vanilla javascript jwt authentication laravel

1In my guest RedirectIfAuthenticated middleware check for cookie, if exists, setToken which in turn sets Guard to Authenticated and will always redirect to /home if token is available and valid:
2
3public function handle($request, Closure $next, $guard = null)
4{
5    if ($request->hasCookie('access_token')) {
6        Auth::setToken($request->cookie('access_token'));
7    }
8
9    if (Auth::guard($guard)->check()) {
10        return redirect('/home');
11    }
12
13    return $next($request);
14}
15
16And In my post-auth Routes middleware I also setToken and if its valid and exists, will allow access, otherwise will throw a range of JWT errors which just redirect to pre-auth view:
17
18public function handle($request, Closure $next)
19{
20    JWTAuth::setToken($request->cookie('access_token'))->authenticate();
21
22    return $next($request);
23}
