What it does

Next Cache Components is an agent skill from vercel-labs/openreview, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Next.js 16 Cache Components - PPR, use cache directive, cacheLife, cacheTag, updateTag

Its SKILL.md is about 2.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with Next.js and Vercel. The repository describes itself as: An open-source, self-hosted AI code review bot powered by Vercel.

Example prompts

  • “/next-cache-components”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Static (Auto-Prerendered)
  2. Cached (use cache)
  3. Dynamic (Suspense)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 672deb2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are typescript).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • nextjs.org

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Next Cache Components loads about 2.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 371 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~27
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 371 words (~2,341 tokens).

“Cache Components enable Partial Prerendering (PPR) - mix static, cached, and dynamic content in a single route.”
