   # @kubb/plugin-react-query
 
-  Generate type-safe React Query hooks from your OpenAPI schema for data fetching, caching, and synchronization.
+  Generate one [TanStack Query](https://tanstack.com/query) hook per OpenAPI operation. Queries become `useFooQuery`/`useFooSuspenseQuery`/`useFooInfiniteQuery`; mutations become `useFooMutation`. Each hook is fully typed: query keys, input variables, response data, and error shape all come from the spec.
+
+  Pairs with `@kubb/plugin-client` for the HTTP layer and `@kubb/plugin-ts` for types.

+          Folder (or single file) where the plugin writes its generated code. The path is resolved against the global `output.path` set on `defineConfig`.
+
+          Use a folder to keep each generator's output isolated (`'types'`, `'clients'`, `'hooks'`). Use a single file when you want everything in one place, for example `'api.ts'`.
         tip: |
-          if `output.path` is a file, `group` cannot be used.
+          When `output.path` points to a single file, the `group` option cannot be used because every operation ends up in the same file.

+        description: |
+          Controls how the generated `index.ts` (barrel) file re-exports the plugin's output.
+
+          - `{ type: 'named' }` re-exports each symbol by name. Best for tree-shaking and explicit imports.
+          - `{ type: 'all' }` uses `export *`. Smaller barrel file, but exports everything.
+          - `{ nested: true }` creates a barrel in every subdirectory, so callers can import from any depth.
+          - `false` skips the barrel entirely. The plugin's files are also excluded from the root `index.ts`.
         tip: |
-          Using `propagate` will prevent a plugin from creating a barrel file, but it will still propagate, allowing [`output.barrelType`](https://kubb.dev/docs/5.x/configuration#output-barreltype) to export the specific function or type.
+          Pick `'named'` when consumers care about which symbols they import (better tree-shaking, friendlier auto-import). Pick `'all'` when the file count is small and you want a one-line barrel.

-      Grouping combines files in a folder based on a specific `type`.
+      Splits generated files into subfolders based on the operation's tag, so each tag in your OpenAPI spec gets its own directory.
+
+      Without `group`, every file lands in the plugin's `output.path` folder. With `group`, files are bucketed under `{output.path}/{groupName}/`, where `groupName` is derived from the operation's first tag.
+    tip: |
+      Use `group` to mirror your API's domain structure (pet, store, user) in the generated code. Combine it with `output.barrel: { type: 'named', nested: true }` to get per-tag barrel files.

             body: |
-              Use `importPath` when you want to:
+              Reach for a custom client when you need to:
 
-              - **Customize the HTTP client**: Provide your own client implementation with custom configurations (e.g., baseURL, headers, interceptors)
-              - **Add authentication**: Include authentication tokens or other security mechanisms in your client
-              - **Override default behavior**: Replace the default Kubb client with your own implementation
+              - Add an auth token to every request.
+              - Plug in interceptors, retries, or logging.
+              - Configure `baseURL` and headers from environment variables.
+              - Wrap a library other than `axios`/`fetch`.
           - title: Default behavior
             body: |
-              When `importPath` is not specified:
+              Without `importPath`:
 
-              - If `bundle: false` (default): Uses `@kubb/plugin-client/clients/${client}` where client is either `axios` or `fetch`.
-              - If `bundle: true`: Bundles the client into `.kubb/fetch.ts`.
-          - title: Import structure
-            body: "Generated code imports the client as a default import and the runtime types as named type imports:"
+              - `bundle: false` (default) — generated code imports from `@kubb/plugin-client/clients/{axios|fetch}`.
+              - `bundle: true` — Kubb writes `.kubb/client.ts` and generated code imports from there.
+          - title: Required exports
+            body: |
+              The module pointed to by `importPath` must satisfy the same shape as the built-in client. At minimum:
+
+              - A default export of the `client` function.
+              - A `RequestConfig` type.
+              - A `ResponseErrorConfig` type.
+
+              When used together with a query plugin (`@kubb/plugin-react-query`, `@kubb/plugin-vue-query`), it must also export a `Client` type alias.
+          - title: How generated files import it
+            body: |
+              Generated code imports the client as a default import (bound to the local name `client`) and the runtime types as named type imports:

         important: |
-          When using `importPath` with query plugins such as `@kubb/plugin-react-query` or `@kubb/plugin-vue-query`, the generated hooks also import a `Client` type alongside `RequestConfig` and `ResponseErrorConfig` from the custom module. Your custom client module **must** export all three types — if any is missing, TypeScript will report an unresolvable import error.
+          When used with query plugins (`@kubb/plugin-react-query`, `@kubb/plugin-vue-query`), generated hooks also import a `Client` type alias. Your module **must** export `Client`, `RequestConfig`, and `ResponseErrorConfig` — TypeScript will fail the import otherwise.

     tip: |
-      When `paramsType` is set to `'object'`, `pathParams` will also be set to `'object'`.

-      - `'object'` returns params and pathParams as an object.
-      - `'inline'` returns params as comma-separated params.

+

     important: |
-      When using `paramsCasing`, ensure that `@kubb/plugin-ts` also has the same `paramsCasing` setting. This option automatically maps transformed parameter names back to their original API names in HTTP requests.

+      Callers write friendly camelCase names. The generated client maps them back to whatever the API expects (snake_case path params, kebab-case headers, ...).

+
+      Each entry filters by one of:
+
+      - `tag` — the operation's first tag.
+      - `operationId` — the operation's `operationId`.
+      - `path` — the URL pattern (`'/pet/{petId}'`).
+      - `method` — HTTP method (`'get'`, `'post'`, ...).
+      - `contentType` — the media type of the request body.
+
+      `pattern` accepts a plain string or a `RegExp`. When both `include` and `exclude` are set, `exclude` wins.
