If you try the bin/cake bake policy command and get “Could not find a task named policy.”

bin/cake bake policy
Could not find a task named `policy`.

Make sure CakePHP Authorization is installed and then add the following to src/Application.php

    public function bootstrap(): void
    {
        // Call parent to load bootstrap from files.
        parent::bootstrap();

        // other code here

        // Load more plugins here

     
        $this->addPlugin('Authorization');
    }

Try again and you are good to go

bin/cake bake policy
# output
You must provide a name to bake a policy


bin/cake bake policy DebugKitAuthBypass      

#output
Creating file C:\dev\cake-auth\src\Policy\DebugKitAuthBypassPolicy.php
Wrote `C:\dev\cake-auth\src\Policy\DebugKitAuthBypassPolicy.php`
