audit-auth-flows SKILL.md skillA
This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
audit-auth-flows from kensaurus/skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add kensaurus/skills/audit-auth-flows@git:20260923.938ff43Pins git:20260923.938ff43 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Read-only audit of app-layer auth: route×gate matrix, session lifecycle, OAuth, provider traps (getSession vs getUser, middleware-only gates, CVE-2025-29927). Use when "audit our auth" or "check middleware protection". RLS → plan-rls-audit.
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
# audit-auth-flows — Middleware is edge routing, not a security boundary **Degree of freedom: MIXED — declared per phase** - Phases 0–4 (discovery, judgment): **[HIGH freedom]** — reason about what you find; checklists prompt investigation, they are not tick-scripts. - Phase 5 (live probes) and the getSession grep: **[LOW freedom — run exactly]** — a skipped probe is an unproven claim, not a saved step. Read-only. Map the auth surface and prove, route by route, that identity is verified where it matters. Then stop. Hand fixes to a follow-up session. **2026 consensus (official, post CVE-2025-29927):** Next.js middleware runs before cache and routing. Vercel: *"We do not recommend Middleware to be the sole method of protecting routes in your application."* An audit that only reads `middleware.ts` and declares the app safe has missed the point. Defense in depth: edge + route handler / server action + data layer. Each layer covers a different part of the request path. ## How to reason in this audit Every finding is recorded in this shape, in this order: 1. **Observe** — what does the code/probe actually show?

How to install
mdr add kensaurus/skills/audit-auth-flows@sha256:0a9740c83e21922fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.938ff43, 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.
