About this skill

What it does

This skill provides a curated collection of security best practices specifically designed for configuring and securing better-auth, a popular authentication library. It helps developers implement robust identity management, session handling, and protection against common vulnerabilities like CSRF and brute-force attacks.

When to use it

  • Setting up production-ready authentication flows with industry-standard security configurations.
  • Hardening existing better-auth instances to prevent credential stuffing or token hijacking.
  • Integrating secure password policies and multi-factor authentication (MFA) strategies.
  • Ensuring compliance with security guidelines when deploying applications handling sensitive user data.

Key capabilities

  • Secure Configuration: Applies hardened defaults for the better-auth library to minimize attack surface.
  • Session Management: Implements best practices for token generation, rotation, and expiration.
  • Vulnerability Mitigation: Includes specific settings to guard against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) and other injection risks.
  • Password Security: Enforces strong password requirements and hashing standards.

Example prompts

  • "Configure better-auth with the security best practices outlined by connorads for a new user registration flow."
  • "Apply hardened session management settings to my existing authentication provider using this skill."
  • "Generate a secure initialization script for better-auth that includes CSRF protection and MFA support."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your application environment supports the specific cryptographic standards required by these best practices before deployment. Regularly update the underlying better-auth library to maintain compatibility with evolving security threats, even when using these configurations.
