| description | Use when you need to design, review, or improve security in Quarkus applications — including Quarkus Security with JWT/OIDC, basic auth, @RolesAllowed / @Authenticated / @PermitAll, SecurityIdentity, permission checks, path-based authorization in configuration, exception mapping for auth failures, and sensitive-data-safe logging. This should trigger for requests such as Add Quarkus security support; Review Quarkus security configuration; Improve API authorization in Quarkus; Add JWT/OIDC security in Quarkus; Harden Quarkus authorization rules.

Quarkus Security Guidelines
Apply Quarkus security best practices with secure-by-default API and service boundaries.
What is covered in this Skill?
- Quarkus security configuration for authentication mechanisms
- Authorization with @RolesAllowed / @Authenticated / @PermitAll
- Endpoint and resource protection strategy
- Least-privilege role design
- Secure denial/error handling behavior
- Sensitive data protection in logs and responses
Scope: Apply recommendations based on the reference rules and good/bad examples.
Constraints
Before applying security changes, ensure the project compiles. After improvements, run full verification.
- MANDATORY: Run
./mvnw compile or mvn compile before applying any change
- SAFETY: If compilation fails, stop immediately
- VERIFY: Run
./mvnw clean verify or mvn clean verify after applying improvements
- BEFORE APPLYING: Read the reference for detailed rules and examples
When to use this skill
- Add Quarkus security support
- Review Quarkus security configuration
- Improve API authorization in Quarkus
- Add JWT/OIDC security in Quarkus
- Harden Quarkus authorization rules
- Implement SecurityIdentity checks in Quarkus services
Workflow
- Read reference and assess project context
Read references/404-frameworks-quarkus-security.md and inspect the current project setup before proposing changes.
- Gather scope and decide target improvements
Identify requested outcomes, constraints, and the minimum safe set of changes to apply.
- Apply framework-aligned changes
Implement or refactor security-related configuration/code following the reference patterns and project conventions.
- Run verification and report results
Execute appropriate build/tests and summarize what changed, what was verified, and any follow-up actions.
