SKILL.md

The skill is based on Nitro v3 (beta, 3.0.260903), generated at 2026-09-25.

Nitro is a framework-agnostic, deployment-agnostic server toolkit powered by H3 v2, unstorage, and Vite/Rolldown/Rollup. It powers Nuxt and works standalone. From one codebase it builds optimized output for Node.js, Bun, Deno, Cloudflare, Vercel, Netlify, and more.

Key capabilities:

  • Filesystem routing with H3 v2 event handlers, dynamic params, and method suffixes.
  • Route rules for declarative caching, headers, redirects, proxying, and CORS.
  • Caching layer (cached handlers/functions, SWR) on top of the unstorage KV layer.
  • Runtime config overridable via NITRO_* env vars.
  • Tasks (on-demand + scheduled/cron), WebSockets/SSE, a SQL database layer, and OpenAPI auto-docs.
  • Plugins & lifecycle hooks, custom renderer/server entry, and portable deployment presets.

Key v3 changes (vs. nitropack v2): the package is renamed nitropack → nitro with H3 v2 (web-standard Request/Response); auto-imports are removed (import everything explicitly); directory scanning is opt-in via serverDir; useStorage → useKV (nitro/kv) and the storage config option → kv; cache swr now defaults to false. If unsure about v2-vs-v3 APIs, read advanced-migration first.
