Does this skill handle password security?

Yes, it implements industry-standard password hashing using the bcryptjs library to ensure user credentials are never stored in plain text.

Is this skill compliant with security best practices?

Yes, the skill follows OWASP guidelines, including recommendations for strong secrets, HTTPS usage, input validation, and token expiry management.

Can I implement different user levels like 'Admin' or 'User'?

Absolutely. The skill includes built-in patterns for Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to restrict specific API endpoints to authorized roles only.

Does it support token refreshing for better user experience?

Yes, it provides a complete implementation for managing long-lived refresh tokens and short-lived access tokens, allowing users to stay logged in securely.
