  2. Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
  3. Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
New install

I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.

Upgrade existing

I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

Authentication & Authorization Patterns

Master authentication and authorization patterns including JWT, OAuth2, session management, and RBAC to build secure, scalable access control systems.

Description

USE WHEN: Implementing user authentication systems Securing REST or GraphQL APIs Adding OAuth2/social login or SSO Designing session management Implementing RBAC or permission systems Debugging authentication issues DON'T USE WHEN: Only need UI/login page styling Task is infrastructure-only without identity concerns Cannot change auth policies

Generate Tokens

import jwt from 'jsonwebtoken'; function generateTokens(user: User) { const accessToken = jwt.sign( { userId: user.id, email: user.email, role: user.role }, process.env.JWT_SECRET!, { expiresIn: '15m' } // Short-lived ); const refreshToken = jwt.sign( { userId: user.id }, process.env.JWT_REFRESH_SECRET!, { expiresIn: '7d' } // Long-lived ); return { accessToken, refreshToken }; }

Verify Middleware

function authenticate(req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) { const authHeader = req.headers.authorization; if (!authHeader?.startsWith('Bearer ')) { return res.status(401).json({ error: 'No token provided' }); } const token = authHeader.substring(7); try { const payload = jwt.verify(token, process.env.JWT_SECRET!); req.user = payload; next(); } catch (error) { return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Invalid token' }); } }

Refresh Token Flow

app.post('/api/auth/refresh', async (req, res) => { const { refreshToken } = req.body; try { // Verify refresh token const payload = jwt.verify(refreshToken, process.env.JWT_REFRESH_SECRET!); // Check if token exists in database (not revoked) const storedToken = await db.refreshTokens.findOne({ token: await hash(refreshToken), expiresAt: { $gt: new Date() } }); if (!storedToken) { return res.status(403).json({ error: 'Token revoked' }); } // Generate new access token const user = await db.users.findById(payload.userId); const accessToken = jwt.sign( { userId: user.id, email: user.email, role: user.role }, process.env.JWT_SECRET!, { expiresIn: '15m' } ); res.json({ accessToken }); } catch { res.status(401).json({ error: 'Invalid refresh token' }); } });

Session-Based Authentication

import session from 'express-session'; import RedisStore from 'connect-redis'; app.use(session({ store: new RedisStore({ client: redisClient }), secret: process.env.SESSION_SECRET!, resave: false, saveUninitialized: false, cookie: { secure: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production', // HTTPS only httpOnly: true, // No JavaScript access maxAge: 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000, // 24 hours sameSite: 'strict' // CSRF protection } })); // Login app.post('/api/auth/login', async (req, res) => { const { email, password } = req.body; const user = await db.users.findOne({ email }); if (!user || !(await verifyPassword(password, user.passwordHash))) { return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Invalid credentials' }); } req.session.userId = user.id; req.session.role = user.role; res.json({ user: { id: user.id, email: user.email } }); }); // Logout app.post('/api/auth/logout', (req, res) => { req.session.destroy(() => { res.clearCookie('connect.sid'); res.json({ message: 'Logged out' }); }); });

OAuth2 / Social Login

import passport from 'passport'; import { Strategy as GoogleStrategy } from 'passport-google-oauth20'; passport.use(new GoogleStrategy({ clientID: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID!, clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET!, callbackURL: '/api/auth/google/callback' }, async (accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) => { // Find or create user let user = await db.users.findOne({ googleId: profile.id }); if (!user) { user = await db.users.create({ googleId: profile.id, email: profile.emails?.[0]?.value, name: profile.displayName }); } return done(null, user); })); // Routes app.get('/api/auth/google', passport.authenticate('google', { scope: ['profile', 'email'] })); app.get('/api/auth/google/callback', passport.authenticate('google', { session: false }), (req, res) => { const tokens = generateTokens(req.user); res.redirect(`${FRONTEND_URL}/auth/callback?token=${tokens.accessToken}`); });

Authorization: RBAC

enum Role { USER = 'user', MODERATOR = 'moderator', ADMIN = 'admin' } const roleHierarchy: Record<Role, Role[]> = { [Role.ADMIN]: [Role.ADMIN, Role.MODERATOR, Role.USER], [Role.MODERATOR]: [Role.MODERATOR, Role.USER], [Role.USER]: [Role.USER] }; function hasRole(userRole: Role, requiredRole: Role): boolean { return roleHierarchy[userRole].includes(requiredRole); } function requireRole(...roles: Role[]) { return (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) => { if (!req.user) { return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Not authenticated' }); } if (!roles.some(role => hasRole(req.user.role, role))) { return res.status(403).json({ error: 'Insufficient permissions' }); } next(); }; } // Usage app.delete('/api/users/:id', authenticate, requireRole(Role.ADMIN), async (req, res) => { await db.users.delete(req.params.id); res.json({ message: 'User deleted' }); } );

Permission-Based Access

enum Permission { READ_USERS = 'read:users', WRITE_USERS = 'write:users', DELETE_USERS = 'delete:users', READ_POSTS = 'read:posts', WRITE_POSTS = 'write:posts' } const rolePermissions: Record<Role, Permission[]> = { [Role.USER]: [Permission.READ_POSTS, Permission.WRITE_POSTS], [Role.MODERATOR]: [Permission.READ_POSTS, Permission.WRITE_POSTS, Permission.READ_USERS], [Role.ADMIN]: Object.values(Permission) }; function requirePermission(...permissions: Permission[]) { return (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) => { if (!req.user) return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Not authenticated' }); const hasAll = permissions.every(p => rolePermissions[req.user.role]?.includes(p) ); if (!hasAll) return res.status(403).json({ error: 'Insufficient permissions' }); next(); }; }

Resource Ownership

function requireOwnership(resourceType: 'post' | 'comment') { return async (req: Request, res: Response, next: NextFunction) => { if (!req.user) return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Not authenticated' }); // Admins can access anything if (req.user.role === Role.ADMIN) return next(); const resource = await db[resourceType].findById(req.params.id); if (!resource) return res.status(404).json({ error: 'Not found' }); if (resource.userId !== req.user.userId) { return res.status(403).json({ error: 'Not authorized' }); } next(); }; } // Usage: Users can only update their own posts app.put('/api/posts/:id', authenticate, requireOwnership('post'), updatePost);

Password Security

import bcrypt from 'bcrypt'; import { z } from 'zod'; const passwordSchema = z.string() .min(12, 'Password must be at least 12 characters') .regex(/[A-Z]/, 'Must contain uppercase') .regex(/[a-z]/, 'Must contain lowercase') .regex(/[0-9]/, 'Must contain number') .regex(/[^A-Za-z0-9]/, 'Must contain special character'); async function hashPassword(password: string): Promise<string> { return bcrypt.hash(password, 12); // 12 rounds } async function verifyPassword(password: string, hash: string): Promise<boolean> { return bcrypt.compare(password, hash); }

โœ… Do

Use HTTPS everywhere Hash passwords with bcrypt (12+ rounds) Use short-lived access tokens (15-30 min) Store refresh tokens in database (revocable) Validate all input Rate limit auth endpoints Log security events Use secure cookie flags (httpOnly, secure, sameSite)

โŒ Don't

Store passwords in plain text Store JWT in localStorage (XSS vulnerable) Use weak JWT secrets Trust client-side auth checks only Expose stack traces in errors Skip server-side validation Ignore rate limiting

Common Pitfalls

IssueSolutionJWT in localStorageUse httpOnly cookiesNo token expirationSet short TTL + refresh tokensWeak passwordsEnforce strong policy with zodNo rate limitingUse express-rate-limit + RedisClient-only authAlways validate server-side
