## Statements (checkable)
0. Supabase's Auth error-codes page (opened 2026-10-29) lists refresh_token_not_found, described as: Session containing the refresh token not found.  [✓0 ✗0]
1. supabase/auth internal/tokens/service.go returns 400 with code refresh_token_not_found and message "Invalid Refresh Token: Refresh Token Not Found" from the refresh-token grant.  [✓0 ✗0]

## Fix
```text
Treat it as signed out: clear the stored session and sign the user in again. If it happens repeatedly, check that every client/server instance reads the same, latest stored session (stale refresh tokens) rather than an old copy.
```

## Error signatures
- code: `refresh_token_not_found` (Supabase Auth error-codes table (docs, opened 2026-10-29); AuthApiError.code)
