+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- e01945b: Reduce excessive /api/auth/get-session requests
+
+  - Enable better-auth's `cookieCache` on the server (5-minute TTL) so repeated session
+    checks verify a signed cookie instead of querying the database. Compatible with
+    horizontal scaling since validation uses the shared `BETTER_AUTH_SECRET`.
+
+  - Introduce a `SessionProvider` React context that fetches the session exactly once
+    at the top of the component tree. All 7+ components that previously called
+    `useSession()` independently now read from this shared context — eliminating
+    duplicate HTTP requests on every page load.
+
+  - Remove the `useAuthClient()` hook which created per-component better-auth client
+    instances via `useMemo`, causing separate nanostore atoms and independent fetches.
+    All imperative usages (signIn, signUp, resetPassword, etc.) now use the singleton
+    `getAuthClientLazy()` instead.
