Comprehensive patterns for Next.js 14+ App Router, Server Components, and modern full-stack React development.
Works with
Covers rendering modes (Server Components, Client Components, static, dynamic, streaming), file conventions, and core architectural patterns with practical TypeScript examples
Includes eight key patterns: Server Components with data fetching, Client Components, Server Actions, parallel routes, intercepting routes for modals, streaming with Suspense, Route Handlers, and metadata

Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
node --versionnextjs-app-router-patternsExecute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
Fetches nextjs-app-router-patterns from wshobson/agents and configures it for Cursor.
The CLI shows a list of agents. Use arrow keys and space to select Cursor:
Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
Restart Cursor to activate nextjs-app-router-patterns. Access via /nextjs-app-router-patterns in your agent's command palette.
We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.
Skills execute code in your environment. Always review source, verify the publisher, and test in isolation before production.

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