SvelteKit Routing & Load Function Review
Purpose
Review SvelteKit route files for correct universal-vs-server load function placement without re-litigating progressive-enhancement UX, form-action design, or component styling in every response. This skill exists because SvelteKit's universal load functions (+page.js / +layout.js) run on the server for the initial SSR render and again in the browser on every subsequent client-side navigation — a fact that is routinely missed and turns a misplaced database call or secret reference into a client-side credential exposure, not just a style defect.
When to use
Use this skill when the user asks to:
- review a new or changed SvelteKit route's
load functions before merge,
- investigate a secret, database error, or unexpected network call surfacing in the browser console or network tab for a SvelteKit route,
- determine whether data-fetching for a given route is placed in the correct file ( vs , vs ),
