URL Routing Patterns

What it does

Practical guidance and reusable patterns for designing URL structures, generating unique slugs, handling redirects and canonicalization, and building routing APIs for headless CMS or content-heavy sites. Includes examples (hierarchical, collection-based, hybrid), slug generation code, redirect management patterns, localization strategies, hreflang handling, and canonical/normalization best-practices.

When to use it

Use this skill when you need to define or audit site URL schemes for SEO, implement slug services, add automatic redirects on slug change, create localized URL strategies (path prefixes/subdomains), or build route-resolution APIs for a headless CMS. Helpful during site architecture, CMS integration, or migration planning.

What's included

• Scripts: None in this SKILL (has_scripts=false).
• References: No separate references directory on the repo (has_references=false).
• Instructions: Detailed patterns and code examples for slug services, autoroute/autoroute patterns, redirect creation and lifecycle, localized routing services, hreflang generation, canonical URL generation, URL normalization, and a sample routing API contract.

Compatible agents

Best used by agents that can read code and generate deployment/config scripts (e.g., Copilot-style agents, Code-focused Claude/Codex agents, or automation tools that can produce Foundry/Node scripts).
