Read this, maybe it helps
http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole

Or look at the source code of
http://search.cpan.org/src/BOBTFISH/CatalystX-SimpleLogin-0.08/lib/Catalyst/ActionRole/NeedsLogin.pm
you could virtually take this code and put it into your auto action.

Or if you use chained actions, you could add the Does(NeedsLogin)
attribute to any action chain link:

  package My::Controller::LoginRequired;

  # everything under /login needs login
  sub root : Chained(/) PathPart(admin) CaptureArgs(0) Does(NeedsLogin)
  {...}

  package Some::Controller::Stuff;

  sub foo : Chained(/admin) PathPart Args(0) {...}

Good luck
