🐇 In the meadow, tokens play,
With lifetimes clear, they guide the way.
Security's charm, in every line,
Ensures our systems brightly shine.
With careful thought, we set the pace,
For safe and sound, our token space! 🌼

  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.

21-21: Consider standardizing time unit representations.

For better readability and consistency, consider using a more structured format for time units:

-Expiry and timeouts are usually defined in seconds - where 3,600 seconds is one hour and 86,400 seconds is one day.
+Expiry and timeouts are defined in seconds:
+- 1 hour = 3,600 seconds
+- 1 day = 86,400 seconds

19-21: Consider improving sentence variety.

The text is clear and informative, but contains some repetitive phrasing. Consider this revision:

-Tokens and sessions need to be configured per application.
+Configure tokens and sessions individually for each application.

23-26: Well-structured token type descriptions!

The descriptions effectively balance technical accuracy with practical security recommendations for each token type.

28-32: Excellent security risk documentation!

The detailed list of specific security risks greatly improves the document's value. This addresses the previous suggestion perfectly and provides concrete examples that help readers understand the importance of proper token management.
