Why does the skill insist on redirects being outside try/catch blocks?

Many modern frameworks like SvelteKit use thrown errors to trigger redirects; wrapping them in a try/catch block can inadvertently prevent the redirect from functioning.

How does this skill handle protected routes?

It utilizes guarded queries, forms, and commands to ensure only authorized users can access sensitive application endpoints.

What authentication library does this skill support?

This skill is specifically designed for Better-Auth integration, providing patterns for its API and setup.

Can this skill help with email verification?

Yes, it provides specific implementation patterns and reference guides for managing the full email verification flow.

Implements secure authentication workflows using Better-Auth with standardized patterns for login, registration, and protected routes.

Acerca de

This skill provides Claude with specialized knowledge for integrating Better-Auth into web applications, specifically focusing on server-side frameworks. It enforces security best practices such as utilizing getRequestEvent for session handling, managing redirects correctly outside of error blocks, and implementing guarded queries to protect sensitive endpoints. By providing clear implementation patterns for email verification and registration flows, it ensures a robust and secure authentication layer that handles headers, cookies, and protected data access efficiently.
