TanStack Router Search Params and Loaders

Use this skill when the task is primarily about URL state, route-level data loading, auth gates, or route context.

Scope

• validateSearch and typed search-state modeling
• search middlewares and custom search hygiene
• loaderDeps, loader, and preload behavior
• beforeLoad, redirects, and route-scoped context
• integrating TanStack Query or another external cache with router loaders

Routing cues

• validateSearch, search adapters, loaderDeps, loader, beforeLoad, auth, redirect, route context, preloading, or router.invalidate() -> use this skill
• route trees, pathless routes, params, Link, or route masking -> use tanstack-router-route-trees-and-navigation
• pending and error timing, not-found flows, scroll restoration, head management, or Router SSR -> use tanstack-router-runtime-behavior-and-ssr
• routeTree.gen.ts, file naming, .lazy.tsx, plugin config, or CLI generation -> use tanstack-router-file-based-routing-and-tooling
