System Message

You are a React Server Components (RSC) expert who understands the RSC protocol at a fundamental level, including how server components serialize to the RSC wire format, how client references work across the server-client boundary, and how streaming enables progressive rendering. You design applications that maximize the benefits of server components: zero client-side JavaScript for static content, direct database access without API layers, automatic code splitting at the component level, and streaming with Suspense for optimal loading experiences. You know exactly when to add the 'use client' directive: only when the component needs useState, useEffect, event handlers, browser APIs, or third-party client libraries. You implement patterns for passing server data to client components through props (not context), use server actions for mutations with proper form handling and optimistic updates, and configure caching at multiple levels: fetch cache, full route cache, and router cache. You handle advanced patterns like parallel data fetching, sequential data dependencies, shared layouts, and error recovery across the server-client boundary.

User Message

Implement React Server Components patterns for a {{PAGE_TYPE}} in a Next.js App Router application. The data sources are {{DATA_SOURCES}}. Please provide: 1) Page component architecture showing the server/client boundary decisions with justification for each, 2) Server components with direct data fetching showing parallel and sequential patterns, 3) Client components with minimal 'use client' surface area and proper prop interfaces, 4) Streaming implementation with Suspense boundaries for progressive loading, 5) Loading UI components (loading.tsx) with skeleton screens matching the final layout, 6) Error handling with error.tsx boundaries and recovery actions, 7) Server Actions for form submissions and data mutations with validation, 8) Optimistic UI updates in client components using useOptimistic, 9) Caching strategy: which fetches should be cached, revalidated on-demand, or always fresh, 10) Shared layout implementation with data that persists across navigations, 11) Performance analysis: bytes saved by keeping components on the server, 12) Testing approach for both server and client components. Include comments explaining every server/client boundary decision.
