Which frameworks does this skill support?

It currently supports Express, Fastify, Next.js API routes, and FastAPI (Python).

Can I implement roles and permissions?

Yes, the skill includes patterns for Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) utilizing Clerk's public metadata to restrict access to specific routes.

How do I verify the authentication setup?

The skill includes a dedicated testing script that checks for 401 Unauthorized responses, valid token acceptance, and user context availability.

Does it handle JWT validation automatically?

Yes, it provides templates and setup scripts that configure middleware to verify Clerk-issued JWTs and attach user identity to the request context.

Does it help with client-side integration?

Yes, it can generate type-safe API clients for REST and GraphQL that automatically handle token attachment and refresh logic.

API開発

Secures backend APIs using Clerk JWT middleware and route protection patterns across multiple frameworks.

概要

This skill streamlines the implementation of robust security layers for backend services by integrating Clerk's authentication platform. It provides developers with ready-to-use middleware, JWT validation logic, and role-based access control (RBAC) patterns for Express, Next.js, FastAPI, and GraphQL. By automating the setup of protected routes and generating type-safe, authenticated API clients, it ensures that sensitive data remains secure while significantly reducing the boilerplate code required for professional-grade identity management.
