This is why signup doesn't work in the browser despite working with curl. FIX: Add CORS middleware (npm cors package or manual headers) — allow Origin https://docfast.dev (or * for the API). Also handle OPTIONS preflight requests properly. Test with: curl -H 'Origin: https://docfast.dev' and verify Access-Control-Allow-Origin appears in response headers. DEPLOY and VERIFY on live site.",
