Lovable Account Registration & Session Management

Context

Lovable.dev — AI app builder. The lovable2api gateway (localhost:8877) proxies build requests through authenticator browser sessions. Each session requires a valid Lovable JWT obtained by logging into lovable.dev.

The gateway stores sessions in DPAPI-encrypted .gateway-secrets.dpapi (Windows only). Session registration is done via POST /v1/session with a lovable_token JWT.

Registration Flow

Email Registration

URL: https://lovable.dev/signup

Step 1 — Email input:

  • Form shows email textbox + "Continue" button
  • If email doesn't exist: shows "No account found. Sign up or try another email."
    • Transitions to password input page with password requirements display
  • If email exists: redirects to login page

Step 2 — Password + Turnstile:

  • Password requirements: min 8 characters, must contain a number (0-9)
  • "Password meets all requirements" shown when valid
  • Cloudflare Turnstile challenge (checkbox) appears below password
  • "Create your account" button disabled until captcha passed

Step 3 — Turnstile Captcha:

  • Sitekey: 0x4AAAAAAChnKAZBY0iFpFHC (visible in page source / Turnstile iframe URL)
  • ⚠️ Turnstile consistently blocks Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) automation
    • Sign: iframe URL contains /auto/fbE/failure_retry/normal after click, shows "Сбой проверки" (Verification failure)
    • Turnstile detects navigator.webdriver, missing chrome.runtime, and other CDP traces
    • Even after manual checkbox click → failure_retry → captcha never validates
  • After registration: may send verification email (depends on account age/domain)

Social Auth

  • Google / GitHub / Apple buttons on signup form
  • Open OAuth popup — may bypass Turnstile if the provider's popup has its own auth flow
  • ⚠️ Google OAuth without saved session: If Chrome has no Google login cached, the popup lands on email input page (not account picker) — requires full Google credentials entry
  • ⚠️ Google OAuth from CDP Chrome: Google's signup flow detects CDP automation. Creating a new Google account via the "Создать аккаунт" link fails with "Не удалось создать аккаунт Google" (Could not create Google account) — Google's anti-automation rejects headless browsers even after completing all form steps (name, birthday, gender, username, password). Existing Google sessions may still work.
  • ⚠️ GitHub OAuth → DataDome CAPTCHA (2026-08-09): GitHub's signup page (github.com/signup) triggers DataDome CAPTCHA ("Доступ временно ограничен") when accessed from a CDP-controlled browser. The DataDome block is separate from Lovable's Turnstile — it's GitHub's own anti-bot layer. Existing GitHub sessions may bypass this; new signup from CDP Chrome is blocked.

Gateway Session Management

Register a Lovable Session

curl -X POST http://localhost:8877/v1/session \
  -H "X-API-Key: [REDACTED]" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"lovable_token": "[REDACTED-JWT]..."}'

Response on success:

{"ok": true, "session": {"id": "...", "label": "", "ready": true, ...}, "upstream": {...}}

What the gateway does with the JWT:

  1. Validates token is a JWT (starts with eyJ, 3 dot-separated parts)
  2. Checks JWT expiry timestamp (_jwt_exp_timestamp — parses base64 payload)
  3. Encrypts and stores session in .gateway-secrets.dpapi
  4. Marks session as enabled: true, ready: true
  5. Routes subsequent POST /v1/chat / POST /v1/create-project through this session

What V1 Session Endpoint Accepts

Field Description
lovable_token Lovable JWT (required). Also token alias.
session_ref Reference to an existing session to update. Optional.
projectId / workspaceId Optional context scoping.
email Optional — used for routing on upstream.

JWT Format

  • Standard JWT: eyJ... base64-url encoded header.payload.signature
  • Expiry embedded in payload: {"exp": 1722748800, ...}
  • Gateway auto-disables sessions where exp < now + 30s
  • Session shows disabled_reason: "jwt_expired" when expired

JWT Extraction from Logged-In Browser

After a successful login on lovable.dev:

From localStorage:

// Execute in browser console:
const token = [REDACTED]'lovable_token') || localStorage.getItem('token');
console.log(token);

From cookies:

// Check cookies:
document.cookie.split('; ').filter(c => c.includes('lovable_token') || c.includes('token'));

From network requests (DevTools Network tab):

  • Filter by lovable.dev/api
  • Look for Authorization: Bearer eyJ... in request headers
  • Also check X-Lovable-Token or similar custom headers

From Chrome DevTools MCP:

// After page is loaded with logged-in session:
const token = await page.evaluate(() => localStorage.getItem('lovable_token'));
// Or via mcp__chrome_devtools__evaluate_script

Session Lifecycle

Register JWT → Session ready, pool auto-selects
     ↓
JWT expires (~1-7 days, checked by _jwt_exp_timestamp)
     ↓
Session disabled_reason = "jwt_expired"
     ↓
Need fresh JWT → re-login → POST /v1/session again
  • Gateway checks expiry with _session_ready() helper: exp > now + 30s
  • Cooldowns: SESSION_COOLDOWN_SECONDS=300, SESSION_AUTH_COOLDOWN_SECONDS=900
  • Failed builds recorded against session; after 14+ failures with no success, session pool shows 0 ready

Checking Session Status

curl http://localhost:8877/v1/status -H "X-API-Key: [REDACTED]"

Key session fields:

  • enabled: true/false (gateway-level toggle)
  • ready: true/false (JWT valid + upstream ready)
  • disabled_reason: "jwt_expired" | "" | null
  • last_success_at: ISO timestamp of last successful build
  • failed_generations: count of failed build attempts

List Sessions

curl http://localhost:8877/v1/sessions -H "X-API-Key: [REDACTED]"

Delete a Dead Session

curl -X DELETE http://localhost:8877/v1/sessions/<session_id> \
  -H "X-API-Key: [REDACTED]"

Known Issues & Pitfalls

  1. CDP-can't-register: Cloudflare Turnstile on lovable.dev/signup detects Chrome DevTools Protocol and rejects all captcha attempts. Even clicking the checkbox manually via CDP results in failure_retry. This is a Turnstile anti-bot measure, not a misconfiguration.
  2. All three OAuth providers blocked via CDP (2026-08-09): GitHub signup triggers DataDome CAPTCHA, Google's new-account creation detects automation and returns "Не удалось создать аккаунт", Apple likely similar. The only CDP path is using an already-logged-in browser profile with existing sessions. Fresh account creation via any OAuth provider from headless CDP Chrome is blocked.
  3. JWT expiry: Lovable JWTs expire. Sessions die silently unless monitored via /v1/status. The gateway checks exp claim — tokens expiring within 30s are treated as dead.
  4. No API key in JWT: Lovable doesn't issue API keys — it's web-session-only. The gateway's lovable_token IS the web JWT.
  5. No public registration endpoint: Lovable does NOT offer a public API for account registration. All registration goes through the web form with Turnstile.
  6. Email verification: If the registration succeeds but email verification is required, the account won't generate valid build tokens until verified. Temp-mail domains may be blocked.
  7. Builder Engine v2 fallback: When no Lovable session is available, the local builder_engine.py can still generate static sites (HTML/CSS) with themed templates (premium, light, bold, neon, glassmorphism). 15+ sites generated, 5 themes, 5 data configs available as of 2026-08-04.
