Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned erichowens/some_claude_skills at 6713fc7a64.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows AI agents to understand and generate code related to Next.js App Router features. It can assist with creating routes, defining layouts using the app directory structure, and implementing server actions for data fetching and mutations within Next.js applications. The agent is capable of providing guidance on best practices and troubleshooting common issues encountered when working with the App Router.

When to use it

  • Debugging Routing Issues: When you're facing problems with your Next.js app router, such as incorrect URL handling or unexpected behavior.
  • Implementing Server Actions: To generate code for server actions that handle form submissions or data updates directly on the server.
  • Creating Custom Layouts: When needing help structuring and building complex layouts using the app directory.
  • Migrating from Pages Router: Assisting in converting existing Next.js projects from the older Pages router to the App Router.

Key capabilities

  • Next.js App Router code generation
  • Route definition assistance
  • Server Action implementation
  • Layout creation and structuring
  • Debugging support for App Router issues

Example prompts

  • "Generate a Next.js app route for handling user authentication."
  • "How do I create a server action in the App Router to update a database record?"
  • "I'm getting a 404 error with my new App Router route; can you help me troubleshoot it?"

Tips & gotchas

  • This skill requires familiarity with Next.js concepts and terminology. A basic understanding of React is also beneficial.
  • The App Router is relatively new, so be aware that best practices are still evolving.
