### 导出副本边界与技能别名
迁移、安装、修复和经验回写只作用于当前加载的目标宿主技能副本。原 Codex 技能/MCP、下载的源码和 `original-skills` 均为来源材料,不因执行本副本而写入;只有用户另行明确要求配置 Codex 产品本身时,才按该产品流程处理指定目标。脚本需要安装目录或状态目录时,显式提供目标路径;不得从 `CODEX_HOME` 隐式推断写入位置。
跨技能名称可能沿用源库别名。先查 [技能别名表](../../skill-aliases.json),优先选择同来源、同插件的条目,再使用其 `id` 调用或读取对应入口;不得假定旧 `$skill`、`superpowers:skill` 名称在新宿主直接注册。不能确定目标时先核对,不替换真实产品命令或 Shell 环境变量。
## 跨宿主使用约定
本副本供支持 Agent Skills 的客户端使用。先检查当前宿主实际提供的工具、权限和已连接服务,再执行正文工作流。原文中的宿主工具标识是能力参考;只有实际发现该工具时才可调用,其他宿主应使用经核验的等价 MCP、CLI 或 API。没有等价能力的步骤必须报告不可用,不能虚构调用或完成状态。
技能资源以本技能目录为基准;输出写入当前项目中用户指定的位置。通过技能名称或自然语言触发,具体快捷命令由宿主决定。涉及真实产品、模型 API、协议字段和官方网址的名称保持原意。授权、审批、隐私和工具范围限制在迁移后仍然有效;不得为兼容而扩大权限。具体依赖与迁移说明见同目录 `PORTABILITY.md`。
# Turbopack
You are an expert in Turbopack — the Rust-powered JavaScript/TypeScript bundler built by Vercel. It is the default bundler in Next.js 16.
## Key Features
- **Instant HMR**: Hot Module Replacement that doesn't degrade with app size
- **File System Caching (Stable)**: Dev server artifacts cached on disk between restarts — up to 14x faster startup on large projects. Enabled by default in Next.js 16.1+, no config needed. Build caching planned next.
- **Multi-environment builds**: Browser, Server, Edge, SSR, React Server Components
- **Native RSC support**: Built for React Server Components from the ground up
- **TypeScript, JSX, CSS, CSS Modules, WebAssembly**: Out of the box
- **Rust-powered**: Incremental computation engine for maximum performance
## Configuration (Next.js 16)
In Next.js 16, Turbopack config is top-level (moved from `experimental.turbopack`):
```js
// next.config.ts
import type { NextConfig } from 'next'
const nextConfig: NextConfig = {
turbopack: {
// Resolve aliases (like webpack resolve.alias)
resolveAlias: {
'old-package': 'new-package',
},
// Custom file extensions to resolve
resolveExtensions: ['.ts', '.tsx', '.js', '.jsx', '.json'],
},
}
export default nextConfig
```
## CSS and CSS Modules Handling
Turbopack handles CSS natively without additional configuration.
### Global CSS
Import global CSS in your root layout:
```tsx
// app/layout.tsx
import './globals.css'
```
### CSS Modules
CSS Modules work out of the box with `.module.css` files:
```tsx
// components/Button.tsx
import styles from './Button.module.css'
export function Button({ children }) {
return <button className={styles.primary}>{children}</button>
}
```
### PostCSS
Turbopack reads your `postcss.config.js` automatically. Tailwind CSS v4 works with zero config:
```js
// postcss.config.js
module.exports = {
plugins: {
'@tailwindcss/postcss': {},
autoprefixer: {},
},
}
```
### Sass / SCSS
Install `sass` and import `.scss` files directly — Turbopack compiles them natively:
```bash
npm install sass
```
```tsx
import styles from './Component.module.scss'
```
### Common CSS pitfalls
- **CSS ordering differs from webpack**: Turbopack may load CSS chunks in a different order. Avoid relying on source-order specificity across files — use more specific selectors or CSS Modules.
- **`@import` in global CSS**: Use standard CSS `@import` — Turbopack resolves them, but circular imports cause build failures.
- **CSS-in-JS libraries**: `styled-components` and `emotion` work but require their SWC plugins configured under `compiler` in next.config.
## Tree Shaking
Turbopack performs tree shaking at the module level in production builds. Key behaviors:
- **ES module exports**: Only used exports are included — write `export` on each function/constant rather than barrel `export *`
- **Side-effect-free packages**: Mark packages as side-effect-free in `package.json` to enable aggressive tree shaking:
```json
{
"name": "my-ui-lib",
"sideEffects": false
}
```
- **Barrel file optimization**: Turbopack can skip unused re-exports from barrel files (`index.ts`) when the package declares `"sideEffects": false`
- **Dynamic imports**: `import()` expressions create async chunk boundaries — Turbopack splits these into separate chunks automatically
### Diagnosing large bundles
**Built-in analyzer (Next.js 16.1+, experimental)**: Works natively with Turbopack. Offers route-specific filtering, import tracing, and RSC boundary analysis:
```ts
// next.config.ts
const nextConfig: NextConfig = {
experimental: {
bundleAnalyzer: true,
},
}
```
**Legacy `@next/bundle-analyzer`**: Still works as a fallback:
```bash
ANALYZE=true next build
```
```ts
// next.config.ts
import withBundleAnalyzer from '@next/bundle-analyzer'
const nextConfig = withBundleAnalyzer({
enabled: process.env.ANALYZE === 'true',
})({
// your config
})
```
## Custom Loader Migration from Webpack
Turbopack does not support webpack loaders directly. Here is how to migrate common patterns:
| Webpack Loader | Turbopack Equivalent |
|----------------|---------------------|
| `css-loader` + `style-loader` | Built-in CSS support — remove loaders |
| `sass-loader` | Built-in — install `sass` package |
| `postcss-loader` | Built-in — reads `postcss.config.js` |
| `file-loader` / `url-loader` | Built-in static asset handling |
| `svgr` / `@svgr/webpack` | Use `@svgr/webpack` via `turbopack.rules` |
| `raw-loader` | Use `import x from './file?raw'` |
| `graphql-tag/loader` | Use a build-time codegen step instead |
| `worker-loader` | Use native `new Worker(new URL(...))` syntax |
### Configuring custom rules (loader replacement)
For loaders that have no built-in equivalent, use `turbopack.rules`:
```js
// next.config.ts
const nextConfig: NextConfig = {
turbopack: {
rules: {
'*.svg': {
loaders: ['@svgr/webpack'],
as: '*.js',
},
},
},
}
```
### When migration isn't possible
If a webpack loader has no Turbopack equivalent and no workaround, fall back to webpack:
```js
const nextConfig: NextConfig = {
bundler: 'webpack',
}
```
File an issue at [github.com/vercel/next.js](https://github.com/vercel/next.js) — the Turbopack team tracks loader parity requests.
## Production Build Diagnostics
### Build failing with Turbopack
1. **Check for unsupported config**: Remove any `webpack()` function from next.config — it's ignored by Turbopack and may mask the real config
2. **Verify `turbopack.rules`**: Ensure custom rules reference valid loaders that are installed
3. **Check for Node.js built-in usage in edge/client**: Turbopack enforces environment boundaries — `fs`, `path`, etc. cannot be imported in client or edge bundles
4. **Module not found errors**: Ensure `turbopack.resolveAlias` covers any custom resolution that was previously in webpack config
### Build output too large
- Audit `"use client"` directives — each client component boundary creates a new chunk
- Check for accidentally bundled server-only packages in client components
- Use `server-only` package to enforce server/client boundaries at import time:
```bash
npm install server-only
```
```ts
// lib/db.ts
import 'server-only' // Build fails if imported in a client component
```
### Comparing webpack vs Turbopack output
Run both bundlers and compare:
```bash
# Turbopack build (default in Next.js 16)
next build
# Webpack build
BUNDLER=webpack next build
```
Compare `.next/` output sizes and page-level chunks.
## Performance Profiling
### HMR profiling
Enable verbose HMR timing in development:
```bash
NEXT_TURBOPACK_TRACING=1 next dev
```
This writes a `trace.json` to the project root — open it in `chrome://tracing` or [Perfetto](https://ui.perfetto.dev/) to see module-level timing.
### Build profiling
Profile production builds:
```bash
NEXT_TURBOPACK_TRACING=1 next build
```
Look for:
- **Long-running transforms**: Indicates a slow SWC plugin or heavy PostCSS config
- **Large module graphs**: Reduce barrel file re-exports
- **Cache misses**: If incremental builds aren't hitting cache, check for files that change every build (e.g., generated timestamps)
### Memory usage
Turbopack's Rust core manages its own memory. If builds OOM:
- Increase Node.js heap: `NODE_OPTIONS='--max-old-space-size=8192' next build`
- Reduce concurrent tasks if running inside Turborepo: `turbo build --concurrency=2`
## Turbopack vs Webpack
| Feature | Turbopack | Webpack |
|---------|-----------|---------|
| Language | Rust | JavaScript |
| HMR speed | Constant (O(1)) | Degrades with app size |
| RSC support | Native | Plugin-based |
| Cold start | Fast | Slower |
| Ecosystem | Growing | Massive (loaders, plugins) |
| Status in Next.js 16 | Default | Still supported |
| Tree shaking | Module-level | Module-level |
| CSS handling | Built-in | Requires loaders |
| Production builds | Supported | Supported |
## When You Might Need Webpack
- Custom webpack loaders with no Turbopack equivalent
- Complex webpack plugin configurations (e.g., `ModuleFederationPlugin`)
- Specific webpack features not yet in Turbopack (e.g., custom `externals` functions)
To use webpack instead:
```js
// next.config.ts
const nextConfig: NextConfig = {
bundler: 'webpack', // Opt out of Turbopack
}
```
## Development vs Production
- **Development**: Turbopack provides instant HMR and fast refresh
- **Production**: Turbopack handles the production build (replaces webpack in Next.js 16)
## Common Issues
1. **Missing loader equivalent**: Some webpack loaders don't have Turbopack equivalents yet. Check Turbopack docs for supported transformations.
2. **Config migration**: Move `experimental.turbopack` to top-level `turbopack` in next.config.
3. **Custom aliases**: Use `turbopack.resolveAlias` instead of `webpack.resolve.alias`.
4. **CSS ordering changes**: Test visual regressions when migrating — CSS chunk order may differ.
5. **Environment boundary errors**: Server-only modules imported in client components fail at build time — use `server-only` package.
