## Summary
Refreshes the docs around Stack Auth setup, CLI workflows, local
development, the local emulator, known SDK errors, self-hosting, and the
public showcase. This also wires the new docs into Mintlify navigation
and normalizes `sharp` dependency resolution for docs/image tooling.
Base: `dev` -> Head: `docs-mintlify/updates`
Scope: 17 files, +1154 / -435
## What's New
- Adds a dedicated **Stack CLI** guide covering install, auth, init
modes, project commands, config pull/push, `stack exec`, and emulator
commands.
- Adds a full **Local Emulator** guide for QEMU requirements, ports,
default credentials, config-file backed projects, image pulls, state,
and troubleshooting.
- Reworks **Local Development** around two supported workflows:
cloud-backed local dev and emulator-backed local dev, including app env
vars, local config files, CI usage, and common failure modes.
- Rewrites **Self-host** around the supported `stackauth/server` Docker
deployment path, including Postgres, ClickHouse, cron scheduling, seeded
admin access, reverse proxy setup, SDK env vars, email, webhooks, S3
storage, upgrades, and common issues.
- Adds a **Known Errors** reference for public SDK-exposed known errors,
runtime `errorCode` values, and REST API handling.
- Clarifies **CLI App Authentication** so users can distinguish
authenticating their own CLI app from using the official `stack`
command.
- Updates the JWT guide to remove the missing inline viewer reference
and recommend an external JWT viewer.
- Adds showcase cards for Browser Use and Overworld with supporting
images and styles.
- Pins `sharp` to `0.34.5` through pnpm overrides and lockfile cleanup.
## Review Notes
- The self-host guide was audited against the current Docker entrypoint,
server env templates, seed script, ClickHouse migration behavior, cron
endpoints, and SDK API URL env resolution.
- The Docker image starts the backend and dashboard, but not production
schedulers, so the new cron section is called out explicitly.
- Managed Domain email setup is documented as operator-managed because
it depends on server-side Resend/DNSimple credentials; self-hosters are
directed toward Custom SMTP or their own Resend API key.
- `self-host-old.mdx` is kept as a legacy reference file and is not
added to navigation.
- `emulator run` documentation now matches CLI behavior: it stops the
emulator only when it started that emulator instance.
## Test Plan
- [x] Reviewed all files changed by `origin/dev...HEAD`.
- [x] Ran `git diff --check origin/dev...HEAD`.
- [x] Checked IDE diagnostics for the changed docs/CLI files.
- [ ] Preview Mintlify docs locally and click through new navigation
entries.
- [ ] Verify showcase cards and images in light and dark themes.
- [ ] Smoke-test the copied self-host commands in a non-production
Docker environment.

### Context
One script grants free plan to any team which is a customer of the
internal project who doesnt have it already.
We also want to migrate our users (internal) to the latest version of
their products.
Needed because some subs on dev right now dont have a plan. And internal
isnt using latest version of its own growth plan.
### Describing the Paths we want to Account for
1. Users on production who currently don't have a plan should get free
plans, since this script is run with every migrate
2. Users on production should get the latest version of each plan of
ours. So a forced migration to latest version of internal project plans
3. No other project's products/product lines should be affected. They
will continue to have product versioning
4. 2 should apply to test mode subscriptions as well, on top of stripe
subscriptions. All of them should be refreshed
5. Internal project itself should get latest version of its own growth
plan
6. If the bulldozer write fails, we should be able to recover on next
migration (this should already be handled by init bulldozer script,
because it checks if prisma db and bulldozer db are out of sync)
7. if the regenerate or backfill fail, we should be able to recover just
by rerunning the script
8. Product version table should not balloon. No table should really
balloon
### What I've tested on local
1. Put in 1000 db subscription rows, made them all stale and then ran
the regen script. It took about 6 minutes to update all of them, and it
was idempotent so rerunning it again did nothing.
2. With proper stripe keys I switched off of test mode on the internal
app, granted a product to a new team and updated the product's item
list. At this point I checked and the new team had the outdated version
of the product. Then I ran the regen script and the new team was moved
to latest product version.
3. Tried the above with the internal team's growth plan too and it
worked as well.
4. Backfill actually grants free plan
### Deployment strategy in prod
Run the backfill and the regen scripts once each after your migrations
on the prod db.
`pnpm db:backfill-internal-free-plans` will make sure every team has a
free plan at least if they dont have an existing plan (and it is
idempotent).
After that, run `pnpm db:regen-internal-subscriptions-to-latest` which
will migrate every user to the latest version of their plan (i.e latest
snapshot). This should also be idempotent.

latest product versions.
* **Chores**
* Added CLI commands and package scripts to run backfill and regen jobs.
* Database init now runs payment initialization before backfill/regen.
* **Tests**
* Integration and unit tests added/updated to validate backfill,
regeneration, and free-plan idempotency.

## Summary
- Adds the generated `@stackframe/tanstack-start` workspace package
registration.
- Adds TanStack Start platform macros/dependencies to the SDK template
and generator.
- Adds TanStack Start cookie/token-store support plus the handler SSR
guard needed by Start.
## Scope
This intentionally excludes Dashboard V2 routes, hooks, components, app
shell logic, and dashboard API type additions. Those stay in the
existing dashboard PR/branch.
## Validation
- `pnpm install --lockfile-only --ignore-scripts`
- `pnpm install --ignore-scripts`
- `pnpm -C packages/template lint
src/components-page/stack-handler-client.tsx src/lib/cookie.ts
src/lib/stack-app/apps/implementations/client-app-impl.ts`
Package typecheck was attempted with `pnpm -C packages/template
typecheck`, but the clean worktree lacks generated package declaration
outputs for workspace dependencies such as `@stackframe/stack-shared`
and `@stackframe/stack-ui`. Per repo instructions, package
builds/codegen are not run by agents.

TanStack-specific provider for client-only auth routes.
* Improved client/server auth: safer runtime guards and consistent
cookie/token-store behavior across SSR and client.
* **Documentation**
* New Integrations guide and expanded getting-started/setup docs with
TanStack Start examples and env/key guidance.
* **Chores**
* Template, build, tooling, and demo config updates to support the new
platform.

## Summary
Splits the Stack Auth MCP server out of `apps/backend` and into a
dedicated Next.js app at `apps/mcp/`, served on port `:42` (suffixed via
`NEXT_PUBLIC_STACK_PORT_PREFIX`) and exposed in production at
`https://mcp.stack-auth.com/mcp`. The backend no longer carries the MCP
transport route; clients now point at the new host.
Base: `dev` → Head: `chore/move-mcp-to-a-sep-app`
Scope: 34 files, +1425 / −353
## What changed
- **New app** `apps/mcp/` — standalone Next.js + `@vercel/mcp-adapter`,
with:
- `src/app/api/internal/[transport]/route.ts` — MCP transport handler
(moved from backend)
- `src/app/mcp/route.ts`, `src/app/route.ts` — public landing + setup
page
- `src/app/health/route.ts` — health check
- `src/mcp-handler.ts`, `src/setup-page.ts`, `src/analytics.ts`
- **Backend** drops
`apps/backend/src/app/api/internal/[transport]/route.ts` (−105) — MCP
code is gone from the backend image.
- **Dashboard** install hint updated to point at
`https://mcp.stack-auth.com/mcp` (was `/`).
- **Dev launchpad** gets an MCP tile so the new service shows up
alongside the rest of the local stack.
- **CI** workflows (`db-migration-backwards-compatibility`,
`e2e-api-tests*`) start the MCP service in the background before running
tests.
- **Docs** (`docs-mintlify`, `docs/`) and `init-stack` / `init-prompt`
updated to reference the new URL.
- **E2E** `apps/e2e/tests/backend/endpoints/api/v1/internal/mcp.test.ts`
reworked to hit the new host; `helpers.ts` and env files gain an MCP
base-URL var.
## Visuals
### New `apps/mcp` setup page (`https://mcp.stack-auth.com/`)
The standalone app's root now serves a self-contained MCP setup guide
with per-client instructions (Cursor, VS Code, Codex, Claude Code,
Claude Desktop, Windsurf, ChatGPT, Gemini CLI):

### Dev launchpad now lists the MCP service
New tile at port suffix `:42`, importance 2, alongside Backend /
Dashboard / Demo app:

## Notes for reviewers
- The MCP transport endpoint moved path: it was mounted under
`/api/internal/[transport]` in the backend; in the new app it's at the
same path but on the dedicated host. The public-facing URL is
`https://mcp.stack-auth.com/mcp`.
- `apps/mcp` ships its own PostHog analytics client (`src/analytics.ts`)
so the backend doesn't have to proxy events for it anymore.
- Port allocation: `${PORT_PREFIX}42` (default `8142` in dev). Picked to
fit the existing dev-launchpad importance-2 row.
- No DB migrations.
## Test plan
- [x] `apps/mcp` builds and `pnpm dev` serves on `:8142`
- [x] Dev launchpad renders the new MCP tile (screenshot above)
- [x] MCP setup page renders client tabs (screenshot above)
- [x] E2E `mcp.test.ts` updated to hit the new host
- [ ] CI green on `e2e-api-tests*` and
`db-migration-backwards-compatibility` workflows (they were touched to
start the MCP service)
- [ ] `init-stack` / `mcp.ts` install flow lands users on the new URL

## High-level PR Summary
This PR changes the default development ports for several background
services to avoid conflicts. PostgreSQL moves from port `5432` to
`8128`, Inbucket SMTP from `2500` to `8129`, Inbucket POP3 from `1100`
to `8130`, and the OpenTelemetry collector from `4318` to `8131`. All
references across configuration files, Docker Compose setups,
environment files, CI/CD workflows, test files, and documentation have
been updated to reflect these new port assignments. A knowledge base
document has been added to document the new port mappings.

Removes Platform selection, moves docs to single /content folder and no
longer gens docs. Only API docs are generated here.
<!-- RECURSEML_SUMMARY:START -->
## High-level PR Summary
This PR makes significant changes to the documentation structure by
removing platform-specific content organization and consolidating docs
into a single `/content` folder. The primary goal is to simplify the
documentation architecture by eliminating the platform-specific routing
(Next.js, React, JavaScript, Python) and instead organizing content by
topic (guides, SDK, components) regardless of platform. The PR removes
platform selection functionality, platform-specific navigation, and the
automatic generation of platform-specific documentation pages. It
introduces a new docs tree filtering system that organizes content by
section rather than by platform. These changes should make the
documentation more maintainable and easier to navigate while focusing on
the content itself rather than platform-specific variations.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **Documentation**
* Added many new guides (auth providers, OAuth, JWT, API keys, emails,
webhooks, orgs/teams, permissions, onboarding, customization), expanded
SDK & component reference pages, examples, and navigation metadata.
* Switched docs to a simpler section-based, platform-agnostic structure
and improved getting-started and production checklists.
* **Developer Experience**
* Enhanced docs UX: improved code-example UI with platform/framework
selectors, theme-aware highlighted code blocks, image zoom, and a
centralized code-sample registry.

- fixes https://github.com/stack-auth/stack-auth/issues/530
Adding [commander](https://github.com/tj/commander.js) to parse CLI
arguments and options. Commander auto generates a help section based on
configured options.
Both `npx @stackframe/init-stack` and `npx @stacframe/init-stack --next`
both should initialize auth in working directory
```bash
➜ init-stack git:(dev) ✗ node dist/index.js --version
2.7.25
➜ init-stack git:(dev) ✗ node dist/index.js --help
Usage: @stackframe/init-stack [project-path] [options]
Stack Auth Initialization Tool
Arguments:
project-path Path to your project
Options:
-V, --version output the version number
--dry-run Run without making any changes
--neon Use Neon database
--js Initialize for JavaScript project
--next Initialize for Next.js project
--npm Use npm as package manager
--yarn Use yarn as package manager
--pnpm Use pnpm as package manager
--bun Use bun as package manager
--client Initialize client-side only
--server Initialize server-side only
--no-browser Don't open browser for environment variable setup
-h, --help display help for command
