Database Hooks `before.create` Has Undefined Context

How is the context populated in the database before create hook? Taken from example here https://www.better-auth.com/docs/concepts/database#1-before-hook Code snippet below:

databaseHooks: {
  session: {
    create: {
      before: async (session, context) => {
        // context is always undefined here

        return {
          data: session
        }
      },
    }
  }
},

databaseHooks: {
  session: {
    create: {
      before: async (session, context) => {
        // context is always undefined here

        return {
          data: session
        }
      },
    }
  }
},

It depends on how a given session was created, in some cases there can be no ctx.

Yeah I see the parameter type as GenericEndpointContext | undefined. I'm trying to get the context during signup with oauth in the /callback/:id path.

I see, I'll look into the source code and see if I can add ctx.
