Next.js + Motion/Framer Motion

Mission

Build small, purposeful, accessible animations in Next.js using Motion for React (the current package) or legacy framer-motion, without breaking server/client boundaries, performance, or usability.

Use this skill for

• First-render reveals and section entrances
• Hover, tap, and focus feedback on buttons, links, cards, tabs, and navigation
• Scroll-triggered reveals and modest scroll-linked effects
• Modals, drawers, dropdowns, accordions, tabs, and other enter/exit UI
• Layout and shared-element transitions with layout and layoutId
• Reorderable lists and light route-content transitions
• Debugging Motion behaviour in Next.js

Do not use this skill for

• GSAP-style timelines or cinematic sequences
• Canvas, WebGL, Three.js, or Lottie-led animation systems
• Heavy parallax or scroll-jacking storytelling
• Large creative-direction rewrites
• Pure CSS effects that do not justify client JavaScript, unless Motion is explicitly requested

Non-negotiables

• Prefer the lightest Motion API that solves the task.
• Preserve repo consistency. Do not mix motion and framer-motion imports in the same diff unless the task is an explicit migration.
• Keep animated logic in the smallest possible Client Component boundary.
• Respect reduced motion globally with MotionConfig reducedMotion="user" and locally with useReducedMotion() when behaviour must change.
• Prefer reusable primitives, variants, and motion tokens over repeated inline animation objects.
• Do not add a global provider, root-layout Client Component, or route-wide animation system unless the request genuinely needs it.

Default workflow

1) Audit the codebase first

Inspect:

• Router type: app/, pages/, or both.
• Current package: motion, framer-motion, or neither.
• Existing animation patterns and design-system components.
• Candidate transition boundaries: app/layout.tsx, app/template.tsx, pages/_app.tsx, shared UI shells.
• Whether the change is local animation, mount/unmount animation, layout animation, shared-element animation, reorder, or scroll-linked animation.

If shell access is available, run:

node scripts/audit-nextjs-motion.mjs --root /path/to/repo
node scripts/inspect-motion-target.mjs path/to/target-file.tsx --root /path/to/repo
node scripts/plan-motion-change.mjs --root /path/to/repo --target path/to/target-file.tsx --task "user request"

For broad skill iteration or repo-health checks, also run:

node scripts/check-motion-antipatterns.mjs --root /path/to/repo

2) Choose a package strategy

Default rules:

• New work or modernised motion layer: prefer the current motion package with imports from motion/react.
• Existing repo already on framer-motion: stay consistent unless the task explicitly includes migration.
• Passive App Router component with no hooks or client-only logic: motion/react-client can be appropriate, but it is an exception, not the default.
• Leaf animations with hooks, route state, presence, reorder, or interactivity: use a small Client Component boundary.

See references/MIGRATION.md and references/DECISION_TREE.md.

3) Choose the lightest correct API

Use this decision rule:

• Simple local animation: motion.*
• Bundle-sensitive shared shell: m.* with LazyMotion
• Repeated parent/child orchestration: variants plus stagger
• Mount/unmount or route exits: AnimatePresence
• Layout changes from React re-render: layout
• Shared-element transition: layoutId
• Sibling layout coordination or namespaced shared layout IDs: LayoutGroup
• Simple scroll reveal: whileInView
• Scroll-linked progress or parallax: useScroll plus motion values
• Imperative sequence or external trigger: useAnimate
• Design-system component wrapper: motion.create() with ref forwarding

See references/EXPERT_PLAYBOOK.md and references/DECISION_TREE.md.

4) Wire it correctly for the router

App Router

• Passive, hook-free animation in a server-friendly file: consider motion/react-client.
• Interactive or hook-driven UI: create a small Client Component leaf and keep data fetching server-side.
• Client wrapper around server-rendered children: useful for modal shells, drawers, and local visibility wrappers.
• Route enter/exit choreography: mount a persistent Client shell from a layout so AnimatePresence stays mounted.
• Segment replay on navigation: template.tsx is useful when you want remount semantics at a specific segment boundary.

See references/APP_ROUTER.md.

Pages Router

• Keep AnimatePresence stable in pages/_app.tsx for route transitions.
• Key routed children by a stable value that changes when you actually want a transition. For dynamic routes, router.asPath is usually safer than router.route.
• Do not rewrite _app.tsx for a one-off local animation.

See references/PAGES_ROUTER.md.

5) Apply the motion budget

Default ranges unless the user or design system says otherwise:

• Micro-interactions: 0.12s to 0.22s, scale no larger than 1.03, travel no more than 4px.
• Reveal / list entrance: 0.18s to 0.35s, travel 8px to 24px.
• Page / route transition: 0.22s to 0.45s, mostly opacity plus small Y translation.
• Layout animation: prefer Motion springs or layout; do not fake these with large manual transforms.

See references/EXPERT_PLAYBOOK.md and references/PERFORMANCE.md.

6) Validate before finishing

Always check:

• No server/client boundary mistakes
• Reduced motion works
• Focus is preserved for interactive UI
• No unnecessary layout shift or stretched content
• No duplicate or conflicting route wrappers
• Project still builds

Run repo checks when available:

npm run lint
npm run build

For repo audits or skill iteration, also run:

node scripts/check-motion-antipatterns.mjs --root /path/to/repo

Use references/CHECKLIST.md before finalising. When improving the skill itself, use references/EVALUATION.md and node scripts/run-evaluation-pack.mjs.

Implementation rules

• Prefer animating transform and opacity. Avoid animating top, left, large filters, and large shadows on big surfaces.
• When possible, turn the existing root element into a Motion element instead of adding a new wrapper. Extra wrappers often break layout, refs, selectors, or spacing.
• If using m plus LazyMotion, use:

- domAnimation for standard animations, variants, exit, hover, tap, and focus. - domMax only when you need layout animations or drag/pan.

• Use AnimatePresence initial={false} for app-level wrappers unless first-load animation is explicitly desired.
• Use AnimatePresence mode="wait" only when a single child should fully exit before the next enters.
• Never key exit-sensitive children by array index.
• Start with layout before manual height choreography. If content stretches, add layout to the affected children or switch to layout="position" for aspect-ratio changes.
• If the scroll container is not the window, configure viewport.root or use useInView with the correct root.
• When animating next/image or image wrappers, preserve the layout box and animate transform or opacity rather than intrinsic size.
• When wrapping design-system components, call motion.create() outside render and make sure the wrapped component forwards its ref.
• If the user did not explicitly ask for Motion and the effect is just a tiny hover or focus style on a static server-rendered element, CSS may be the cleaner answer.

Scripts

• scripts/audit-nextjs-motion.mjs - inspects a repo, ranks likely target files, and emits JSON recommendations.
• scripts/inspect-motion-target.mjs - inspects one file and recommends boundary, import path, risks, and likely pattern fit.
• scripts/plan-motion-change.mjs - combines repo audit, target inspection, and task wording into a structured expert plan.
• scripts/check-motion-antipatterns.mjs - scans a repo for common Motion and Framer Motion anti-patterns and emits JSON findings.
• scripts/run-evaluation-pack.mjs - runs the bundled fixture-and-golden evaluation pack for skill iteration.
• scripts/scaffold-motion-primitives.mjs - copies template components from assets/ into a target directory, with optional import rewriting for legacy framer-motion.

Output expectations

When modifying a repo, finish with:

1. The files changed
2. The Motion API and pattern chosen
3. Boundary strategy and package migration decision, if any
4. Reduced-motion handling
5. Performance or bundle-size choices, if relevant
6. Manual validation notes or commands run
7. Any caveats the developer should know

Typical request mapping

• "Make this button feel better" -> micro-interaction recipe
• "Animate cards in on scroll" -> reveal recipe; variants if staggered
• "Add a smooth route transition in App Router" -> persistent layout-mounted shell or content wrapper, not a root rewrite by default
• "Animate this accordion or tab underline" -> layout / layoutId / LayoutGroup
• "Make this drag list reorder smoothly" -> Reorder.Group / Reorder.Item
• "This breaks in App Router" -> inspect boundary and import path before editing
• "Modernise our Framer Motion setup" -> audit first, then use references/MIGRATION.md
