How do I define user permissions?

You can define permissions within the roles configuration block, specifying allowed actions (read, create, update, delete) for specific data entities.

What hashing algorithms are supported?

It supports plain, sha256, and bcrypt, with bcrypt being recommended as the best option for production use.

Can I use this for production environments?

Yes, the skill includes specific guidelines for production security hardening, such as using bcrypt and environment-variable-backed JWT secrets.

Can I auto-generate an admin user?

Yes, the skill provides a pattern for using the seed option to create an initial admin user automatically on the first run of the application.

API Development

Configures secure authentication systems for Bknd.io projects, including JWT, session cookies, and role-based access control.

About

This skill streamlines the initialization and configuration of the Bknd.io authentication layer within Claude Code. It provides domain-specific knowledge to implement secure password strategies, manage JWT signing secrets, configure browser session cookies, and define granular role-based permissions (RBAC). By utilizing this skill, developers can quickly move from basic development authentication to production-hardened security configurations while ensuring best practices for user registration and API protection.

Key Features

Bcrypt-based password hashing implementation
Automated admin user seeding patterns
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and permissions definition
Environment-specific security hardening (Dev vs Prod)
1 GitHub stars
JWT and session cookie security configuration

Use Cases

Initial authentication setup for a new Bknd.io backend project
Defining custom user roles and granular data access permissions
Migrating from development-only auth to production-ready security settings
