riverpod-3-0-migration
Riverpod — Migrating from 2.0 to 3.0
For a full list of changes and highlights, see the official Riverpod docs (What's new in Riverpod 3.0). This skill summarizes the main migration steps.
Automatic retry
Failing providers are retried by default in 3.0. To disable globally:
ProviderScope(retry: (retryCount, error) => null, child: MyApp())
// or ProviderContainer(retry: (retryCount, error) => null)
To disable per provider, pass retry: (retryCount, error) => null when defining the provider (or @Riverpod(retry: ...) with codegen). See riverpod-retry.
Out-of-view providers are paused
Listeners in widgets that are not visible (e.g. off-screen) are paused by default. There is no global switch. To keep a subtree from pausing, wrap it in TickerMode(enabled: true, child: ...) so the Consumer(s) inside do not follow the pause behavior.

riverpod-codegen-and-hooks
Use Riverpod code generation (@riverpod, riverpod_generator) and hooks (hooks_riverpod, HookConsumerWidget, flutter_hooks with Riverpod). Use when the user asks about @riverpod, code generation, riverpod_generator, when to use codegen, or using flutter_hooks with Riverpod (HookConsumerWidget, HookConsumer).
30riverpod-providers
Declare and use Riverpod providers (Provider, FutureProvider, StreamProvider, NotifierProvider, AsyncNotifierProvider, StreamNotifierProvider); unmodifiable vs modifiable, top-level declaration, Ref, Notifier build method. Use when creating providers, choosing provider type, writing Notifier classes, or understanding Riverpod state. Use this skill whenever the user asks about Riverpod providers, provider types, or notifiers.
29riverpod-consumers
Use Riverpod Consumer, ConsumerWidget, and ConsumerStatefulWidget to read and watch providers in widgets; WidgetRef, builder ref parameter. Use when building widgets that need to access Riverpod providers, ref.watch or ref.read in the UI, or converting StatelessWidget to ConsumerWidget. Prefer this skill when the user asks how to use providers in Flutter widgets or why ConsumerWidget is required.
24riverpod-getting-started
Install Riverpod (flutter_riverpod or riverpod), wrap the app in ProviderScope, run a hello-world provider, and optionally enable riverpod_lint and code generation. Use when starting a Flutter or Dart project with Riverpod, adding the Riverpod dependency, or setting up ProviderScope and a first provider. For version highlights see the official Riverpod docs.
23riverpod-auto-dispose
Enable automatic disposal of Riverpod providers when they have no listeners; keepAlive, onDispose, invalidate, ref.keepAlive. Use when preventing memory leaks, caching only while used, or cleaning up resources when a provider is no longer needed. Use this skill when the user asks about auto-dispose, keepAlive, or when to dispose Riverpod state.
21riverpod-observers
Use ProviderObserver to log or debug Riverpod provider lifecycle; didUpdateProvider, ProviderScope observers, naming providers. Use when adding logging, analytics, or debugging for provider state changes. Use this skill when the user asks about ProviderObserver, logging Riverpod, or debugging provider updates.
