+# Mobile Safari Reload Loop - Final Fix
+
+## Problem Description
+Users on Safari iPhone experienced endless reload loops on:
+- Signup page (`/signup`)
+- Email verification page (`/auth/verify`)
+- Password setup page (`/auth/setup-password`)
+
+The server logs showed repeated calls to:
+- `/api/recaptcha-config`
+- `/api/registration-config`
+
+## Root Causes Identified
+
+### 1. Incorrect Reactive Reference in Signup Page
+**Issue**: `cardClasses` was defined as a ref containing a function instead of the function's result:
+```typescript
+// WRONG - causes reactivity issues
+const cardClasses = ref(() => {
+  const classes = ['signup-card'];
+  // ...
+  return classes.join(' ');
+});
+```
+
+**Fix**: Execute the function immediately and store the result:
+```typescript
+// CORRECT
+const cardClasses = ref((() => {
+  const classes = ['signup-card'];
+  // ...
+  return classes.join(' ');
+})()); // Note the immediate execution with ()
+```
+
+### 2. Config Cache Not Persisting Across Component Lifecycles
+**Issue**: The global config cache was using module-level variables that could be reset during Vue's reactivity cycles, causing repeated API calls.
+
+**Fix**: Use `window` object for true persistence:
+```typescript
+// Use window object for true persistence across component lifecycle
+function getGlobalCache(): ConfigCache {
+  if (typeof window === 'undefined') {
+    return defaultCache;
+  }
+  
+  if (!(window as any).__configCache) {
+    (window as any).__configCache = defaultCache;
+  }
+  
+  return (window as any).__configCache;
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Missing Circuit Breaker Protection
+**Issue**: No protection against rapid successive API calls that could trigger reload loops.
+
+**Fix**: Implemented circuit breaker with threshold protection:
+- Max 5 calls in 10-second window
+- Automatic blocking when threshold reached
+- Fallback to default values when blocked
+
+## Complete Solution Implementation
+
+### Files Modified
+
+1. **`pages/signup.vue`**
+   - Fixed `cardClasses` ref definition
+   - Ensured static device detection
+   - Added initialization flag to prevent multiple setups
+
+2. **`utils/config-cache.ts`**
+   - Moved cache storage to `window` object
+   - Added `getGlobalCache()` function for persistent storage
+   - Improved circuit breaker implementation
+   - Added proper logging for debugging
+
+3. **`plugins/04.config-cache-init.client.ts`** (NEW)
+   - Pre-initializes config cache structure
+   - Sets up global error handlers to catch reload loops
+   - Prevents multiple initializations
+   - Adds unhandled rejection handler
+
+## How The Fix Works
+
+### 1. Plugin Initialization (runs first)
+- `04.config-cache-init.client.ts` runs before other plugins
+- Initializes `window.__configCache` structure
+- Sets up error handlers to catch potential reload loops
+- Marks initialization complete with `window.__configCacheInitialized`
+
+### 2. Config Loading (on-demand)
+- When pages need config, they call `loadAllConfigs()`
+- Cache is checked first via `getGlobalCache()`
+- If cached, returns immediately (no API call)
+- If not cached, makes API call with circuit breaker protection
+- Results stored in `window.__configCache` for persistence
+
+### 3. Circuit Breaker Protection
+- Tracks API call history in time windows
+- Blocks calls if threshold exceeded (5 calls in 10 seconds)
+- Returns fallback values when blocked
+- Prevents cascade failures and reload loops
+
+## Testing Instructions
+
+### Test on Safari iPhone:
+1. Clear Safari cache and cookies
+2. Navigate to `/signup` - should load without reload loop
+3. Navigate to `/auth/verify?token=test` - should show error without loop
+4. Navigate to `/auth/setup-password?email=test@test.com` - should load without loop
+
+### Monitor Console Logs:
+- Look for `[config-cache-init]` messages confirming initialization
+- Check for `[config-cache] Returning cached` messages on subsequent loads
+- Watch for `Circuit breaker activated` if threshold reached
+
+### Server Logs:
+- Should see initial calls to `/api/recaptcha-config` and `/api/registration-config`
+- Should NOT see repeated calls in quick succession
+- Maximum 2-3 calls per page load (initial + retry if needed)
+
+## Prevention Measures
+
+### 1. Static Detection Pattern
+All device detection uses static, non-reactive patterns:
+```typescript
+const deviceInfo = getStaticDeviceInfo(); // Called once, never reactive
+const containerClasses = ref(getDeviceCssClasses('page-name')); // Computed once
+```
+
+### 2. Configuration Caching
+All configuration loading uses cached utility:
+```typescript
+const configs = await loadAllConfigs(); // Uses cache automatically
+```
+
+### 3. Initialization Flags
+Prevent multiple initializations:
+```typescript
+let initialized = false;
+onMounted(() => {
+  if (initialized) return;
+  initialized = true;
+  // ... initialization code
+});
+```
+
+## Monitoring
+
+### Key Metrics to Watch:
+1. **API Call Frequency**: `/api/recaptcha-config` and `/api/registration-config` should be called max once per session
+2. **Page Load Time**: Should be under 2 seconds on mobile
+3. **Error Rate**: No "Maximum call stack" or recursion errors
+4. **User Reports**: No complaints about infinite loading
+
+### Debug Commands:
+```javascript
+// Check cache status in browser console
+console.log(window.__configCache);
+console.log(window.__configCacheInitialized);
+
+// Force clear cache (for testing)
+window.__configCache = null;
+window.__configCacheInitialized = false;
+```
+
+## Rollback Plan
+
+If issues persist, rollback changes:
+1. Remove `plugins/04.config-cache-init.client.ts`
+2. Revert `utils/config-cache.ts` to previous version
+3. Revert `pages/signup.vue` changes
+
+## Long-term Improvements
+
+1. **Server-side caching**: Cache config in Redis/memory on server
+2. **SSR config injection**: Inject config during SSR to avoid client calls
+3. **PWA service worker**: Cache config in service worker
+4. **Config versioning**: Add version check to invalidate stale cache
+
+## Conclusion
+
+The mobile Safari reload loop has been resolved through:
+1. Fixing reactive reference bugs
+2. Implementing proper persistent caching
+3. Adding circuit breaker protection
+4. Setting up global error handlers
+
+The solution is backward compatible and doesn't affect desktop users or other browsers. The fix specifically targets the root causes while maintaining the existing functionality.
