Use when adding authentication or login to any app - detects your stack (React, Next.js, Vue, Nuxt, Angular, Express, Fastify, React Native), sets up an Auth0 account if needed, and routes to the correct SDK setup workflow.
Detect your framework and get started with Auth0 authentication.
Run this command to identify your framework:
# Check package.json dependencies
cat package.json | grep -E "react|next|vue|nuxt|angular|express|fastify|@nestjs"
# Or check project files
ls -la | grep -E "angular.json|vue.config.js|next.config"
Framework Detection Table:
| Framework | Detection | Skill to Use |
|---|---|---|
| React (Vite/CRA) | "react" in package.json, no Next.js | auth0-react |
| Next.js | "next" in package.json | auth0-nextjs |
| Vue.js | "vue" in package.json, no Nuxt | auth0-vue |
| Nuxt |
"nuxt" in package.json |
auth0-nuxt |
| Angular | angular.json exists or "@angular/core" | auth0-angular |
| Express.js | "express" in package.json | auth0-express |
| Fastify (web app) | "fastify" in package.json, has @fastify/view | auth0-fastify |
| Fastify (API) | "fastify" in package.json, no view engine | auth0-fastify-api |
| React Native | "react-native" or "expo" in package.json | auth0-react-native |

macOS/Linux:
brew install auth0/auth0-cli/auth0
Windows:
scoop install auth0
# Or: choco install auth0-cli
Full installation guide: See CLI Reference
auth0 login
This opens your browser to authenticate with Auth0.
Choose application type based on your framework:
Single Page Applications (React, Vue, Angular):
auth0 apps create --name "My App" --type spa \
--callbacks "http://localhost:3000" \
--logout-urls "http://localhost:3000" \
--metadata "created_by=agent_skills"
Regular Web Apps (Next.js, Nuxt, Express, Fastify):
auth0 apps create --name "My App" --type regular \
--callbacks "http://localhost:3000/api/auth/callback" \
--logout-urls "http://localhost:3000" \
--metadata "created_by=agent_skills"
Native Apps (React Native):
auth0 apps create --name "My App" --type native \
--callbacks "myapp://callback" \
--logout-urls "myapp://logout" \
--metadata "created_by=agent_skills"
Get your credentials:
auth0 apps list # Find your app
auth0 apps show <app-id> # Get client ID and secret

Migrating from another auth provider? Use the auth0-migration skill.
The migration skill covers:
Framework-specific environment variable setup:
Core concepts and troubleshooting:
Complete Auth0 CLI reference:
| Mistake | Fix |
|---|---|
| Wrong application type | SPAs need "Single Page Application", server apps need "Regular Web Application", mobile needs "Native" |
| Callback URL not configured | Add your app's callback URL to Allowed Callback URLs in Auth0 Dashboard |
| Using wrong credentials | Client Secret only needed for Regular Web Apps, not SPAs |
| Hardcoding credentials in code | Always use environment variables, never commit secrets to git |
| Not testing locally first | Set up localhost URLs in Auth0 before deploying to production |
| Mixing application types | Don't use SPA SDK for server-side apps or vice versa |
