How to set og:description in Next.js (App Router)

The preview card shows a title and an image with no supporting line, which reads as a bare link and converts worse than one that explains itself.

The fix for Next.js (App Router)

13x detects your framework from the response and hands you this version rather than the generic one — below 50% confidence it hedges and gives you the generic one instead.

ts code
export const metadata: Metadata = {
  openGraph: { description: "One sentence that makes the link worth clicking." },
};

On a different stack? The general version of this fix explains what 13x checks and why it matters, without assuming a framework.
