SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Upgrading Next.js across major versions can be error-prone due to breaking changes and config drift. This Skill provides a guided workflow leveraging official migration guides and codemods to minimize manual effort and risk.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detect the current Next.js version from package.json and map the required upgrade path across major versions.
  • Fetch official upgrade guides and codemods, then apply changes to the codebase and update dependencies accordingly.
  • Determine incremental upgrade steps for major version jumps, review breaking changes, adjust configurations (next.config.js), and validate with build and test runs.
  • Use cases include upgrading legacy apps to the latest Next.js, migrating app router configuration, and ensuring compatibility with React and TypeScript types.

Quick Start

Identify your current Next.js version in package.json, then follow the upgrade workflow to apply codemods, update dependencies, and verify the build.

Does this Next.js upgrade workflow handle React and TypeScript type compatibility?▼

Yes, the Skill ensures compatibility with React and TypeScript types during the upgrade process. It updates dependencies and validates configurations to maintain type safety across major Next.js version migrations.

Why does my Next.js build fail after jumping major versions, and how do I fix it?▼

Build failures after major version jumps often stem from config drift and breaking changes. The Skill fixes this by reviewing breaking changes, applying codemods, adjusting next.config.js, and validating with build runs.

Do I need to manually detect my current Next.js version before starting the migration?▼

No, the Skill automatically detects your current Next.js version from package.json and maps the required upgrade path across major versions, eliminating manual version detection before applying codemods and updates.
