What it does

Auth Sec is an agent skill from yaklang/hack-skills. Entry P1 category router for authentication and authorization. Use when testing login flows, sessions, object authorization, JWT, OAuth, CORS, CSRF, and enterprise SSO weaknesses before any deeper auth topic skill.

Its SKILL.md is about 590 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Authentication, Web application vulnerabilities and OAuth and OpenID Connect. The repository describes itself as: Helping AI Agent become an awesome practical hacker! The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Testing login flows
  • Object authorization
  • Enterprise SSO weaknesses before any deeper auth topic skill

Example prompts

  • “/auth-sec”

Workflow steps

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

  1. First confirm the authentication model and session boundaries
  2. Then confirm object-level and function-level authorization
  3. Then move to token, cross-origin, and protocol details
  4. If enterprise federation exists, continue with OAuth, OIDC, or SAML topics

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6fbf0bc. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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

Auth Sec loads about 591 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 215 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~591

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 passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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.

Authentication and Authorization Router

This is the routing entry point for authentication, sessions, and authorization boundaries.

Use it to decide whether the issue is mainly login mechanics, object-level authorization, browser trust boundaries, or identity protocols such as OAuth/JWT/SAML before going deeper.

When to Use

  • The target includes login, registration, password reset, 2FA, sessions, JWT, OAuth, or SSO
  • You suspect object authorization flaws, cross-tenant access, cross-origin reads, CSRF, or protocol misconfiguration
  • You need to decide whether to test authentication or authorization first

Skill Map

  1. First confirm the authentication model and session boundaries
  2. Then confirm object-level and function-level authorization
  3. Then move to token, cross-origin, and protocol details
  4. If enterprise federation exists, continue with OAuth, OIDC, or SAML topics
