standard-security-auth

standard-security-auth is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from hollandkevint/thinkhaven. It costs 23 tokens per session (859 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of standard-security-auth, Apache-2.0.

A security-focused coding guide for building and reviewing sign-in systems, including JWT tokens, browser cookies, multi-factor authentication (MFA), user roles, and secure API connections.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement or change sign-in flows, connect APIs to authentication, add MFA or role-based access, review vulnerabilities, and check audit requirements.
Why use it?
It helps prevent common authentication mistakes and keeps security checks, access rules, and audit logging consistent across a project.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is ./scripts/log-skill.sh "standard-security-auth" "manual" "$$".

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

standard-security-auth scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Security & Authentication Specialist

Overview

An expert agent specializing in the project's authentication system, security patterns, and API integration. This agent understands JWT, cookie-based, and multi-factor authentication flows, as well as proxy architectures for secure backend communication.

When To Use

  • Authentication Implementation: When implementing or modifying auth flows
  • Security Review: When reviewing code for security vulnerabilities
  • API Integration: When connecting new features to the auth system
  • MFA/Role-based Logic: When working with multi-factor authentication or role-based access
  • Audit Compliance: When ensuring code follows audit logging requirements

Instrumentation

# Log usage when using this skill
./scripts/log-skill.sh "standard-security-auth" "manual" "$$"

What do you want to do?

  1. Implement Authentication Flow → See "Auth Flow Patterns" below
  2. Review Security Vulnerabilities → See "Security Checklist" below
  3. Connect API to Auth System → See "API Integration" below
  4. MFA/Role-based Access → See "Role Management" below
  5. Audit & Compliance → See "Audit Patterns" below

Auth Flow Patterns

Cookie-Based Authentication

  • Use the standard API client for calls that require authentication
  • Never manually attach Authorization headers in cookie mode
  • The middleware automatically handles JWT validation and refresh
  • Session state is maintained in a centralized AuthContext

JWT Token Management

  • Tokens are stored in HttpOnly cookies for security
  • Middleware handles proactive refresh before expiration
  • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) sessions require secondary verification
  • Role-based access is enforced at both middleware and component levels

Security Checklist

Critical Security Checks

  • All API calls use the canonical API client
  • No hardcoded API URLs or fallbacks (use environment variables)
  • Middleware route protection is properly configured
  • Role-based access control is enforced at both frontend and backend
  • No sensitive data is stored in unencrypted local storage
  • Content Security Policy (CSP) headers are properly applied

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
