Upgrade Next.js
Upgrade the current project to the latest Next.js version following official migration guides.
Instructions
-
Detect current version: Read
package.jsonto identify the current Next.js version and related dependencies (React, React DOM, etc.) -
Fetch the latest upgrade guide: Use WebFetch to get the official upgrade documentation:
- Codemods: https://nextjs.org/docs/app/guides/upgrading/codemods
- Version-specific guides (adjust version as needed):
-
Determine upgrade path: Based on current version, identify which migration steps apply. For major version jumps, upgrade incrementally (e.g., 13 → 14 → 15).
-
Run codemods first: Next.js provides codemods to automate breaking changes:
npx @next/codemod@latest <transform> <path>Common transforms:
next-async-request-api- Updates async Request APIs (v15)next-request-geo-ip- Migrates geo/ip properties (v15)next-dynamic-access-named-export- Transforms dynamic imports (v15)
-
Update dependencies: Upgrade Next.js and peer dependencies together:
npm install next@latest react@latest react-dom@latest -
Review breaking changes: Check the upgrade guide for manual changes needed:
- API changes (e.g., async params in v15)
- Configuration changes in
next.config.js - Deprecated features being removed
-
Update TypeScript types (if applicable):
npm install @types/react@latest @types/react-dom@latest -
Test the upgrade:
- Run
npm run buildto check for build errors - Run

imagegen-frontend-mobile
Elite mobile app image-generation skill for creating premium, app-native screen concepts and flows. Designed for iOS, Android, and cross-platform mobile products. Prioritizes clean hierarchy, comfortably readable text, strong multi-screen consistency, controlled color palettes, non-generic creative direction, textured surfaces, image-led composition, tasteful custom iconography, and clean phone mockup framing. By default, screens should be shown inside a subtle premium iPhone or similar phone mockup with a visible frame, while the main focus stays on the app content itself. This skill generates images only. It does not write code.

Optimized for landing pages, marketing sites, and product comps that developers or coding models can accurately recreate.
