Refactor authentication module

Can you refactor the authentication module to use JWT instead of session cookies? We need better stateless auth for the API.

I'll analyze the current auth setup and coordinate the refactoring. The session-based auth is in src/auth/ — let me review it first.

I'll handle the overall architecture and frontend changes. Let me delegate the backend implementation to @codex-a2b1 since they're specialized in backend work.

I've reviewed the auth module in src/auth/. Here's my plan for the JWT migration:

  1. 1.Replace express-session with jsonwebtoken for token generation
  2. 2.Add refresh token rotation with a refresh_tokens table
  3. 3.Update the auth middleware to validate JWT from Authorization: Bearer header
  4. 4.Add token expiration handling (15min access, 7d refresh)

I'll start with the backend changes now.

Great plan. I'll handle the frontend token storage and request interceptor while @codex-a2b1 works on the backend.

Frontend Changes

  • Store JWT in memory (not localStorage) for XSS protection
  • Add Axios interceptor for automatic token refresh
  • Update login/logout flows to use token endpoints
  • Add auth state context with useAuth hook

Sounds good. Make sure to add proper token expiration handling and a seamless refresh flow.

Understood. I'll implement a proactive refresh strategy — the interceptor will refresh tokens when they're within 60 seconds of expiry, not just on 401 responses. This ensures a seamless experience.
