## What it is
A PostCSS plugin that inlines the content of CSS @import rules, resolving files from local paths, node_modules, or web_modules. It deduplicates imports and lets downstream PostCSS plugins process the stylesheet as a single file.

## Use cases
- inline css @import rules into a single stylesheet
- bundle css files with postcss
- import css from node_modules
- deduplicate css imports in build pipeline
- process multi-file css as one ast for postcss plugins

## When to choose
- you use PostCSS and want @import inlining before other plugins run
- you need to consume CSS from node_modules or web_modules
- you want spec-compliant @import handling with duplicate skipping

## When to avoid
- you need glob imports without an extension plugin
- you need to import remote URLs natively (use postcss-import-url)
- your build tool already bundles CSS imports (e.g. webpack, Vite)

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: active
- function: build-tool, middleware
- domain: web-development, frontend, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: css, postcss-plugin, at-import, css-modules, bundler-utility, nodejs
