Dependency Mapping

Analyze all project dependencies and create a mapping to their App Router equivalents with migration instructions.

Toolkit Setup

This skill requires the nextjs-migration-toolkit skill to be installed. All migration skills depend on it for AST analysis.

TOOLKIT_DIR="$(cd "$(dirname "$SKILL_PATH")/../nextjs-migration-toolkit" && pwd)"
if [ ! -f "$TOOLKIT_DIR/package.json" ]; then
  echo "ERROR: nextjs-migration-toolkit is not installed." >&2
  echo "Run: npx skills add blazity/next-migration-skills -s nextjs-migration-toolkit" >&2
  echo "Then retry this skill." >&2
  exit 1
fi
bash "$TOOLKIT_DIR/scripts/setup.sh" >/dev/null

Steps

1. Run Dependency Analysis

npx tsx "$TOOLKIT_DIR/src/bin/ast-tool.ts" analyze dependencies <packageJsonPath>

2. Review Each Category

From the analysis output, review each dependency classification:

Core packages (next, react, react-dom):

Verify minimum versions: next@13.4+, react@18+
Check if next version supports App Router features needed

Replaceable packages:

For each package, review the suggested replacement and migration note
Check if the replacement is already installed
Determine migration effort per package

Unknown packages:

Research each unknown package for App Router compatibility
Check the package's documentation for RSC (React Server Component) support
Classify as: compatible, needs update, needs replacement, or needs removal

Dev tools:

Generally no changes needed
Verify test frameworks support App Router patterns

3. Create Dependency Migration Map

For each package needing action, document:

Current package and version
Replacement package (if any)
Installation command (npm install <replacement>)
Code changes required (import paths, API differences)
Files affected (grep for usage)

4. Generate Package Update Commands

Produce runnable commands:

# Remove deprecated packages
npm uninstall <package1> <package2>

# Install replacements
npm install <replacement1> <replacement2>

# Update existing packages
npm install <package>@latest

5. Save Mapping

Write the dependency mapping to .migration/dependencies.md.
