WalkthroughThe project has undergone modifications to enhance its authentication process. Specifically, the Next.js API route file now includes logic to handle HTTP requests more precisely, ensuring responses are method-specific. Additionally, the authentication utility has been streamlined by removing outdated dependencies and functions, indicating a move towards a more modern and simplified authentication setup. Changes

- 10-10: The cleanup in
apps/web/src/utils/auth.ts, including the removal of unused imports and legacy session management functions, contributes to a cleaner and more maintainable codebase. This aligns with modern authentication practices and simplifies the authentication utilities. Ensure that the removal of these elements does not impact other parts of the application that might still rely on them. It's good practice to search the codebase for any references to the removed entities to confirm their safe deletion.

The addition of a check for the HEAD request method before proceeding with the AuthApiRoute function is a good practice for handling pre-fetching requests by browsers or link checkers. This ensures that verification links are not prematurely consumed by automated systems. However, consider adding a comment explaining the purpose of this check for future maintainability.
