What This Skill Does
Covers Better Auth server and client setup, including database adapter configuration, session management, plugin integration, and environment variable handling. Targets TypeScript projects using email/password auth, OAuth providers, or plugin-based features like two-factor and magic links. Better Auth has enough config surface area that small mistakes like confusing ORM model names with table names or missing a CLI re-run after adding plugins break auth silently, so having the exact rules in context prevents those bugs without digging through the docs each time.
