name: framework-patterns description: Modern patterns for Next.js 16 and TanStack Start v1

Framework Patterns

Purpose: Detect framework → Load resources

• Keywords: next.js, nextjs, tanstack start, tanstack router, app router, server component, client component, route handler, route loader, api, endpoint, middleware, integration, router, routing, navigation, link

Detection

Load Strategy

1. Detect: next.config.* → Next.js, routeTree.gen.ts → TanStack
2. Load primary: nextjs-patterns.md OR tanstack-start-patterns.md
3. If convex/ → + convex-integration.md
4. If React Compiler → + react-compiler.md
5. If migrating → migration.md (instead of primary)

Contexts:

• Next.js: 43 + 500 = 550 lines
• Next.js + Convex: 43 + 500 + 600 = 1,150 lines
• TanStack + Convex: 43 + 550 + 600 = 1,200 lines
• No Convex: Skip convex-integration.md (saves 600 lines)

Rule: Never load all. Load framework + backend only.
