## Stack Auth → Hexclave rename — PR 5 (internal symbols, paths,
packages, brand strings)
PR 5 finishes the **internal / non-wire** half of the Stack→Hexclave
rename. It only touches things where nothing outside the repo depends on
the exact name: internal symbols, file/dir names, the
`@stackframe/template` package, and residual brand strings. Plan +
progress are in `HEXCLAVE-RENAME-PR5-PLAN.md`.
Every step was verified green (`pnpm typecheck` + `pnpm lint`, 28/28)
and committed as its own checkpoint, then a fan-out of review agents
audited all commits and the findings were fixed.
### What changed
- **Internal symbols** (`@hexclave/shared`, `packages/template`, apps):
`stack*`/`Stack*` → `hexclave*`/`Hexclave*` — incl.
`stackGlobalsSymbol`, the `_Stack*AppImpl` classes,
`stackAppInternalsSymbol`, `StackContext`, `getStackStripe`, etc. The
`stack*App` local-variable convention
(`stackServerApp`/`stackClientApp`/…) was renamed across 175
source/example/doc files.
- **File renames**: `hexclave-handler/provider/context.tsx`,
`backend/hexclave.tsx`, `internal-tool/hexclave.ts`,
`hexclave-app-internals.ts`.
- **Directory renames**: `lib/hexclave-app`, `hexclave-companion`,
`[...hexclave]` route segment, `skills/hexclave`,
`dashboard/src/hexclave`, and the package dirs
**`packages/{next,shared,ui,sc,cli}`** (dropping the `stack-` prefix to
match the `@hexclave/*` npm names).
- **Packages**: `@stackframe/template` → `@hexclave/template`; **deleted
`packages/init-stack`** (onboarding lives in `@hexclave/cli init`; the
published npm package is untouched).
- **Brand strings**: reworded `Stack Auth`/`Stack dashboard` prose in
code + docs-mintlify, renamed `hexclave-app.mdx`/`use-hexclave-app.mdx`
with redirects, regenerated OpenAPI, updated coupled e2e assertions;
`doctor`/`init` now prefer `hexclave.config.ts`.
### Intentionally kept (verified, not oversights)
Wire/compat identifiers (`x-stack-*` headers, `stack-*` cookies,
`STACK_*` env names, `*.stack-auth.com`, `stackauth_`, `ask_stack_auth`,
query params), public `Stack*` SDK aliases, crypto/JWT/vault
domain-separation tags, `*-brand-sentinel`s, the
`Symbol.for("StackAuth--…")` string, `_stack_sync_metadata`, Postgres
`stackframe` / docker image names, the `stack-auth-logo*.svg` (used by
the rebrand modal), and `migration.mdx` / "formerly known as Stack Auth"
notes. False positives (Phosphor `StackIcon`/`StackSimple`, `TanStack`,
`OrbStack`, `stackable`/`Stacked` charts) left alone.
### Review pass
Six review agents audited all commits. Found + fixed one real bug — a
build script (`bundle-type-definitions.ts`) hardcoded the old
`lib/stack-app` glob path (not an import, so typecheck/lint were blind),
silently emptying the dashboard AI type bundle — plus stale comments, a
dead CI env var, and stale `.gitignore`/`.dockerignore` entries.
Cross-cutting audit confirmed **zero wire-compat identifiers were
accidentally renamed**.
### ⚠️ Verification note
`typecheck` + `lint` are fully green locally. The **e2e suite was not
run** (needs a live backend+DB), so the brand-string assertion +
OpenAPI-regen changes are verified by grep/codegen only — please let CI
exercise e2e to confirm.
### Base-branch note
This branch was forked from the local-only `cl/friendly-lewin-72293f`
(not on origin, no separate PR), so this PR against `dev` also carries
that branch's ~11 preceding Hexclave-rename commits (config-file rename,
env-var dual-read, AI setup-prompt rebrand). If those should land
separately, re-parent before merge.

## Summary by cubic
Finishes the internal Stack Auth → Hexclave rename and cleans up
remaining stragglers, including dev-tool and prompt copy. All changes
are internal-only; public/wire APIs remain unchanged. Re-merged `dev`
and resolved the payments create-purchase-url conflict.
- **Refactors**
- Internal symbols: stack*/Stack* → hexclave*/Hexclave* (e.g.,
`getHexclaveServerApp` via `@/hexclave`, `getHexclaveStripe`,
`hexclaveAppInternalsSymbol`, `hexclaveSchemaInfo`, Prisma
`__hexclave_*`, `data-hexclave-handler-page`, Stripe mock
`hexclavePortPrefix`).
- Files/dirs: moved to `lib/hexclave-app`; handler route
`[...hexclave]`; backend entry `src/hexclave.tsx`; dashboard internals
`hexclave-app-internals`; companion `hexclave-companion`; dropped
`stack-` prefix across package dirs
(`packages/{shared,ui,sc,cli,next}`); workflows/emulator paths now
`packages/cli`; Quetzal codegen env at `packages/next/.env.local`.
- Packages/docs: `@stackframe/template` → `@hexclave/template`; removed
`packages/init-stack`; regenerated OpenAPI and updated docs
slugs/redirects for hexclave-app/use-hexclave-app.
- Brand strings/prompts: reworded remaining “Stack” dashboard strings to
Hexclave; updated dev-tool copy and prompts; `doctor/init` now prefer
`hexclave.config.ts`. Kept all wire-compat identifiers and public
aliases (`x-stack-*`, `stack-*` cookies, `STACK_*` env,
`*.stack-auth.com`, `Stack*` SDK names).
- Rebased/merged onto latest `dev`: retained `@hexclave/template`, kept
`src` in published files, refreshed setup-prompt imports and docs JSON,
adopted 1.0.5 version bumps, and re-merged `dev` again (resolved
`create-purchase-url` with `getHexclaveStripe`).
- **Bug Fixes**
- Restored dashboard AI type bundle by pointing the glob to
`packages/template/src/lib/hexclave-app`.
- Addressed rename leftovers: updated lingering `@/stack` imports and
CSS selector, fixed schema/meta and port-prefix expansions, and aligned
emulator commands to `packages/cli`.
- CI/build: removed a dead env var and stale ignore entries; fixed
Docker by renaming `STACK_SKIP_TEMPLATE_GENERATION` →
`HEXCLAVE_SKIP_TEMPLATE_GENERATION`.

## Summary
Follow-up to #1452. `Sec-Fetch-Mode` / `Sec-Fetch-Dest` didn't reliably
split HTML vs. markdown at the CDN edge, so curl could still get the
HTML landing page. Switch to the `Accept` header:
- Browsers send `Accept: text/html,...` on top-level navigations.
- `curl`, `fetch()`, and agent fetchers send `*/*` or omit `Accept`.
- Serve HTML only when `text/html` is explicitly listed; everything else
gets `SKILL.md`.
- `Vary` updated to `Accept` to match.
## Test plan
- [ ] Deploy preview
- [ ] `curl -sSL https://skill.stack-auth.com/ | head -3` returns
markdown frontmatter
- [ ] Browser load of `https://skill.stack-auth.com/` still shows the
HTML landing page
- [ ] Purge Vercel cache if stale variants persist

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **Bug Fixes**
* Improved content format negotiation for skill resources to correctly
serve HTML or markdown based on client requests.
* **Chores**
* Optimized caching behavior for edge and CDN services to enhance global
content distribution efficiency.

## Summary
- Adds `Vary: Sec-Fetch-Mode, Sec-Fetch-Dest` on the skills app root
route so the CDN caches markdown and HTML responses separately.
- Fixes production behavior where `curl https://skill.stack-auth.com/`
could return the browser HTML landing page (cached from a
`Sec-Fetch-Mode: navigate` request) instead of the canonical `SKILL.md`
body.
## Context
The route already content-negotiates: browsers with `Sec-Fetch-Mode:
navigate` get HTML; `curl` and agents get markdown. Without `Vary`,
Vercel served a single cached variant to all clients.
## Test plan
- [ ] Deploy or preview the skills app
- [ ] `curl -sSL https://skill.stack-auth.com/ | head -3` returns
markdown (`---` frontmatter), not `<!doctype html>`
- [ ] Open `https://skill.stack-auth.com/` in a browser — still shows
the HTML landing page
- [ ] Purge Vercel cache if stale HTML persists after deploy

## Summary
- Adds a `hexclave` SKILL.md pointer skill that fetches the live skill
body on every invocation
- Adds an `/SKILL.md` route on the MCP app that renders the full skill
(CLI usage + docs sidebar generated from `docs.json`)
- Expands `docs-mintlify/guides/getting-started/ai-integration.mdx` with
three install paths (CLI, Skill, MCP) and per-agent config snippets
- Updates `packages/stack-shared/src/helpers/init-prompt.ts` to install
both the MCP server and skill file, with per-project vs global scope
detection
## Test plan
- [ ] `pnpm typecheck`
- [ ] `pnpm lint`
- [ ] Hit the MCP app's `/SKILL.md` endpoint locally and verify it
returns valid markdown with the full docs sidebar
- [ ] Render the updated `ai-integration.mdx` in Mintlify preview and
confirm tabs/cards render

guidance.
* Added a health-check endpoint.
