Nextscan
Give Claude Code or Cursor a one-call snapshot of a local Next.js repo so the agent can plan refactors, reviews, or new features without manually opening dozens of files.
Overview
Nextscan is an MCP server for the Build phase that scans local Next.js projects and returns a compact summary your coding agent can cite before making changes.
What is this MCP server?
- stdio MCP server installable from npm as @berkayderin/nextscan (v1.0.1)
- Scans a local Next.js project and returns a compact summary for agent context
- Reduces token-heavy manual repo exploration in Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex
- Works against real project directories on your machine—no separate SaaS dashboard
- Lightweight integration: add one MCP entry pointing at the published npm package
- Published MCP server version 1.0.1 on the MCP registry schema 2025-12-11
- Single npm package @berkayderin/nextscan with stdio transport
- Source repository: github.com/berkayderin/nextscan
Community signal: 1 GitHub stars.
What problem does it solve?
Coding agents burn context and guess wrong about Next.js layout, routing, and project shape when they have to discover the repo by hand.
Who is it for?
Solo builders using Claude Code or Cursor on a Next.js codebase who want quick, repeatable project summaries during implementation and cleanup.
Skip if: Teams that do not use Next.js, need deep runtime profiling, or want a hosted security audit rather than local project introspection.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After you add the MCP server, your agent can pull a single compact Next.js project summary and work from accurate structure instead of exploratory file reads.
- Compact textual summary of the scanned Next.js project for agent sessions
- Faster agent onboarding to routes, config, and overall repo shape
- Repeatable MCP-backed project scan without custom scripts
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Next.js scanning is most valuable while you are actively building or extending the product—the agent needs grounded context about routes, config, and structure before it edits code. This is MCP infrastructure that feeds your coding agent structured project intel, which fits agent-tooling rather than a single feature implementation task.
How it compares
MCP integration for Next.js repo introspection, not an in-editor skill or a generic web-scraping automation server.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is nextscan for?
Nextscan is for indie and solo developers who build with Next.js and use MCP-enabled agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex and want structured project context without manual exploration.
When should I use nextscan?
Use nextscan when you start a new agent session on a Next.js repo, before large refactors, dependency upgrades, or when you need a quick orientation summary during the build or ship phases.
How do I add nextscan to my agent?
Install @berkayderin/nextscan from npm, configure your MCP client with stdio pointing at that package per your editor’s MCP settings, then invoke the server’s scan capability against your local Next.js project path.
