What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps engineers identify and resolve cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) failures that block browser requests, including missing or misconfigured Access-Control headers, failing preflight OPTIONS responses, and credential-related errors.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided Troubleshooting: Step-by-step inspection of browser console messages, network preflight checks, and header mismatches.
  • Backend Configuration Examples: Concrete configuration snippets for Express, FastAPI, and Django to set origins, methods, headers, credentials, and preflight responses.
  • Frontend Guidance & Testing: Advice for fetch/axios credential handling, curl-based preflight testing, and CDN/proxy considerations for origin detection.
  • Use Case: Reproduce a blocked API call from a production frontend, verify preflight responses, and update server or proxy configuration to return the correct Access-Control-* headers.

Quick Start

Reproduce the failing browser request, capture the request and response headers (including any OPTIONS preflight), and share them for targeted diagnosis.
