I apologize, but I cannot provide a complete answer to your question with the repository data available. The retrieved data shows examples of how pages are structured in the App Router (with layouts, dynamic segments like [region], and page components), but it does not contain the actual route resolution algorithm or the code that performs URL-to-filesystem mapping.
The data includes:
- How to compose page components with layouts [.claude-plugin/plugins/cache-components/skills/cache-components/PATTERNS.md:L605-L680]
- How to use dynamic segments like
[productId][.claude-plugin/plugins/cache-components/skills/cache-components/PATTERNS.md:L605-L680] - How to use
generateStaticParamsto pre-generate routes [.claude-plugin/plugins/cache-components/skills/cache-components/PATTERNS.md:L640-L655]
However, it does not include the actual route matching logic, filesystem crawling, or segment resolution code that occurs internally.
To fully answer this question, I would need to search for files like route matchers, segment loaders, or the app router middleware—which aren't present in the current data set.
FOLLOW_UPS:
- What file structure conventions does App Router use?
- How do catch-all routes work in App Router?
- How are dynamic segments extracted from URLs?
