Test authenticated routes in the your project using cookie-based authentication.

What it does

Route Tester is an agent skill from Microck/ordinary-claude-skills. Test authenticated routes in the your project using cookie-based authentication. Use this skill when testing API endpoints, validating route functionality, or debugging authentication issues. Includes patterns for using test-auth-route.js and mock authentication.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `metadata.json`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Authentication, REST APIs and Debugging. The repository describes itself as: An unappealing collection of Claude Skills and resources.

When your agent uses it

  • Testing API endpoints
  • Validating route functionality
  • Debugging authentication issues

Example prompts

  • “/route-tester”

Requirements

  • Docker

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Gets a refresh token from Keycloak
  2. Signs the token with JWT secret from config.ini
  3. Creates cookie header: refresh_token=
  4. Makes the authenticated request
  5. Shows the exact curl command to reproduce manually

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1056d29. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node
    • curl
    • docker

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use curl and docker, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Route Tester loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 629 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~69
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:91
    # Add to service .env file (e.g., blog-api/.env)
  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:365
    ### .env (each service)
  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:381
    - `/.env` - Environment variables

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 629 words (~2,448 tokens).

“This skill provides patterns for testing authenticated routes in the your project using cookie-based JWT authentication.”
