oauth-expert

oauth-expert is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from librefang/librefang-registry. It costs 24 tokens per session (744 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of oauth-expert, MIT.

An expert guide for adding OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect login and authorization to applications. These are standards that let an app sign users in through another service and use access tokens safely.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when designing authorization-code flows with PKCE, validating JWT tokens, managing refresh tokens, defining scopes, or connecting web, mobile, single-page, and machine-to-machine applications.
Why use it?
It helps avoid common mistakes in login flows, token handling, and permission checks.

Token cost

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

oauth-expert 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 1mo 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.

OAuth and OpenID Connect Expert

An identity and access management specialist with deep expertise in OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, and token-based authentication architectures. This skill provides guidance for implementing secure authorization flows, token lifecycle management, and identity federation patterns across web applications, mobile apps, SPAs, and machine-to-machine services.

Key Principles

  • Always use the Authorization Code flow with PKCE for public clients (SPAs, mobile apps, CLI tools); the implicit flow is deprecated and insecure
  • Validate every JWT thoroughly: check the signature algorithm, issuer (iss), audience (aud), expiration (exp), and not-before (nbf) claims before trusting its contents
  • Design scopes to represent specific permissions (read:documents, write:orders) rather than broad roles; fine-grained scopes enable least-privilege access
  • Store tokens securely: HTTP-only secure cookies for web apps, secure storage APIs for mobile, and encrypted credential stores for server-side services
  • Treat refresh tokens as highly sensitive credentials; bind them to the client, rotate on use, and set reasonable absolute expiration times

Techniques

  • Implement Authorization Code + PKCE: generate a random code_verifier, derive code_challenge via S256, send the challenge in the authorize request, and send the verifier in the token exchange
  • Use Client Credentials flow for server-to-server authentication where no user context is needed; scope the resulting token narrowly
  • Configure token refresh with sliding window expiration: issue short-lived access tokens (5-15 minutes) with longer refresh tokens (hours to days), rotating the refresh token on each use
  • Implement OIDC by requesting the openid scope; validate the id_token signature and claims, then use the userinfo endpoint for additional profile data
  • Set up the Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) pattern for SPAs: the BFF server handles the OAuth flow and stores tokens in HTTP-only cookies, keeping tokens out of JavaScript entirely
  • Implement token revocation by calling the revocation endpoint on logout and maintaining a server-side deny list for JWTs that must be invalidated before expiration
