SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates adding Clerk authentication to a project by detecting the framework, fetching the official quickstart, and applying the recommended integration steps so developers avoid manual setup errors and mismatched configurations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Framework detection: Reads package.json to identify Next.js, Remix, Astro, Nuxt, React SPA, Express, Fastify, Expo, and other supported platforms.
  • Official quickstart application: Fetches the Clerk quickstart for the detected framework and follows installation, provider/middleware or proxy file creation, environment variable setup, and testing instructions.
  • Migration planning: Audits existing auth systems (for example NextAuth, Supabase, Firebase, Auth0, Passport) and outlines migration strategies including user export/import options and trickle or big-bang approaches.
  • Use Case: Convert a newly scaffolded Next.js app to Clerk with middleware/proxy and shadcn theming, or plan a controlled migration of 2000 users from an existing auth provider.

Quick Start

Use the clerk-setup skill to add Clerk authentication by detecting the framework, fetching the official quickstart, installing the appropriate Clerk SDK, creating provider or middleware/proxy files, and configuring the required environment variables.
