How to correctly connect authorization with laravel to the forum?

Question

Laravel

Hello.
There is a site on laravel, a forum on XenForo 2 is uploaded to it in the public folder.
I decided to do authorization and registration through the forum, and then it started running.
The bottom line is that an authorized user on the forum can be obtained as follows, and I added what would authorize him on the site itself:

if( Auth::check() == null ) {
    require ( public_path() .'/forum/src/XF.php');
    \XF::start('/hc');
    $app = \XF::setupApp('XF\Pub\App');
    $s = $app->session();
    $uid = $s->get('userId');

    if ($uid){
        $finder = \XF::finder('XF:User');
        $user = $finder->where('user_id', $uid)->fetchOne();
        $find_user = User::find($user->user_id);
        if($find_user) {
            Auth::loginUsingId($find_user->user_id);
        }
    }
}

That there is a connection of the forum engine file through the request is sad, and how to make this code be on the entire site? Do it through middleware?
Please suggest how it will be better
