Set permissions: {} at the workflow level and grant the minimum needed per-job. Prefer GitHub-provided (actions/*) and Vercel-owned actions. For third-party actions: ${{ ... }} is interpolated into the script before bash runs, so untrusted values (PR title, branch name, issue body) can break out and execute. Route them through an env var and quote on use:

This version has breaking changes — APIs, conventions, and file structure may all differ from your training data. Read the relevant guide in dist/docs/ before writing any code. Heed deprecation notices.
vercel/next.js/skills/next-cache-components-adoption/SKILL.md
Turn on Cache Components in a Next.js app and resolve the blocking routes it surfaces. Use when the user wants to enable, adopt, or migrate to Cache Components, flip the `cacheComponents` flag, work through a flood of blocking-prerender / instant validation errors, run the `cache-components-instant-false` codemod, or decide between opting routes out with `export const instant = false` and fixing them in place.
vercel/next.js/skills/next-cache-components-optimizer/SKILL.md
Drive a Next.js route to instant navigation by setting up an agentic loop, under Cache Components / PPR, on initial load (hard navigation) and client-side navigation (soft navigation). Encode the goal as a failing @next/playwright instant() e2e and work it to green, one verified route at a time; the shipped test then guards against regression. Use when asked to make a route's navigation instant (its static shell commits immediately), fix a route whose static shell isn't prerendered/served/prefetched, grow a route's static shell or fix its slow first paint, diagnose which Suspense boundary keeps a route out of its static shell, or write the instant() e2e guard for one. Requires Next.js 16.3+ with cacheComponents; directs an upgrade if older.
vercel/next.js/skills/next-dev-loop/SKILL.md
Verify Next.js runtime behavior after editing app code. Use this skill to confirm a change actually works in a running app — not just that it compiles or type-checks. Combines /_next/mcp (Next.js's view) with agent-browser (the browser's view). Requires a running `next dev`.
vercel/next.js/skills/next-partial-prefetching-adoption/SKILL.md
Turn on Partial Prefetching in a Next.js app and work through the insights it surfaces. Use when the user wants to enable or adopt Partial Prefetching, flip the `partialPrefetching` flag, opt routes in with `export const prefetch = 'partial'`, audit `Link prefetch={true}` behavior, preserve existing prefetched UI with `instant()` tests, or resolve the instant-link-prefetch-partial and instant-shell-url-data insights.
vercel/next.js/skills/next-partial-prefetching-optimizer/SKILL.md
Optimize what selected Next.js client navigations include before the click under Partial Prefetching. Use after Cache Components and Partial Prefetching are adopted when the user wants selected URL-specific UI to be instant, wants reusable content to wait for navigation, or needs to choose between default, viewport, and intent prefetching. Requires Next.js 16.3+.

vercel/next.js/turbopack/AGENTS.md
Turbopack is a general-purpose bundler that is built and designed for Next.js, but is not necessarily Next.js-specific. Keep Next.js concepts out of it.
Plain text files in a repository that tell a coding agent how the project works: commands to run, conventions to follow and things to avoid. CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, cursor rules and skills are the common kinds.
CLAUDE.md is read by Claude Code. AGENTS.md is an open format that Codex, Cursor and other agents read. Many projects keep one and point the other at it.
A folder with a SKILL.md that describes one capability, such as filling PDFs or reviewing code. The agent loads it only when the task calls for it.
Your agents already can, over MCP, limited to the files you're allowed to read. Searching them from this page is coming.
