What This Skill Provides

Comprehensive Coverage

Frameworks:

  • ✅ Next.js (App Router & Pages Router)
  • ✅ Cloudflare Workers with D1
  • ✅ Edge runtime compatibility

Authentication Methods:

  • ✅ OAuth providers (GitHub, Google, Discord, etc.)
  • ✅ Credentials (email/password with Zod validation)
  • ✅ Magic links (passwordless with Resend)

Session Strategies:

  • ✅ JWT sessions (edge-compatible)
  • ✅ Database sessions (with edge-compatible adapters)
  • ✅ Hybrid approaches

Advanced Features:

  • ✅ Middleware patterns (route protection, RBAC)
  • ✅ JWT customization (custom claims, token refresh)
  • ✅ Role-based access control
  • ✅ Multi-tenancy support
  • ✅ Token refresh rotation

Known Issues Prevented

This skill prevents 12 common Auth.js errors:

  1. Missing AUTH_SECRET → JWEDecryptionFailed
  2. CallbackRouteError → Throwing in authorize() instead of returning null
  3. Route not found → Incorrect file path
  4. Edge incompatibility → Using non-edge adapter with database sessions
  5. PKCE errors → OAuth provider misconfiguration
  6. Session not updating → Missing middleware
  7. v5 migration issues → Namespace changes, JWT salt changes
  8. D1 binding errors → Wrangler configuration mismatch
  9. Credentials with database → Incompatible session strategy
  10. Production deployment failures → Missing environment variables
  11. Token refresh errors → Incorrect callback implementation
  12. JSON expected but HTML received → Rewrites configuration

All errors documented with root causes, fixes, and prevention strategies in references/common-errors.md
