qauth: Skill for Claude Code

Fastify (QAuth)

Standards-aligned Fastify usage for QAuth: plugin authoring, route validation, and production deployment. Use this skill when creating plugins, wiring routes, reviewing Fastify code, or configuring the server for production.

When to Use This Skill

• Adding a new @qauth-labs/fastify-plugin-* library
• Wrapping a shared utility (DB, cache, JWT, PKCE, etc.) as a Fastify plugin
• Defining or reviewing routes (schemas, type provider, validation)
• Configuring the server for production (reverse proxy, listen address, CVE/version)
• Reviewing or refactoring plugin registration order or decorator availability
• Questions about encapsulation, fastify-plugin, or lifecycle hooks

Production

• Use a reverse proxy (e.g. Nginx, HAProxy). Do not expose the Fastify app directly to the internet. Handle TLS, HTTP→HTTPS redirects, and static assets at the proxy.
• Listen on 0.0.0.0 in containers/Kubernetes so readiness/liveness probes can reach the app (the default 127.0.0.1 is unreachable from the pod network).
• Trust proxy: behind a reverse proxy, configure trustProxy so request.ip and X-Forwarded-* headers are correct.

Routes and Validation

• Schema: register schema.body, schema.querystring, schema.params, and schema.response (e.g. response: { 200: responseSchema }). Fastify v5 uses schemas for both validation and types.
• Type provider: call fastify.withTypeProvider<ZodTypeProvider>() before defining routes when using Zod schemas.
• See the validation skill for schema organization and Zod v4 validators.

fastify.withTypeProvider<ZodTypeProvider>().post(
  '/login',
  {
    schema: {
      body: loginSchema,
      response: { 200: loginResponseSchema },
    },
    config: { rateLimit: { max: env.LOGIN_RATE_LIMIT, timeWindow: env.LOGIN_RATE_WINDOW * 1000 } },
  },
  async (request, reply) => {
    /* ... */
  }
);

Security and Dependencies

• Fastify version: keep Fastify ≥ 5.3.2 to avoid CVE-2025-32442 (content-type parsing bypass in 5.0.0–5.3.0). Do not rely on content-type-specific validation without normalizing the header.
• Audit: run pnpm audit regularly; fix or document high/critical vulnerabilities (see the security skill).
• Node: Fastify v5 requires Node.js v20+; this project uses >=24.7.0.
