```
> fix the authentication bug in login.ts

  I'll read the file first.

  ○ Read src/auth/login.ts
    1  import { verify } from './jwt'
    ... 45 more lines

  Found it — token expiry compares seconds vs milliseconds.

  ● Edit src/auth/login.ts
    File updated

  ● Bash npm test
    24/24 tests passing

  Fixed. Wrapped the Unix timestamp in * 1000.
