Add authentication and authorization to a Blazor Web App, accounting for the app's render mode. USE WHEN the user needs [Authorize] on pages, AuthorizeView, role or policy-based access, login/logout Identity pages, or AuthenticationStateProvider. Also USE WHEN auth state is null after WebAssembly loads, SignInManager throws in an interactive component, NotAuthorized content never renders in static SSR, or HttpContext.User is null in an interactive component. DO NOT USE for general component…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Configure Auth

## Step 1 — Read AGENTS.md

Read `AGENTS.md` at the workspace root for the project's interactivity mode and scope before making changes.

## Step 2 — Register auth services in Program.cs

```csharp
// Program.cs (server project)
builder.Services.AddCascadingAuthenticationState();
builder.Services.AddAuthorization();
```

For ASP.NET Core Identity add the Identity services:

```csharp
builder.Services.AddAuthentication(options =>
{
    options.DefaultScheme = IdentityConstants.ApplicationScheme;
    options.DefaultSignInScheme = IdentityConstants.ExternalScheme;
})
.AddIdentityCookies();

builder.Services.AddIdentityCore<ApplicationUser>()
    .AddRoles<IdentityRole>()
    .AddEntityFrameworkStores<ApplicationDbContext>()
    .AddSignInManager()
    .AddDefaultTokenProviders();
```

## Step 3 — Wire App.razor for auth and render mode

The `App.razor` component must use `AuthorizeRouteView` and conditionally apply the render mode so that pages excluded from interactive routing render statically.

```razor
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <HeadOutlet @rendermode="RenderModeForPage" />
</head>
<body>
    <Routes @rendermode="RenderModeForPage" />
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dotnet/skills/configure-auth@sha256:3163cf33820d5f8e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261005.c6ec97b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
