description: Multi-app auth system with unified login - employee JWT + Clerk + admin JWT

type: project

|
Three-tier SaaS auth system (RentalDriveGo car management monorepo):
|
|
|
|
1. **Admins** — JWT auth (`type: 'admin'`) issued into the HttpOnly `admin_session` cookie in the admin app (port 3002)
|
|
2. **Employees (Owner/Manager/Agent)** — Clerk OAuth when configured, local JWT (`type: 'employee'`) when Clerk is not configured. The API stores the session in the HttpOnly `employee_session` cookie; browser code may cache profile/preferences, but not auth tokens.
|
|
3. **Renters** — JWT infrastructure exists but login is currently disabled (returns 403)
|
|
|
|
**Unified login page:** `apps/dashboard/src/app/sign-in/[[...sign-in]]/page.tsx`
|
|
- Shows Clerk component when `NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY` is a real key
|
|
- Otherwise shows local form that tries employee login, then admin login
|
|
- Admin users are redirected after the API sets `admin_session`; URL-fragment token handoff is legacy and should not return
|
|
|
|
**Key API endpoints:**
|
|
- `POST /api/v1/auth/employee/login` — local employee auth (email + password → HttpOnly session cookie)
|
|
- `POST /api/v1/admin/auth/login` — admin auth (email + password + TOTP or recovery code when enabled → HttpOnly session cookie)
|
|
- `POST /api/v1/auth/company/signup` — company signup (accepts optional `password` field)
|
|
|
|
**requireCompanyAuth middleware** — accepts the `employee_session` HttpOnly cookie, and still supports trusted Bearer tokens for server/mobile/integration contexts.
|
|
|
|
**Why:** Clerk keys were placeholder values (`pk_test_your_real_publishable_key_here`), making the login page non-functional. Added local JWT auth as a fully working fallback.
|
|
|
|
**How to apply:** When working on auth or protected routes, check if Clerk is actually configured (real keys) vs local JWT mode. The `clerkFrontendEnabled`/`clerkBackendEnabled` flags in `apps/dashboard/src/lib/clerk.ts` detect this.
