From the source SKILL.md
Apply these security standards to every Next.js application. Security is a multi-layered concern spanning the client, server, and network boundaries. Every Server Action and Route Handler is a public endpoint — treat all input as hostile.
What this skill does
Nextjs Security is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the web-security sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/nextjs-security/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
