@fastify/basic-auth

@fastify/basic-auth is an npm package that provides a Basic authentication plugin for the Fastify web framework.

It is licensed under MIT.

@agentskit/doc-bridge

@agentskit/doc-bridge is a TypeScript npm package and CLI (ak-docs) that turns repository documentation into structured handoffs for coding agents. It reads repo docs, an ownership map, and a human documentation site, then reports where to start reading, which files or packages may be edited, which checks prove a change, and which human docs explain the feature. The core works without any LLM or API key, and an audit command compares declared documentation and ownership against the observed project graph, reporting findings such as missing coverage, stale relations, and duplicates.
