/**
 * This is a custom provider that automatically refreshes the session when the access token is about to expire.
 * When communicating with the reflector API, we need to ensure that the access token is always valid.
 *
 * We could have implemented that as an interceptor on the API client, but not everything is using the
 * API client, or have access to NextJS directly (serviceWorker).
