the default one, and that needs a contract rather than a concrete class. Keeping `YAJsonIsolate` out of the exports of `supabase` and `supabase_flutter` also keeps `yet_another_json_isolate` out of their public API, so it can be replaced without a breaking change. Applications that want to name the default implementation can depend on the package directly. This takes a different direction from #1750, which forwards the concrete type through `Supabase.initialize` instead. ### Verification - `flutter analyze` clean across the workspace, `dart format` clean, and `dcm analyze packages` clean, which is the command CI runs. - `packages/supabase` (143 tests), `packages/supabase_functions` (55), `packages/supabase_flutter` (77), `packages/yet_another_json_isolate` and `packages/supabase_common` (109) suites pass, as do the `packages/postgrest` tests that do not need a local stack. The postgrest suites that do need one were not run. - New tests: postgrest routes decoding through a supplied codec, leaves it for the caller to dispose, and disposes the one it created itself; `supabase_functions` routes both encoding and decoding through a supplied codec; `SupabaseClient` leaves a supplied codec alone on `dispose()`; `supabase_flutter` implements the interface through its own export, so the export chain is covered. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit - **New Features** - Added the public `AsyncJsonCodec` API for asynchronous JSON encoding and decoding. - Added optional `jsonCodec` support across Supabase, PostgREST, Functions, and initialization APIs. - Shared codecs are consistently reused across related client operations and managed according to ownership. - Realtime messages now use typed payloads with asynchronous encoding and decoding. - Added a shared typed sort direction for storage queries. - **Documentation** - Updated migration guidance for codec usage, Realtime payloads, client headers, builders, and sorting. - Added guidance for customizing and timing JSON codec operations. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->

Closes the remaining item from #1749.
SupabaseClientalready takes anisolate:parameter and already tracksownership —
_hasCustomIsolatekeepsdispose()from disposing an instance itdid not create.
Supabase.initializejust never forwarded it, so asupabase_flutterapp cannot reach the parameter at all.YAJsonIsolatewas also not exported bysupabaseorsupabase_flutter, whichmade the existing
SupabaseClientparameter unusable without adding a directdependency on
yet_another_json_isolate. This exports the type (show YAJsonIsolate) so the public API is callable, and drops three now-redundantimports the analyzer flagged as a result.
Changes
supabase: exportYAJsonIsolate.supabase_flutter:isolate:onSupabase.initialize, threaded toSupabaseClientthrough_init, with dartdoc noting that a supplied instanceis owned by the caller.
isolate is still usable after
Supabase.instance.dispose().Why
Sharing one instance with code outside Supabase, and — for anyone still on the
released
yet_another_json_isolate2.1.1, where a single persistent workerbacks every
functions.invokeand every large postgrest decode — being able tohold and supervise that instance. #1746 makes the second reason far less
pressing once it ships; the first stands on its own.
Verification
flutter analyzeclean on both packages.packages/supabaseandpackages/supabase_fluttertest suites pass.stream_integration_test.dartfails identically before and after this change (it needs a local stack).
