1-5: Changeset frontmatter targets all affected packages — LGTM.

Patch bumps for @clerk/clerk-js, @clerk/clerk-react, and @clerk/types align with the PR intent of removing an unused internal flag. No issues with the YAML-style frontmatter.

1-5: “patch” classification is safe – no remaining code references to __internal_hasAfterAuthFlows

We ran a repo-wide search (excluding node_modules) and only found mentions in CHANGELOG.md files. There are no usages in source code, docs, examples, or tests, so removing this internal-only flag won’t break any consumer code. Keeping the version bump as a patch is appropriate.
