nextjs-app-router

nextjs-app-router is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from seaworld008/Commonly-used-high-value-skills. It costs 46 tokens per session (946 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to Next.js 14 and later using the App Router, the file-based system for defining pages and layouts. It explains server-rendered components, browser components, streaming, data loading, and full-stack features.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting or migrating a Next.js app, setting up routes, building server actions, adding streaming or parallel routes, and tuning data fetching and caching.
Why use it?
It helps you choose how pages should render and where data-fetching or interactive code should run in a Next.js application.

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 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 Patterns

Comprehensive patterns for Next.js 14+ App Router architecture, Server Components, and modern full-stack React development.

When to Use This Skill

  • Building new Next.js applications with App Router
  • Migrating from Pages Router to App Router
  • Implementing Server Components and streaming
  • Setting up parallel and intercepting routes
  • Optimizing data fetching and caching
  • Building full-stack features with Server Actions

Core Concepts

1. Rendering Modes

Mode Where When to Use
Server Components Server only Data fetching, heavy computation, secrets
Client Components Browser Interactivity, hooks, browser APIs
Static Build time Content that rarely changes
Dynamic Request time Personalized or real-time data
Streaming Progressive Large pages, slow data sources

2. File Conventions

├── layout.tsx       # Shared UI wrapper
├── page.tsx         # Route UI
├── loading.tsx      # Loading UI (Suspense)
├── error.tsx        # Error boundary

├── route.ts         # API endpoint
├── template.tsx     # Re-mounted layout

Quick Start

// app/layout.tsx
import { Inter } from 'next/font/google'
import { Providers } from './providers'

const inter = Inter({ subsets: ['latin'] })

export const metadata = {
  title: { default: 'My App', template: '%s | My App' },
  description: 'Built with Next.js App Router',
}

export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: {
  children: React.ReactNode
}) {
  return (
    <html lang="en" suppressHydrationWarning>
      <body className={inter.className}>
        <Providers>{children}</Providers>
      </body>
    </html>
  )
}

// app/page.tsx - Server Component by default
async function getProducts() {
  const res = await fetch('https://api.example.com/products', {
    next: { revalidate: 3600 }, // ISR: revalidate every hour
  })
  return res.json()
}

export default async function HomePage() {
  const products = await getProducts()

  return (
    <main>
      <h1>Products</h1>
      <ProductGrid products={products} />
    </main>
  )
}

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.
