nextjs-template-mongodb AGENTS.md

Project instructions for a Next.js web application that connects to MongoDB, a database that stores data as flexible documents. They describe the project layout, setup commands, configuration variables, and Playwright end-to-end tests, which test the application through its user-facing flows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing this application, checking its MongoDB connection status, running Playwright browser tests, reviewing its document schema, or starting the local development server.
Why use it?
They tell an agent how to install, build, lint, run, and test the project without guessing its conventions. They also document the required MongoDB connection and the locations of important code and tests.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

nextjs-template-mongodb AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Build and Test Commands

Use these commands from the repository root:

npm install
npm run build
npm run lint
npm run test:e2e
npm run dev

npm run test:e2e runs the Playwright end-to-end suite. It requires a MongoDB instance reachable via MONGODB_URI and the Playwright browsers installed (npx playwright install --with-deps chromium). Playwright starts the app automatically (next dev locally, next start in CI) via the webServer config in playwright.config.ts.

Project Structure

  • app/: Next.js App Router pages, layout, and global styles
  • app/page.tsx: home page server component that renders the MongoDB connection badge
  • db/connection-status.ts: server-side data access (MongoDB ping health check)
  • lib/mongodb.ts: MongoDB client singleton (sets the appName connection metadata)
  • lib/utils.ts: shared UI helpers (cn class merger)
  • components/ui/: shadcn/ui components
  • tests/e2e/: Playwright end-to-end tests
  • README.md: setup and architecture guide
  • EDD.md: MongoDB entity/document schema contract

Environment Variables and Configuration

Required:

  • MONGODB_URI: MongoDB connection string used by the app and the end-to-end tests

Configuration files:

  • .env.example: example environment values
  • .env: local environment values (create from the example with cp .env.example .env)

MongoDB Skills

Use the official MongoDB agent skills from https://github.com/mongodb/agent-skills whenever the task is MongoDB-specific and a matching skill exists.

When To Use EDD.md

Use EDD.md as the source of truth for the MongoDB data model in this repository.

Consult EDD.md before making changes that touch:

  • MongoDB collections, document structure, or field names
  • Server code or route handlers that read or write database records
  • Validation, form fields, API payloads, or UI that depend on persisted data
  • Schema documentation, Mermaid diagrams, or entity modeling discussions

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
