SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill resolves 401 Unauthorized errors in Elysia.js applications where valid JWT tokens signed by authentication routes are rejected by protected routes, caused by multiple separate JWT plugin instances that cannot verify tokens signed by other instances, as well as Elysia 1.2 derive cache bugs that produce identical 401 symptoms on POST routes with body schemas.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Diagnoses duplicate JWT plugin instances across route files to identify token verification failure root causes.
  • Provides a shared singleton JWT plugin pattern to align token signing and verification across all routes.
  • Includes workarounds for Elysia 1.2 derive cache bugs that cause undefined user IDs on POST routes with body schemas.
  • Use Case: A developer building a Bun-based Elysia.js API with JWT authentication can use this Skill to fix broken protected routes that return 401 even with valid login tokens.

Quick Start

Use this skill to fix 401 Unauthorized errors in your Elysia.js app when valid JWT tokens are rejected by protected routes.

Frequently Asked Questions about elysia-jwt-plugin-singleton

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
Why does Elysia.js return 401 Unauthorized for valid JWT tokens on protected routes?

Elysia.js returns 401 Unauthorized for valid JWTs when multiple separate JWT plugin instances exist across route files, preventing one instance from verifying tokens signed by another. A shared singleton JWT pattern aligns token signing and verification across all routes.

How do I fix JWT authentication errors in my Bun-based Elysia.js API?

Fix JWT authentication errors in your Bun-based Elysia.js API by diagnosing duplicate plugin instances and implementing a shared singleton JWT plugin pattern. This ensures all route files use the same instance for consistent token verification.

Can Elysia 1.2 derive cache bugs cause 401 errors on POST routes with body schemas?

Yes, Elysia 1.2 derive cache bugs cause 401 errors on POST routes with body schemas by producing undefined user IDs. Inline verification workarounds and diagnostic steps resolve these token signing and verification mismatches.

What is the singleton pattern for the Elysia.js JWT plugin?

The singleton pattern for the Elysia.js JWT plugin involves creating a single shared instance imported across all route files instead of instantiating separate plugins per route. This ensures consistent token signing and verification throughout the application.

When should I use inline verification workarounds for Elysia JWT 401 errors?

Use inline verification workarounds for Elysia JWT 401 errors when protected routes reject valid tokens due to Elysia 1.2 derive cache bugs on POST routes with body schemas. These workarounds bypass derive caching issues that produce undefined user IDs.
