Auth.js v5 Authentication Stack

Production-tested: Multiple Next.js and Cloudflare Workers projects Last Updated: 2025-10-26 Status: Production Ready ✅ Official Docs: https://authjs.dev

⚠️ BEFORE YOU START (READ THIS!)

CRITICAL FOR AI AGENTS: If you're Claude Code helping a user set up Auth.js:

Explicitly state you're using this skill at the start of the conversation
Reference patterns from the skill rather than general knowledge
Prevent known issues listed in
```
references/common-errors.md
```
Don't guess - if unsure, check the skill documentation

USER ACTION REQUIRED: Tell Claude to check this skill first!

Say: "I'm setting up Auth.js - check the auth-js skill first"

Why This Matters (Real-World Results)

Without skill activation:

❌ Setup time: ~15 minutes
❌ Errors encountered: 3-5 (AUTH_SECRET, CallbackRouteError, edge issues)
❌ Manual fixes needed: 3-4 commits
❌ Token usage: ~15k
❌ User confidence: Multiple debugging sessions

With skill activation:

✅ Setup time: ~3 minutes
✅ Errors encountered: 0
✅ Manual fixes needed: 0

✅ User confidence: Instant success

Known Issues This Skill Prevents

Missing AUTH_SECRET → JWEDecryptionFailed error
CallbackRouteError → Throwing in authorize() instead of returning null
Route not found → Incorrect file path for [...nextauth].js
Edge incompatibility → Using database session without edge-compatible adapter
PKCE errors → OAuth provider misconfiguration
Session not updating → Missing middleware
v5 migration issues → Namespace changes, JWT salt changes
D1 binding errors → Wrangler configuration mismatch
Credentials with database → Incompatible session strategy
Production deployment failures → Missing environment variables
Token refresh errors → Incorrect callback implementation
JSON expected but HTML received → Rewrites configuration in Next.js 15

All of these are handled automatically when the skill is active.

Quick Start: Next.js

Prerequisites

# Next.js 15+ with App Router
npm create next-app@latest my-app
cd my-app

Installation

npm install next-auth@latest
npm install @auth/core@latest

# Choose your database adapter (if using database sessions)
npm install @auth/prisma-adapter  # For PostgreSQL/MySQL
npm install @auth/d1-adapter      # For Cloudflare D1

1. Create Auth Configuration

Option A: Simple Setup (JWT sessions, no database)

// auth.ts
import NextAuth from "next-auth"
import GitHub from "next-auth/providers/github"

export const { handlers, auth, signIn, signOut } = NextAuth({
  providers: [
    GitHub({
      clientId: process.env.AUTH_GITHUB_ID,
      clientSecret: process.env.AUTH_GITHUB_SECRET,
    }),
  ],
})

Option B: Edge-Compatible Setup (recommended for middleware)

// auth.config.ts (edge-compatible, no database)
import type { NextAuthConfig } from "next-auth"
import GitHub from "next-auth/providers/github"

export default {
  providers: [
    GitHub({
      clientId: process.env.AUTH_GITHUB_ID,
      clientSecret: process.env.AUTH_GITHUB_SECRET,
    }),
  ],
} satisfies NextAuthConfig

// auth.ts (full config with database)
import NextAuth from "next-auth"
import { PrismaAdapter } from "@auth/prisma-adapter"
import { PrismaClient } from "@prisma/client"
import authConfig from "./auth.config"

const prisma = new PrismaClient()

export const { handlers, auth, signIn, signOut } = NextAuth({
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma),
  session: { strategy: "jwt" }, // CRITICAL: Force JWT for edge compatibility
  ...authConfig,
})

2. Create API Route Handler

// app/api/auth/[...nextauth]/route.ts
import { handlers } from "@/auth"

export const { GET, POST } = handlers

3. Add Middleware (Optional but Recommended)

// middleware.ts
export { auth as middleware } from "@/auth"

export const config = {
  matcher: ["/((?!api|_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)"],
}

4. Environment Variables

# .env.local
AUTH_SECRET=your-secret-here  # Generate with: npx auth secret
AUTH_GITHUB_ID=your_github_client_id
AUTH_GITHUB_SECRET=your_github_client_secret

# CRITICAL: In production, AUTH_SECRET is REQUIRED

5. Use in Components

Server Component (App Router):

import { auth } from "@/auth"

export default async function Dashboard() {
  const session = await auth()

  if (!session?.user) {
    return <p>Not authenticated</p>
  }

  return <p>Welcome {session.user.name}</p>
}

Client Component:

"use client"
import { useSession } from "next-auth/react"

export default function ClientDashboard() {
  const { data: session, status } = useSession()

  if (status === "loading") return <p>Loading...</p>
  if (status === "unauthenticated") return <p>Not authenticated</p>

  return <p>Welcome {session?.user?.name}</p>
}

6. Sign In / Sign Out

import { signIn, signOut } from "@/auth"

export function SignIn() {
  return (
    <form
      action={async () => {
        "use server"
        await signIn("github")
      }}
    >
      <button type="submit">Sign in with GitHub</button>
    </form>
  )
}

export function SignOut() {
  return (
    <form
      action={async () => {
        "use server"
        await signOut()
      }}
    >
      <button type="submit">Sign Out</button>
    </form>
  )
}

Quick Start: Cloudflare Workers

Prerequisites

npm create cloudflare@latest my-auth-worker
cd my-auth-worker

Installation

npm install @auth/core@latest
npm install @auth/d1-adapter@latest
npm install hono

1. Configure Wrangler with D1

// wrangler.jsonc
{
  "name": "my-auth-worker",
  "main": "src/index.ts",
  "compatibility_date": "2025-10-26",
  "d1_databases": [
    {
      "binding": "DB",
      "database_name": "auth_db",
      "database_id": "your-database-id"
    }
  ]
}

2. Create D1 Database

# Create database
npx wrangler d1 create auth_db

# Copy the database_id to wrangler.jsonc

# Create tables
npx wrangler d1 execute auth_db --file=./schema.sql

schema.sql:

-- See templates/cloudflare-workers/schema.sql for complete schema
CREATE TABLE users (
  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
  name TEXT,
  email TEXT UNIQUE NOT NULL,
  emailVerified INTEGER,
  image TEXT
);

CREATE TABLE accounts (
  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
  userId TEXT NOT NULL,
  type TEXT NOT NULL,
  provider TEXT NOT NULL,
  providerAccountId TEXT NOT NULL,
  refresh_token TEXT,
  access_token TEXT,
  expires_at INTEGER,
  token_type TEXT,
  scope TEXT,
  id_token TEXT,
  session_state TEXT,
  FOREIGN KEY (userId) REFERENCES users(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
  UNIQUE(provider, providerAccountId)
);

CREATE TABLE sessions (
  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
  userId TEXT NOT NULL,
  expires INTEGER NOT NULL,
  sessionToken TEXT UNIQUE NOT NULL,
  FOREIGN KEY (userId) REFERENCES users(id) ON DELETE CASCADE
);

CREATE TABLE verification_tokens (
  identifier TEXT NOT NULL,
  token TEXT UNIQUE NOT NULL,
  expires INTEGER NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (identifier, token)
);

3. Create Worker with Auth

// src/index.ts
import { Hono } from 'hono'
import { Auth } from '@auth/core'
import { D1Adapter } from '@auth/d1-adapter'
import GitHub from '@auth/core/providers/github'

type Bindings = {
  DB: D1Database
  AUTH_SECRET: string
  AUTH_GITHUB_ID: string
  AUTH_GITHUB_SECRET: string
}

const app = new Hono<{ Bindings: Bindings }>()

app.all('/api/auth/*', async (c) => {
  const response = await Auth(c.req.raw, {
    adapter: D1Adapter(c.env.DB),
    providers: [
      GitHub({
        clientId: c.env.AUTH_GITHUB_ID,
        clientSecret: c.env.AUTH_GITHUB_SECRET,
      }),
    ],
    secret: c.env.AUTH_SECRET,
    trustHost: true,
  })
  return response
})

app.get('/', async (c) => {
  // Example: Get session
  const session = await Auth(c.req.raw, {
    adapter: D1Adapter(c.env.DB),
    providers: [],
    secret: c.env.AUTH_SECRET,
  })

  return c.json({ session })
})

export default app

4. Environment Variables

# Add secrets to Cloudflare Workers
npx wrangler secret put AUTH_SECRET
npx wrangler secret put AUTH_GITHUB_ID
npx wrangler secret put AUTH_GITHUB_SECRET

5. Deploy

npx wrangler deploy

Core Concepts

Session Strategies

Auth.js v5 supports two session strategies:

JWT (JSON Web Token) - Default when no adapter configured
- ✅ Works in edge runtime
- ✅ No database queries for sessions
- ✅ Fast and scalable
- ❌ Cannot invalidate sessions server-side
- ❌ Token size limits
Database - Default when adapter configured
- ✅ Full session control (invalidate, extend)
- ✅ Audit trail in database
- ✅ No token size limits
- ❌ Requires database query per request
- ❌ Not compatible with all edge runtimes

Decision Matrix:

Use Case	Recommended Strategy	Reason
Next.js App Router	JWT	Edge runtime compatibility
Cloudflare Workers	JWT or Database (with D1)	D1 is edge-compatible
Traditional Node.js	Database	Full session control
High security	Database	Can invalidate sessions
Read-only sessions	JWT	No database overhead

See

references/session-strategies.md

for detailed comparison.

Session Strategies

JWT Sessions (Default)

When to use:

Edge runtime deployment (Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge)
No database adapter configured
Read-only session data
High-traffic applications (no DB queries)

Configuration:

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  session: {
    strategy: "jwt",
    maxAge: 30 * 24 * 60 * 60, // 30 days
  },
  providers: [GitHub],
})

⚠️ CRITICAL: Even if you have an adapter configured, you MUST explicitly set

strategy: "jwt"

for edge runtime compatibility!

Database Sessions

When to use:

Node.js runtime (not edge)
Need to invalidate sessions server-side
Compliance requirements (audit trail)
Session data larger than JWT limits

Configuration:

import { PrismaAdapter } from "@auth/prisma-adapter"

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma),
  session: {
    strategy: "database",
    maxAge: 30 * 24 * 60 * 60,
    updateAge: 24 * 60 * 60, // Update session every 24 hours
  },
  providers: [GitHub],
})

⚠️ Edge Runtime Limitation:

If your adapter is NOT edge-compatible, you CANNOT use database sessions in edge runtime (middleware). Split your config:

// auth.config.ts (edge-compatible)
export default {
  providers: [GitHub],
} satisfies NextAuthConfig

// auth.ts (full config with database)
import authConfig from "./auth.config"

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma), // Not edge-compatible
  session: { strategy: "jwt" }, // FORCE JWT for middleware
  ...authConfig,
})

Provider Setup

OAuth Providers (GitHub, Google, etc.)

GitHub:

import GitHub from "next-auth/providers/github"

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  providers: [
    GitHub({
      clientId: process.env.AUTH_GITHUB_ID,
      clientSecret: process.env.AUTH_GITHUB_SECRET,
    }),
  ],
})

Google (with token refresh):

import Google from "next-auth/providers/google"

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  providers: [
    Google({
      clientId: process.env.AUTH_GOOGLE_ID,
      clientSecret: process.env.AUTH_GOOGLE_SECRET,
      authorization: {
        params: {
          prompt: "consent",
          access_type: "offline",
          response_type: "code",
        },
      },
    }),
  ],
})

See

templates/providers/oauth-github-google.ts

for complete example.

Credentials Provider (Email/Password)

⚠️ CRITICAL: The Credentials provider ONLY supports JWT sessions!

import Credentials from "next-auth/providers/credentials"
import { z } from "zod"
import bcrypt from "bcryptjs"

const signInSchema = z.object({
  email: z.string().email(),
  password: z.string().min(8),
})

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  providers: [
    Credentials({
      credentials: {
        email: { label: "Email", type: "email" },
        password: { label: "Password", type: "password" },
      },
      authorize: async (credentials) => {
        try {
          const { email, password } = await signInSchema.parseAsync(credentials)

          // Fetch user from database
          const user = await db.user.findUnique({ where: { email } })

          if (!user || !user.password) {
            // CRITICAL: Return null, DON'T throw
            return null
          }

          const passwordMatch = await bcrypt.compare(password, user.password)

          if (!passwordMatch) {
            return null
          }

          // Return user object
          return {
            id: user.id,
            email: user.email,
            name: user.name,
          }
        } catch (error) {
          // CRITICAL: Return null on error, DON'T throw
          console.error("Auth error:", error)
          return null
        }
      },
    }),
  ],
})

⚠️ CRITICAL RULES:

NEVER throw errors in
```
authorize()
```
- always return
```
null
```
Why? Throwing errors causes
```
CallbackRouteError
```
instead of
```
CredentialsSignin
```
Always validate with Zod before checking credentials
Hash passwords with bcrypt, never store plain text

See

templates/providers/credentials.ts

for complete example.

Magic Link Provider (Passwordless)

⚠️ CRITICAL: Magic links REQUIRE a database adapter!

import Resend from "next-auth/providers/resend"
import { PrismaAdapter } from "@auth/prisma-adapter"

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma), // REQUIRED
  providers: [
    Resend({
      apiKey: process.env.AUTH_RESEND_KEY,
      from: "noreply@example.com",
    }),
  ],
})

See

templates/providers/magic-link-resend.ts

for complete example.

Database Adapters

Cloudflare D1 Adapter

Installation:

npm install @auth/d1-adapter@latest

Wrangler Configuration:

// wrangler.jsonc
{
  "d1_databases": [
    {
      "binding": "DB",
      "database_name": "auth_db",
      "database_id": "your-database-id"
    }
  ]
}

Usage:

import { D1Adapter } from "@auth/d1-adapter"

// Cloudflare Workers
const app = new Hono<{ Bindings: { DB: D1Database } }>()

app.all('/api/auth/*', async (c) => {
  return await Auth(c.req.raw, {
    adapter: D1Adapter(c.env.DB),
    providers: [GitHub],
  })
})

// Next.js (with D1 via wrangler)
export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: D1Adapter(env.DB),
  session: { strategy: "jwt" }, // Recommended for edge
  providers: [GitHub],
})

Database Schema:

See

templates/cloudflare-workers/schema.sql

for complete schema.

Edge Compatibility: ✅ D1 is fully edge-compatible!

Prisma Adapter (PostgreSQL/MySQL)

Installation:

npm install @auth/prisma-adapter@latest
npm install @prisma/client@latest
npm install -D prisma@latest

Prisma Schema:

// prisma/schema.prisma
generator client {
  provider = "prisma-client-js"
}

datasource db {
  provider = "postgresql"
  url      = env("DATABASE_URL")
}

model User {
  id            String    @id @default(cuid())
  name          String?
  email         String    @unique
  emailVerified DateTime?
  image         String?
  accounts      Account[]
  sessions      Session[]
}

model Account {
  id                String  @id @default(cuid())
  userId            String
  type              String
  provider          String
  providerAccountId String
  refresh_token     String? @db.Text
  access_token      String? @db.Text
  expires_at        Int?
  token_type        String?
  scope             String?
  id_token          String? @db.Text
  session_state     String?

  user User @relation(fields: [userId], references: [id], onDelete: Cascade)

  @@unique([provider, providerAccountId])
}

model Session {
  id           String   @id @default(cuid())
  sessionToken String   @unique
  userId       String
  expires      DateTime
  user         User     @relation(fields: [userId], references: [id], onDelete: Cascade)
}

model VerificationToken {
  identifier String
  token      String   @unique
  expires    DateTime

  @@unique([identifier, token])
}

Usage:

import { PrismaAdapter } from "@auth/prisma-adapter"
import { PrismaClient } from "@prisma/client"

const prisma = new PrismaClient()

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma),
  session: { strategy: "jwt" }, // For edge compatibility
  providers: [GitHub],
})

Edge Compatibility: ❌ Prisma is NOT edge-compatible by default

Workaround: Use Prisma Accelerate or Hyperdrive for edge compatibility, OR force JWT sessions and don't use the adapter in middleware.

See

templates/database-adapters/prisma-postgresql.ts

for complete example.

Middleware Patterns

Session Keep-Alive

// middleware.ts
export { auth as middleware } from "@/auth"

export const config = {
  matcher: ["/((?!api|_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)"],
}

This automatically updates session expiry on every request.

Route Protection

// middleware.ts
import { auth } from "@/auth"
import { NextResponse } from "next/server"

export default auth((req) => {
  const { pathname } = req.nextUrl

  // Protect /dashboard routes
  if (pathname.startsWith("/dashboard")) {
    if (!req.auth) {
      const loginUrl = new URL("/login", req.url)
      loginUrl.searchParams.set("callbackUrl", pathname)
      return NextResponse.redirect(loginUrl)
    }
  }

  return NextResponse.next()
})

export const config = {
  matcher: ["/((?!api|_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)"],
}

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

// auth.ts
export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  providers: [GitHub],
  callbacks: {
    async jwt({ token, user }) {
      // Add role to JWT on sign in
      if (user) {
        token.role = user.role
      }
      return token
    },
    async session({ session, token }) {
      // Expose role to session
      if (session.user) {
        session.user.role = token.role
      }
      return session
    },
  },
})

// middleware.ts
import { auth } from "@/auth"
import { NextResponse } from "next/server"

export default auth((req) => {
  const { pathname } = req.nextUrl

  // Protect /admin routes (require admin role)
  if (pathname.startsWith("/admin")) {
    if (!req.auth || req.auth.user.role !== "admin") {
      return NextResponse.redirect(new URL("/unauthorized", req.url))
    }
  }

  return NextResponse.next()
})

See

references/middleware-patterns.md

and

templates/advanced/role-based-access.ts

for complete examples.

Advanced Features

JWT Callbacks (Custom Claims)

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  providers: [GitHub],
  callbacks: {
    async jwt({ token, user, account }) {
      // On sign in
      if (user) {
        token.id = user.id
        token.role = user.role
      }

      // On subsequent requests
      return token
    },
    async session({ session, token }) {
      // Expose custom claims to session
      session.user.id = token.id
      session.user.role = token.role
      return session
    },
  },
})

Token Refresh (OAuth)

Google OAuth with token refresh:

import Google from "next-auth/providers/google"

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  providers: [
    Google({
      authorization: {
        params: {
          prompt: "consent",
          access_type: "offline",
          response_type: "code",
        },
      },
    }),
  ],
  callbacks: {
    async jwt({ token, account }) {
      // First-time login, save tokens
      if (account) {
        return {
          ...token,
          access_token: account.access_token,
          expires_at: account.expires_at,
          refresh_token: account.refresh_token,
        }
      }

      // Subsequent logins, check if token expired
      if (Date.now() < token.expires_at * 1000) {
        return token
      }

      // Token expired, refresh it
      try {
        const response = await fetch("https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token", {
          method: "POST",
          body: new URLSearchParams({
            client_id: process.env.AUTH_GOOGLE_ID!,
            client_secret: process.env.AUTH_GOOGLE_SECRET!,
            grant_type: "refresh_token",
            refresh_token: token.refresh_token!,
          }),
        })

        const newTokens = await response.json()

        return {
          ...token,
          access_token: newTokens.access_token,
          expires_at: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000 + newTokens.expires_in),
          refresh_token: newTokens.refresh_token ?? token.refresh_token,
        }
      } catch (error) {
        console.error("Token refresh error:", error)
        token.error = "RefreshTokenError"
        return token
      }
    },
    async session({ session, token }) {
      session.error = token.error
      return session
    },
  },
})

See

templates/advanced/jwt-refresh-tokens.ts

for complete example.

Critical Rules

✅ Always Do:

Set AUTH_SECRET in production

# Generate secret
npx auth secret

# Add to .env.local
AUTH_SECRET=your-generated-secret

Return

null

(not throw) in Credentials authorize()

authorize: async (credentials) => {
  if (!validUser) {
    return null // ✅ Correct
    // throw new Error("Invalid") // ❌ WRONG - causes CallbackRouteError
  }
}

Use adapter for Magic Links

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma), // REQUIRED for magic links
  providers: [Resend],
})

Split config for edge compatibility

// auth.config.ts (edge-compatible)
export default { providers: [GitHub] }

// auth.ts (full config with database)
export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma),
  session: { strategy: "jwt" }, // Force JWT for edge
  ...authConfig,
})

Force JWT sessions when using non-edge adapter

export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma), // Not edge-compatible
  session: { strategy: "jwt" }, // CRITICAL
})

❌ Never Do:

Deploy without AUTH_SECRET

// WRONG - will fail in production
// Missing AUTH_SECRET environment variable

Throw errors in authorize()

authorize: async (credentials) => {
  throw new Error("Invalid credentials") // ❌ Causes CallbackRouteError
}

Use deprecated @next-auth/ adapters*

npm install @next-auth/prisma-adapter  # ❌ Deprecated
npm install @auth/prisma-adapter       # ✅ Correct (v5)

Use database session without edge-compatible adapter in middleware

// WRONG - Prisma not edge-compatible
export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma),
  session: { strategy: "database" }, // ❌ Fails in middleware

Common Errors & Fixes

1. Missing AUTH_SECRET

Error:

JWEDecryptionFailed: Invalid secret

Cause: Missing or incorrect

AUTH_SECRET

environment variable

Fix:

# Generate secret
npx auth secret

# Add to .env.local
AUTH_SECRET=your-generated-secret

# In production (Vercel, Cloudflare, etc.)
# Add AUTH_SECRET as environment variable in dashboard

2. CallbackRouteError

Error:

CallbackRouteError: Illegal arguments: string, undefined

Cause: Throwing errors in

authorize()

callback

Fix:

// WRONG
authorize: async (credentials) => {
  if (!user) throw new Error("Invalid credentials")
}

// CORRECT
authorize: async (credentials) => {
  if (!user) return null
  return user
}

3. Route Not Found

Error:

Error: next-auth route not found

Cause: Incorrect file path for API route handler

Fix:

// Ensure file is at EXACT path:
// app/api/auth/[...nextauth]/route.ts

import { handlers } from "@/auth"
export const { GET, POST } = handlers

4. Edge Compatibility Error

Error:

Module not compatible with edge runtime

Cause: Using non-edge adapter with database session strategy

Fix:

// Option 1: Force JWT sessions
export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: PrismaAdapter(prisma),
  session: { strategy: "jwt" }, // ✅
})

// Option 2: Use edge-compatible adapter (D1)
export const { handlers, auth } = NextAuth({
  adapter: D1Adapter(env.DB), // ✅ Edge-compatible
  session: { strategy: "database" },
})

5. Session Not Updating

Error: Session expires but doesn't refresh

Cause: Missing middleware

Fix:

// middleware.ts
export { auth as middleware } from "@/auth"

export const config = {
  matcher: ["/((?!api|_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)"],
}
