Ensure correct Next.js App Router architecture, rendering strategy, and data fetching. Use whenever working under /app — routing, layouts, server/client component boundaries, data fetching, Suspense, and Server Actions. Defaults to Server Components and adds 'use client' only for interactivity. Not for the Pages Router (/pages).
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Next.js App Router — Skill **Name:** `nextjs-app-router` **Purpose:** Ensure correct App Router architecture, rendering strategy, and data fetching in Next.js. Use this skill whenever working under `/app`. **Applies when:** Routing, layouts, server/client boundaries, data fetching, Suspense, Server Actions. **Do not use when:** Working in the Pages Router (`/pages`) or non-Next.js projects. ## Rules - **Server-first:** Default to Server Components; add `'use client'` only for interactivity or browser APIs. - **Routing/layouts:** Use `layout.tsx` for shared UI; keep layouts stable; use route groups `(group)` for organization. - **Data fetching:** Fetch in Server Components by default and colocate with usage. - **Rendering strategy:** Choose static, cached, or dynamic intentionally; avoid accidental dynamic rendering. - **Client components:** Keep them small, prop-driven, and avoid server data fetching inside them. - **Suspense/streaming:** Use `<Suspense>` for slow or user-specific UI. - **Mutations:** Prefer Server Actions and invalidate caches as needed. - **Errors:** Use `error.tsx` and `not-found.tsx` for route-level handling. ## Workflow …

How to install
mdr add asymmetric-al/core/nextjs-app-router@sha256:f784cb01f5a4c0b8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260603.c42511a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
