**Date:** 2026-01-28  
**Status:** Complete - All authentication delegated to WorkOS AuthKit hosted UI

---

## ✅ What Was Done

### 1. Simplified Auth Pages

**`/auth/login`** (`routes/auth.login.tsx`)
- ✅ Removed all custom UI
- ✅ Immediately redirects to WorkOS hosted UI via `signIn()`
- ✅ No email/password forms
- ✅ No custom components

**`/auth/register`** (`routes/auth.register.tsx`)
- ✅ Removed all custom UI
- ✅ Immediately redirects to WorkOS hosted UI via `signUp()`
- ✅ No email/password forms
- ✅ No custom components

**`/auth/reset-password`** (`routes/auth.reset-password.tsx`)
- ✅ Removed all custom UI
- ✅ Redirects to `/auth/login` (WorkOS handles password reset)

### 2. Provider Setup

**`AppProviders.tsx`**
- ✅ Wraps entire app with `AuthKitProvider`
- ✅ Reads `VITE_WORKOS_CLIENT_ID` and `VITE_WORKOS_API_HOSTNAME`
- ✅ Conditionally wraps when WorkOS is configured

**`AuthKitSync.tsx`**
- ✅ Syncs WorkOS auth state with local store
- ✅ Handles redirects after authentication
- ✅ Refreshes tokens automatically

### 3. Environment Variables

**`.env.local`**
- ✅ Added `VITE_WORKOS_CLIENT_ID`
- ✅ Added `VITE_WORKOS_API_HOSTNAME`

## ✅ Verification

After restarting dev server:

1. **Check Console** (should see):
   ```
   [AppProviders] WorkOS Client ID: Found
   [AppProviders] WorkOS API Hostname: significant-vessel-93-staging.authkit.app
   ```

2. **Test Login**
   - Visit `http://localhost:3000/auth/login`
   - Should immediately redirect to WorkOS hosted UI
   - No errors about AuthKitProvider

3. **Test Signup**
   - Visit `http://localhost:3000/auth/register`
