Was investigating the bug too but saw you raised a PR before i did anything. So left some comments based on my udnerstanding. Seems like the right approach! Ill try to simulate some possible set-ups and test with ur fix.

lgtm. This fix should resolve most of the 401 error bugs.

1. Local Storage Not Updated
Access tokens and refresh tokens are only saved to local storage on login, subsequent token refreshes do not update local storage.
Example: User refreshes to a new token and exits Overleaf, the next time he re-opens PaperDebugger, it uses the old refresh token.
Proposed solution: Update authStore whenever tokens are set.
2. Race Conditions When Refreshing
PaperDebugger often calls multiple endpoints at the same time, which results in a race condition if the token needs to be refreshed.
Example:
v2/chats/modelsandv2/chats/conversationsare called at the same time, and the access token needs refreshing, the refresh endpoint is called twice. In some occasions, the frontend uses the 2nd refresh token received which differs from the one stored in the backend. This can be easily reproduced by setting the JWT expiration in the backend to a very short time.Proposed solution: Use a promise for
refresh().Unsure if this fixes the exact problem in #110
