I am working on a Nextjs project with Kinde for authentication and Convex for my backend. I am implementing custom auth by integrating Kinde. I have created my own custom auth provider to use with Kinde. The convex client seems not to fetch the JWT token although setAuth is called on the convex client. I get a null response when trying to log the user's identity to the client while a user is logged in.
What am I doing wrong here?

convex needs to be outside the ConvexProviderWithAuth component (in module scope): Otherwise you get a new Convex client on every render;
useKindeBrowserClient needs to be inside useAuthFromKinde hook implementation, otherwise it's not a real hook and won't react to the changes from Kinde's client.

Thanks for the feedback. I have done what you suggested but the JWT token is still not being fetched by the convex client.

I would suggest console.log inside the hook to debug what's going on. You can also pass {verbose: true} to the ConvexReactClient constructor to get more info.
We also have https://docs.convex.dev/auth/debug with more general auth debugging instructions that might be helpful.
