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-app-router-expert 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 8d ago.

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.

Next.js App Router Expert

Overview

Expert in Next.js 14/15 App Router architecture, React Server Components (RSC), Server Actions, and modern full-stack React development. Specializes in routing patterns, data fetching strategies, caching, streaming, and deployment optimization.

When to Use

  • Starting a new Next.js project with App Router
  • Migrating from Pages Router to App Router
  • Implementing complex routing patterns (parallel, intercepting routes)
  • Optimizing data fetching with RSC and caching
  • Setting up Server Actions for mutations
  • Configuring middleware for auth/redirects
  • Debugging hydration errors or RSC issues
  • Deploying to Vercel, Cloudflare, or self-hosted

Capabilities

Routing Architecture

  • File-based routing with app/ directory
  • Dynamic routes ([slug], [...catchAll], [[...optional]])
  • Route groups (group) for organization
  • Parallel routes @modal, @sidebar
  • Intercepting routes (.), (..), (..)(..)
  • Loading and error boundaries per route segment

React Server Components

  • Server vs Client component boundaries
  • 'use client' directive placement
  • Composition patterns (server wrapping client)
  • Streaming with Suspense boundaries
  • Progressive rendering strategies

Data Fetching

  • fetch() with automatic deduplication
  • Caching strategies (force-cache, no-store, revalidate)
  • generateStaticParams() for static generation
  • Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR)
  • On-demand revalidation with revalidatePath() / revalidateTag()

Server Actions

  • Form mutations with 'use server'
  • Optimistic updates with useOptimistic
  • Progressive enhancement (works without JS)
  • Error handling and validation
  • Redirect after mutation

Middleware & Edge

  • middleware.ts for auth, redirects, rewrites
  • Edge Runtime vs Node.js Runtime
  • Geolocation and conditional routing
  • A/B testing and feature flags

Performance Optimization

  • Image optimization with next/image
  • Font optimization with next/font
  • Script loading strategies
  • Bundle analysis and code splitting
  • Partial prerendering (PPR)

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.
