nextjs

A guide to Next.js 16's App Router, the part of Next.js that handles pages, navigation, server-rendered components, data loading, and server-side actions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building or reviewing routes, server components, caching, server actions, loading states, metadata, or client components.
Why use it?
It helps prevent slow builds, incorrect caching, inefficient data loading, and routing mistakes in Next.js applications.

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 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 2d 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 Community Next.js 16 App Router Best Practices

Comprehensive performance optimization guide for Next.js 16 App Router applications, maintained by the Next.js Community. Contains 40 rules across 8 categories, prioritized by impact to guide automated refactoring and code generation.

When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:

  • Writing new Next.js 16 App Router code
  • Configuring caching strategies with 'use cache' directive
  • Implementing server components and data fetching
  • Setting up routing with parallel and intercepting routes
  • Creating server actions for form handling and mutations

Rule Categories by Priority

Priority Category Impact Prefix
1 Build & Bundle Optimization CRITICAL build-
2 Caching Strategy CRITICAL cache-
3 Server Components & Data Fetching HIGH server-
4 Routing & Navigation HIGH route-
5 Server Actions & Mutations MEDIUM-HIGH action-
6 Streaming & Loading States MEDIUM stream-
7 Metadata & SEO MEDIUM meta-
8 Client Components LOW-MEDIUM client-

Quick Reference

1. Build & Bundle Optimization (CRITICAL)

  • build-optimize-package-imports - Configure optimizePackageImports for Icon Libraries
  • build-dynamic-imports - Use Dynamic Imports for Heavy Components
  • build-barrel-files - Avoid Barrel File Imports in App Router
  • build-turbopack-config - Configure Turbopack at the top level
  • build-external-packages - Configure Server External Packages for Node Dependencies

2. Caching Strategy (CRITICAL)

  • cache-use-cache-directive - Use 'use cache' with Cache Components
  • cache-revalidate-tag - Use revalidateTag with cacheLife Profiles
  • cache-fetch-options - Configure Fetch Cache Options Explicitly
  • cache-revalidate-path - Use revalidatePath for Route-Level Cache Invalidation
  • cache-react-cache - Use React cache() for Request Deduplication
  • cache-segment-config - Match route configuration to the active cache model

What ships with it

41 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

nextjs is a skill published in the GitHub repository PyModel/react-frontend-skills (3 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 1,226 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
