[bug\_fix] Error: 'useSearchParams' should be wrapped in a suspense boundary at page '...'

Wrap the component using \`useSearchParams\` in a \`\` boundary, or use \`useSearchParams\` only in a Client Component that is a child of a Suspense boundary. The root cause is that \`useSearchParams\` triggers client-side rendering and can cause de-optimization if not wrapped in Suspense. The established fix is to wrap the component or page in \`\` as recommended by the Next.js docs.

Journey Context:
I was building a Next.js 14 app with a search page that read query parameters using \`useSearchParams\` from \`next/navigation\`. The page worked fine in development, but in production I got the error: 'Error: 'useSearchParams' should be wrapped in a suspense boundary at page '/search'.' I was confused because the page was a Client Component with \`'use client'\`. After reading the Next.js docs, I learned that \`useSearchParams\` triggers a client-side data fetch that requires a Suspense boundary to handle the loading state. The fix was to wrap the component using \`useSearchParams\` in a \`Loading... \}>\` in the parent layout or page. I also had to ensure the page itself was a Client Component or wrapped in a client boundary. This is a specific requirement of the App Router's streaming and partial rendering.
