Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    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.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned mindrally/skills at 7682ca7771.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to securely manage user sign-in and authorization for Next.js applications using NextAuth.js (Auth.js v5). It provides expertise in implementing authentication workflows, ensuring proper session management, and configuring environment variables necessary for secure application development. The agent can guide you through the setup process and assist with integrating authentication providers like GitHub and Google.

When to use it

  • You're building a Next.js application and need help setting up user authentication.
  • You want to integrate social login providers (like GitHub or Google) into your application.
  • You require assistance configuring environment variables for secure authentication management.
  • You are implementing custom credential-based authentication within your Next.js app.

Key capabilities

  • Expertise in Auth.js v5 patterns and the auth() function.
  • Guidance on session management strategies (JWT or database).
  • Configuration of environment variables with the AUTH_ prefix (e.g., AUTH_SECRET, provider credentials).
  • Integration of authentication providers like GitHub, Google, and custom credentials.
  • Server-side session validation for sensitive operations.

Example prompts

  • "How do I configure NextAuth to use GitHub as a login provider?"
  • "What is the correct format for my AUTH_SECRET environment variable?"
  • "Can you show me an example of how to implement custom credential authentication with NextAuth?"
  • “Explain the difference between JWT and database session strategies in NextAuth.”

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires familiarity with Next.js development.
  • The skill assumes you have a Prisma setup for your application (as indicated by the PrismaAdapter usage).
  • Ensure you generate a strong, 32-byte secret for the AUTH_SECRET environment variable using openssl rand -base64 32.
