tRPC sends duplicate header

i tried setting up a reverse proxy for my NextJS + tRPC app using those 3 options:
- nginx
- traefik
- caddy

in all of them when i try to invoke a procedure using a

.useMutation()

.useMutation()

hook it fails with such error:

nginx:

upstream sent duplicate header line: "Transfer-Encoding: chunked"

upstream sent duplicate header line: "Transfer-Encoding: chunked"

traefik, caddy:

net/http: HTTP/1.x transport connection broken: too many transfer encodings: [\"chunked\" \"chunked\"]

net/http: HTTP/1.x transport connection broken: too many transfer encodings: [\"chunked\" \"chunked\"]

after investigating a bit in nginx i can see that it indeed sends it twice:

reverse-proxy-1  | 2025/08/23 19:59:07 [debug] 30#30: *5 http proxy status 200 "200 OK"

what can i do to fix this? is this an issue on my end somehow?
