Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 2 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: clerk.com, dashboard.clerk.com.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to integrate Clerk's authentication and user management features directly into Next.js applications. It handles secure sign-in, sign-up, and session management without requiring manual backend implementation.

When to use it

  • You are building a Next.js application that requires user accounts or personalized content.
  • You need to implement social login providers like Google, GitHub, or Apple quickly.
  • Your project requires secure session handling and automatic redirection based on authentication status.
  • You want to avoid writing custom authentication logic from scratch using Clerk's pre-built SDKs.

Key capabilities

  • Seamless integration with Next.js 13+ App Router and Pages Router.
  • Support for multiple sign-in methods including email, magic links, and social providers.
  • Automatic user session management and profile data retrieval.
  • Pre-configured middleware for protecting routes based on authentication state.

Example prompts

  • "Set up Clerk authentication in my Next.js project so users can sign in with Google."
  • "Create a protected dashboard route that only loads if the user is authenticated via Clerk."
  • "How do I display the current user's profile picture and name using the Clerk Next.js SDK?"

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your Next.js version is compatible with the specific Clerk SDK version required by this skill. Always test authentication flows in both development and production environments to verify session persistence across redirects.
