The authentication client is configured with scheme "expo" but the app uses scheme "lightfast-chat", causing authentication redirects to fail.

Analysis

Authentication client scheme mismatch breaks OAuth callbacks

What fails: expoClient in apps/mobile/src/utils/auth.ts uses scheme "expo" but app is configured for "lightfast-chat" scheme, causing OAuth redirect failures

How to reproduce:

  1. Configure OAuth provider with redirect URI using the app's scheme
  2. Initiate OAuth flow through the mobile app
  3. After OAuth provider authentication, redirect fails because auth client generates "expo://" URLs but app only handles "lightfast-chat://" URLs

Result: OAuth callback fails to return to app - authentication flow cannot complete

Expected: Authentication should redirect back to app successfully using "lightfast-chat://" scheme as configured in app.config.ts, Android manifest, and iOS Info.plist

Source: Expo AuthSession documentation confirms scheme must match app configuration for deep linking callbacks to work

- Rename chat route from [id] to [sessionId] for clarity
- Remove unused post route implementation
- Add lucide-react-native and react-native-svg dependencies
- Update base URL port from 3000 to 4106 for chat backend
- Add dev:chat+mobile script for parallel development
- Fix indentation and formatting in multiple files

The verifyToken function is imported from @vendor/clerk/server but this function doesn't exist in the Clerk vendor package, which will cause a runtime import error.

Analysis

Missing verifyToken import causes runtime error in TRPC authentication

What fails: Import of verifyToken from @vendor/clerk/server fails because the function is not available in @clerk/nextjs/server - it exists in @clerk/backend

How to reproduce:

# Try to start the TRPC server or make authenticated API calls
cd api/chat && node -e "import('@vendor/clerk/server').then(m => console.log(m.verifyToken))"

Result: verifyToken is undefined - the function doesn't exist in the re-exported @clerk/nextjs/server package

Expected: verifyToken should be available for Bearer token verification per Clerk Backend SDK documentation which shows verifyToken is exported from @clerk/backend

Fix: Added @clerk/backend dependency to vendor/clerk package and exported it from server.ts to make verifyToken available alongside Next.js server functions
