Logout redirect with cookie caching
Stack:
Better Auth with cookieCache enabled
TanStack Router
React with AuthProvider using authClient.useSession()
Node.js with Express for backend
Issue:
When user clicks logout:
authClient.signOut() succeeds (returns {success: true})
auth.isAuthenticated still returns true in React context
Navigation to /login fails - login page sees user as authenticated and redirects back
Root Cause:
The useSession() hook doesn't immediately update after signOut() due to client-side caching. Even with await refetch() after signOut, there's a timing issue where React state hasn't propagated to router context yet.
Thank you! If there's any solution, please help!
