Passport Development

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Mentions Passport
• API authentication
• The user works with OAuth2
• Third-party API access

Example prompts

• “Use the passport-development skill to develop OAuth2 API authentication with Laravel Passport. An agent skill from trypostit/trypost”
• “/passport-development”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

1. 1Install Passport
2. 2Configure the User model
3. 3Configure the auth guard

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f9fc951. 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:

  • php

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

• Network

  No URLs in SKILL.md.

  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

Passport Development loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 170 tokens; SKILL.md has 601 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~170

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.9k

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

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.

description

Develops OAuth2 API authentication with Laravel Passport. Activates when installing or configuring Passport; setting up OAuth2 grants (authorization code, client credentials, personal access tokens, device authorization); managing OAuth clients; protecting API routes with token authentication; defining or checking token scopes; configuring SPA cookie authentication; handling token lifetimes and refresh tokens; or when the user mentions Passport, OAuth2, API tokens, bearer tokens, or API authentication. Make sure to use this skill whenever the user works with OAuth2, API tokens, or third-party API access, even if they don't explicitly mention Passport.
