Research direction

Start by tracing the SignUp and SignIn entry points and checking how existing-user and email-verification outcomes are currently reported. Done means users receive clear messages for recognized accounts and verification-link delivery, with the relevant authentication flow behaving consistently.

What happened?

🎯 Expected Behavior

Whenever you SignUp/SignIn, you should see some messages like "this is an registered email account" or "we have sent you verification link, check your email".

🚨 Actual Behavior

On Signup/Signin, project isnt showing if its old user or new user. or if there is a verification link I should see in my email. When you login/signup you may face some confusion due to lack of given information. I am sure I am not only one who faced this issue when exploring and understanding project.
