auth-flow

auth-flow is a skill for Claude Code from rshankras/claude-code-apple-skills. It costs 37 tokens per session (1,226 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A generator for app login and account security using Sign in with Apple, Face ID or Touch ID, and Apple Keychain, which securely stores sensitive data on Apple devices.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding login, Sign in with Apple, biometric sign-in, secure token storage, or user-session handling to an iOS or macOS app.
Why use it?
It provides a defined way to add sign-in, protect user sessions, and store authentication information. It also checks for existing authentication code and required Apple project settings before generating the flow.

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

auth-flow 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 8d 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.

Auth Flow Generator

Generate a complete authentication flow with Sign in with Apple, biometric authentication (Face ID/Touch ID), and secure Keychain storage.

When This Skill Activates

Use this skill when the user:

  • Asks to "add authentication" or "add login"
  • Mentions "Sign in with Apple" or "SIWA"
  • Wants "Face ID login" or "biometric auth"
  • Asks about "Keychain" or "secure storage"
  • Mentions "user session" or "auth token"

Pre-Generation Checks

1. Project Context Detection

  • Check for existing auth implementations
  • Check for AuthenticationServices framework usage
  • Verify entitlements file exists
  • Identify source file locations

2. Conflict Detection

Search for existing auth:

Glob: **/*Auth*.swift, **/*Keychain*.swift
Grep: "ASAuthorizationController" or "LAContext"

If found, ask user:

  • Replace existing implementation?
  • Extend with additional methods?

3. Required Capabilities

Sign in with Apple requires:

  • Add "Sign in with Apple" capability in Xcode
  • Configure in App Store Connect
  • Add entitlement: com.apple.developer.applesignin

Configuration Questions

Ask user via AskUserQuestion:

  1. Authentication methods? (multi-select)

    • Sign in with Apple
    • Biometrics (Face ID/Touch ID)
    • Both
  2. Session storage?

    • Keychain (secure, persists reinstall)
    • UserDefaults (simple, cleared on reinstall)
  3. Session management?

    • Auto-refresh tokens
    • Manual refresh
    • No token refresh needed

Generation Process

Step 1: Create Core Files

Generate these files:

  1. AuthenticationManager.swift - Core auth orchestration
  2. KeychainManager.swift - Secure storage
  3. SignInWithAppleManager.swift - SIWA handling
  4. BiometricAuthManager.swift - Face ID/Touch ID

Step 2: Create SwiftUI Components

Based on configuration:

  • SignInWithAppleButton.swift - SwiftUI button wrapper
  • AuthenticationView.swift - Complete auth UI

Step 3: Determine File Location

Check project structure:

  • If Sources/ exists → Sources/Auth/
  • If App/ exists → App/Auth/
  • Otherwise → Auth/

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
