Bug report
- I confirm this is a bug with Supabase, not with my own application.
- I confirm I have searched the [Docs](https://docs.supabase.com), GitHub [Discussions](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/discussions), and [Discord](https://discord.supabase.com).
Describe the bug
After updating from @supabase/supabase-js@2.49.9 to @2.49.10, webpack compilation shows critical dependency warnings during Next.js build process. The warnings indicate "the request of a dependency is an expression" and appear to originate from realtime-js module files within the Supabase package when used in Next.js server actions.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create a Next.js 15.3.3 project with App Router
- Install @supabase/supabase-js@2.49.10
- Use the Supabase client within a server action (e.g., in a form handler)
- Run
npm run buildfor production build
Screenshots
Expected behavior
Clean compilation without dependency warnings, as experienced in version 2.49.9. The build should complete without any webpack warnings related to critical dependencies.
System information
- OS: Ubuntu LTS (WSL2)
- Version of supabase-js: 2.49.10
- Version of Node.js: 22 (LTS)
- Next.js: 15.3.3
- React: 19.1
Additional context
- Downgrading to @supabase/supabase-js@2.49.8 eliminates the warnings completely
- The application appears to function correctly despite the warnings
- Warnings specifically mention
./node_modules/@supabase/realtime-js/dist/main/RealtimeClient.jsand related files - Build completes successfully but the warnings may indicate potential bundling concerns for production deployments
Newest version now gives:

Hi @ElectricCodeGuy thanks for reporting it, I're working on a fix for the warning.
Thanks.
