nextscan

MCP server that scans Next.js projects and returns a compact summary. One tool call → full project overview.

What it does

Without nextscan	With nextscan
Manual file-by-file exploration	Single scan call
Multiple tool calls to understand routes	Compact route tree with flags
Missing security issues	Hardcoded secrets + env leak detection
Unknown API coverage	Auth + validation status per endpoint
Schema guesswork	Prisma/Drizzle relation mapping

Quick Install

# Clone and build
cd nextscan
npm install
npm run build

# Add to Claude Code
claude mcp add nextscan -- node /path/to/nextscan/dist/index.js

Tool: scan

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
path	string	Yes	Absolute path to Next.js project root
focus	enum	No	routes | api | schema | security
