## Problem
A user hit `Failed to register development environment session (500)`
when running the RDE (`hexclave dev` / `stack dev`). Removing
`defineStackConfig` from their `stack.config.ts` made it go away.
**Root cause:** the local dashboard evaluates the project's config file
in a plain Node context via `jiti`
([config-file.ts](apps/dashboard/src/lib/remote-development-environment/config-file.ts)).
When the config imports a *value* (e.g. `defineStackConfig`) from a
framework package like `@stackframe/stack` / `@hexclave/next`, jiti
executes the entire SDK — React, `server-only`, Next internals — which
throws in that context. The exception propagated as a bare 500. Dropping
`defineStackConfig` removed the value import, so jiti no longer loaded
the framework.
## Changes
**1. Graceful error (Fix 3)**
`readConfigFile` now wraps the `jiti.import` in try/catch and rethrows a
message pointing at the lightweight import path, instead of a raw 500.
**2. Lightweight `/config` subpath (Fix 1)**
Added a side-effect-free `./config` entrypoint to the framework packages
— `@hexclave/{js,next,react,tanstack-start}/config` — that re-exports
`defineHexclaveConfig` / `defineStackConfig` + the `HexclaveConfig` type
from `@hexclave/shared/config`, with **no framework runtime**. Source of
truth:
[`packages/template/src/config.ts`](packages/template/src/config.ts) +
the export in
[`package-template.json`](packages/template/package-template.json),
propagated to the generated packages via `generate-sdks`.
> Why per-package and not `@hexclave/shared/config`: `@hexclave/shared`
is only a *transitive* dependency from a user's perspective, so
importing from it fails under pnpm strict mode. Users depend on the
framework package directly, so `@hexclave/next/config` always resolves.
This was confirmed empirically — the previous tests that imported
`@hexclave/shared/config` were red.
**3. Docs / prompts / renderer aligned to the new path**
-
[`ai-setup-prompt.ts`](packages/shared/src/ai/unified-prompts/skill-site-prompt-parts/ai-setup-prompt.ts)
+ regenerated `docs-mintlify` (setup.mdx, llms-full.txt, snippets).
- Hand-written
[`hexclave-config.mdx`](docs-mintlify/guides/going-further/hexclave-config.mdx)
and
[`local-vs-cloud-dashboard.mdx`](docs-mintlify/guides/going-further/local-vs-cloud-dashboard.mdx).
(`docs/**` left untouched — legacy.)
- `renderConfigFileContent` (the config file the dashboard/CLI
auto-writes) now emits `import type { HexclaveConfig } from
"<pkg>/config"`. Legacy `@stackframe/*` packages predate the subpath, so
they keep their root import (guarded).
## Behavioral note
Existing config files that import from a package root get their import
line upgraded to `/config` on their next dashboard/CLI sync — a
one-time, harmless rewrite that migrates them onto the safe path. The
github-config-push idempotence test was updated to use the current
`/config` format so it still genuinely verifies "no spurious commit."
## Testing
- 43 unit tests pass across `config-file`, `github-config-push`,
`config-rendering`, `config-authoring`, `local-emulator`. The two
previously-red RDE `define*` tests now pass through jiti via
`@hexclave/next/config` (the real code path), and were made
resolution-stable by rooting their temp dir at the test file instead of
`process.cwd()`.
- Typecheck green on all source-changed packages (shared, cli, js, next,
react, tanstack-start). Lint clean.
- ⚠️ The two e2e suites (`cli.test.ts`, `config-local-emulator.test.ts`)
need backend+DB infra; their snapshot updates are mechanical and
**confirmable only in CI**.

## Summary by cubic
Prevents 500s when loading `hexclave.config.ts` by adding a lightweight
`<pkg>/config` entrypoint and showing a clear, actionable error without
leaking framework stacks. Import detection, rendering, CLI, tests, and
docs now default to `/config` (including `@hexclave/tanstack-start`) so
configs load in plain Node contexts.
- **New Features**
- Added `/config` subpaths in `@hexclave/js`, `@hexclave/next`,
`@hexclave/react`, `@hexclave/tanstack-start` (and template)
re-exporting `defineHexclaveConfig`, `defineStackConfig`, and
`HexclaveConfig` with no framework runtime.
- Renderer, CLI, and docs import `HexclaveConfig` from `<pkg>/config`;
legacy `@stackframe/*` keep root imports. Existing config files
auto-upgrade on next dashboard/CLI sync.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Wrapped `jiti` config load with try/catch; capture raw error for
diagnostics and show a concise message pointing to `<pkg>/config` (no
nested framework stack traces).
- Import detection accepts optional `/config` suffix; renderer always
appends `/config` for Hexclave packages and recognizes
`@hexclave/tanstack-start`.
- Tests stabilized by scoping temp dirs to the test file; CLI error
example now references `HexclaveConfig` from `<pkg>/config` for Hexclave
packages.
