# Auth Checker

Scan your auth implementation for security holes. Catches the stuff that gets you hacked.

## Quick Start

```bash
npx ai-auth-check ./src/auth/
```

## What It Does

- Audits login/signup flows for vulnerabilities
- Checks session management security
- Identifies weak password policies
- Flags insecure token handling

## Usage Examples

```bash
# Audit auth directory
npx ai-auth-check ./src/auth/

# Scan specific auth file
npx ai-auth-check ./src/lib/auth.ts

# Full project scan
npx ai-auth-check ./src --recursive
```

## What It Catches

- Hardcoded credentials
- Missing rate limiting
- Insecure session storage
- JWT vulnerabilities
- Missing CSRF protection
- Weak password validation

## Requirements

Node.js 18+. OPENAI_API_KEY required.

Overview

This skill audits authentication flows to find security vulnerabilities before they reach production. It analyzes login, signup, session handling, tokens, and password policies to flag common and subtle issues. Use it to get actionable findings and remediation hints for auth-related code.

How this skill works

The tool scans specified source paths for auth-related code patterns, configuration, and runtime handling. It looks for hardcoded secrets, weak password rules, missing rate limits, insecure session or token storage, JWT issues, and absent CSRF protections. Output includes a prioritized list of findings with recommendations and code locations to inspect.

When to use it

Before deployment to verify authentication and session handling are secure
During code review to catch auth anti-patterns early
When onboarding new auth libraries or changing token/session storage
After a security incident to identify related auth weak points
As part of CI/CD to prevent regressions in auth security

Best practices

Scan the auth directory and any files that touch tokens, cookies, or credentials
Run scans in CI with NODE >= 18 and ensure OPENAI_API_KEY is set securely
Treat findings as prioritized tickets: fix hardcoded secrets and missing rate limits first
Combine automated findings with manual review for business logic flaws
Use scan results to improve tests: add unit/integration tests for auth flows

Example use cases

Audit a login/signup implementation to identify missing CSRF or weak validations
Scan a project for hardcoded credentials or exposed API keys in auth modules
Validate session management and cookie flags across an application
Check JWT creation/verification code for common vulnerabilities
Integrate into CI to block merges that introduce new auth issues

FAQ

What inputs does the scanner need?

Point it at source paths or specific files containing auth logic; it supports directory and file scanning modes.

Does it fix issues automatically?

No. The tool reports findings and remediation suggestions; developers apply fixes and re-scan.
