Code Modules + Filters + Routes = ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS. Where am I going wrong?

I solved about 30 seconds after I hit 'Post Topic'. 


In App/Config/Filters.php where I specify the filter is this:

PHP Code:

// Always applied before every request
public $globals = [
    'before' => [
        //'honeypot'
        // 'csrf',
        'auth',
//...
//... 


Note the comment "Always applied before every request". I realised this was being run on the Dashboard (where it is meant to), and AGAIN on the /login page (which redirects it again...and again...and again...). Oops. I changed it to this and it works now:

PHP Code:

// Always applied before every request
public $globals = [
    'before' => [
        //'honeypot'
        // 'csrf',
        'auth' => ['except' => 'login'],
//...
//...
