Oauth new user

Hi, having a lot of success so far with better-auth, it has been a joy to use. My issue at the moment is that I want to have social login and signup, but need them to be on separate paths. At the moment, if I don’t have an account and login, it automatically creates a new account and logs me in - I would like to catch that early and not create the account until the new user has gone through the sign up process. I know I can manage it with a flag for a new user which the app will check against each time, then delete the user if they don’t finish signing up, but that feels a little clunky. Does anyone have a good process for dealing with this situation, or is the new user flag the best solution? Thanks
