Common Issues
auth
Login or Signup Not Working in My AI App
Users try to log in or create an account but nothing happens, they get an error, or they're stuck in a loop. This is one of the most common issues with AI-generated apps because auth involves multiple moving parts.
Error Messages You Might See
Invalid login credentials
Email not confirmed
User already registered
Failed to fetch
401 Unauthorized
Redirect URI mismatch
Common Causes
- Auth provider (Supabase, Firebase, Auth0) is not properly configured
- Redirect URLs are wrong — the app sends users to the wrong page after login
- Session or token management is broken — users appear logged in but the app doesn't recognize them
- Email confirmation is required but the emails aren't being sent
- Row Level Security (RLS) policies are blocking access to user data
How to Fix It
- Open browser dev tools (F12) and check the Network tab during login — look for failed API calls
- Verify your auth provider's redirect URL matches your actual app URL
- Check if email confirmation is enabled and whether emails are being sent (check spam folder)
- If using Supabase, check RLS policies — they often block legitimate queries
- Make sure your auth provider's API keys are correct in your environment variables

Full-stack developer experienced in fixing and deploying AI-generated apps from Lovable, Bolt.new, Cursor, and Replit. I specialize in debugging Supabase integration issues (auth flows, RLS policies, database connections), fixing broken deployments, resolving routing/blank screen problems, and cleaning up messy React/Vite codebases. I also build production apps with the Claude API and have shipped a Mac desktop dev tool (Nexterm from scratch. Based in Hong Kong, fast turnaround.

Hey I'm Sage! Im a Boston area software engineer who grew up in South Florida. Ive worked at a ton of cool places like a telehealth kidney care startup that took part in a billion dollar merger (Cricket health/Interwell health), a boutique design agency where I got to work on a ton of exciting startups including a photography education app, a collegiate Esports league and more (Philosophie), a data analytics as a service startup in Cambridge (MA) as well as at Phillips and MIT Lincoln Lab where I designed and developed novel network security visualizations and analytics. I've been writing code and furiously devoted to using computers to make people’s lives easier for about 17 years. My degree is in making computers make pretty lights and sounds. Outside of work I love hip hop, the Celtics, professional wrestling, magic the gathering, photography, drumming, and guitars (both making and playing them)

Jacek Rozanski
Senior PHP/Symfony developer and DevOps engineer with 20+ years of professional experience, running opcode.pl (web development agency, est. 2004).
Day job: I'm the sole backend developer at merketing company where I own and maintain 11 PHP/Symfony microservices on AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, CloudFront), handle the full CI/CD pipeline (Bitbucket Pipelines, Docker), and manage monitoring with Sentry and CloudWatch. These services handle high request volumes in production every month.
What I bring to AI-built apps:
- I audit and fix security issues (OWASP methodology), performance bottlenecks, and architectural problems in codebases generated by Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, and v0
- I refactor AI-generated prototypes into production-grade applications with proper error handling, testing, and clean architecture (SOLID, DDD, hexagonal architecture)
- I set up the infrastructure AI tools don't touch: AWS hosting, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, database optimization, monitoring, and alerting
- I integrate external services: payment providers, email systems, partner APIs, SSO/auth
Tech stack: PHP 8.x, Symfony, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, SQS/SNS, CloudFront), Terraform, Supabase. I also use AI tools daily (Claude Code, Cursor) in my own workflow, so I understand both the strengths and the gaps in AI-generated code.
Based in Poland (CET timezone). Available for async work and calls during EU/US business hours.

Get HelpFrequently Asked Questions
Users can sign up but can't log in. What's wrong?
Usually an email confirmation issue — check if your auth provider requires email verification. Also verify that the login redirect URL is correct.
Login works on localhost but not in production. Why?
Your auth provider's redirect URLs probably still point to localhost. Update them to your production domain in the auth provider's dashboard.
