This skill provides a structured approach to testing authenticated routes by automating cookie-based JWT authentication for API endpoints, reducing manual setup and debugging time.
Run test-auth-route.js against a target URL with the desired HTTP method and data to perform an authenticated request.

To test API routes protected with cookie-based JWT authentication, you can automate token retrieval, sign it with a local secret, construct the cookie header, and execute authenticated GET or POST requests against protected endpoints.
Automating Keycloak token retrieval involves fetching refresh tokens from the Keycloak server, signing them locally with a configured JWT secret, and injecting the resulting token into cookie headers for authenticated API route testing.
Yes, you can use optional mock authentication to validate GET and POST flows against protected resources without relying on a live Keycloak server, allowing you to test authenticated routes locally.
The best way to debug authenticated API requests using cookie headers is to execute the requests with verbose output, allowing you to reproduce and inspect the token signing, cookie construction, and request execution steps.
Yes, this approach supports testing both GET and POST HTTP methods across multiple backend services to validate protected resources and debug authentication workflows like workflow start and step completion checks.
Authenticated route tests using cookie-based JWT tokens often fail due to incorrect token signing with the configured secret or malformed cookie headers, which can be identified by examining the verbose output of the request execution.
