## Summary
Completes the env-var side of the Hexclave rebrand: every
`STACK_*`-prefixed variable (including `NEXT_PUBLIC_STACK_*` and
`VITE_STACK_*`) is renamed to `HEXCLAVE_*` across all checked-in `.env`,
`.env.development`, and `.env.example` files (30 files, ~135 keys).
Legacy `STACK_*` names keep working everywhere via dual-read, so
**existing deployments, `.env.local` files, and self-hosted setups need
no immediate migration**.
## How legacy names keep working
- **Server code** already resolves `HEXCLAVE_*` first with `STACK_*`
fallback via `getEnvVariable`. Direct `process.env.STACK_X` readers fed
by the renamed files (prisma seed, e2e tests/helpers, internal-tool
scripts, examples, `prisma.config.ts`) now read `HEXCLAVE_X || STACK_X`.
- **Client code** (Next.js build-time inlining) uses literal dual-read
expressions; the dashboard's `_inlineEnvVars` already had them.
- **Docker/self-hosting**: `docker/server/entrypoint.sh` (shared by the
server and local-emulator images) gets a generic two-way
`HEXCLAVE_`↔`STACK_` env mirror — runs at startup and again before
sentinel replacement — replacing the previous URL-trio-only mirror.
Operators can use either prefix.
## The empty-placeholder trap (`||` vs `??`)
The checked-in templates define empty placeholders (`HEXCLAVE_X=#
comment` parses to `""` via dotenv). With `?? `-based fallbacks, that
empty string would silently shadow a real value under the legacy name —
including legacy vars set in Vercel/CI env at build time, since the
tracked `.env` is present during builds. All fallback chains therefore
treat empty-as-unset (`||`):
- `getEnvVariable` and `getProcessEnv` in `packages/shared`
- the dashboard/docs/example literal dual-reads
- the generated SDK env getters (via
`packages/template/scripts/generate-env.ts`; the generated
`src/generated/env.ts` files are gitignored and regenerate at build)
## Other notable changes
- Tests that override env now set the canonical `HEXCLAVE_*` name (it
wins over `STACK_*`): e2e `cross-domain-auth`, backend
`internal-feedback-emails` in-source test.
- e2e `helpers.ts` port-prefix expansion loop also matches the
`HEXCLAVE_` prefixes.
- `docker/local-emulator/generate-env-development.mjs` reads source keys
canonically (legacy fallback) and emits canonical keys; regenerated
output matches.
- `rotate-secrets.sh` falls back to
`HEXCLAVE_DATABASE_CONNECTION_STRING`.
- Docs code snippets (`docs/code-examples`) renamed outright to
canonical names, consistent with #1571.
- OAuth callback `console.warn` in `packages/template/src/lib/auth.ts`
now says Hexclave.
## Migration note for the team
Local `.env.local` files with legacy `STACK_*` overrides keep working
**unless** the override targets a var that `.env.development` now sets
to a real (non-empty) `HEXCLAVE_*` value — the canonical name wins over
file precedence. Rename those keys in your `.env.local` once.
## Verification
- `typecheck` + `lint` pass on every touched package (shared, backend,
dashboard, e2e, internal-tool, cli, docs, template). Pre-existing
failures on dev (`admin-app-impl.ts` typecheck, dashboard metrics-page
errors) are unchanged (identical error counts with/without this change).
- `getEnvVariable`/`getProcessEnv` fallback semantics smoke-tested
directly (empty-HEXCLAVE → legacy fallback, HEXCLAVE wins when set,
defaults intact).
- `internal-feedback-emails` in-source vitest passes; emulator env
generator `--check` passes; `bash -n` on touched shell scripts.
- Two independent review agents audited the diff for correctness bugs
and coverage gaps; all confirmed findings are fixed in the third commit.

## Summary by cubic
Renamed all `STACK_*` env vars (including
`NEXT_PUBLIC_STACK_*`/`VITE_STACK_*`) to `HEXCLAVE_*` across env
templates and code, with dual‑read that treats empty as unset, detects
conflicts, ignores post‑build sentinels, and falls back to legacy names.
All GitHub Actions now use `HEXCLAVE_*`; local‑emulator e2e is fixed by
setting `NEXT_PUBLIC_HEXCLAVE_IS_LOCAL_EMULATOR` in CI.
- **Refactors**
- Added conflict‑aware dual‑read helpers (prefer `HEXCLAVE_*`,
empty‑as‑unset, ignore post‑build sentinels, preserve empty passthrough)
and used them across `packages/shared` (resolver + tests),
`apps/dashboard` inline/public envs (with tests), `apps/backend` Prisma
config/seed and vitest (accept both prefixes), `packages/cli`
(API/Dashboard URLs, project ID, `HEXCLAVE_EMULATOR_HOME`; tests),
Docker (`entrypoint.sh` mirroring + `rotate-secrets.sh` DB URL),
docs/components (`docs/src/lib/env.ts`), and examples; hosted/Vite apps
now error if both spellings differ.
- Port‑prefix expansion includes `HEXCLAVE_*`; backend tests use a new
helper to resolve DB connection strings; Prisma prefers
`HEXCLAVE_DATABASE_CONNECTION_STRING` with legacy fallback.
- Generated SDK env getters use plain `HEXCLAVE_*` || `STACK_*` (no
conflict throw); dashboard inline resolver preserves empty/sentinel
passthrough to avoid build failures; docs/examples include dual‑read
utilities.
- Tests now stub canonical `HEXCLAVE_*` flags (e.g., plan limits, bot
challenge, OAuth tokens, hosted handler) to avoid shadowing/conflict
with committed defaults.
- **Migration**
- No immediate action; legacy `STACK_*` names still work.
- If both names are set with different values, builds/scripts error. Set
only `HEXCLAVE_*` or make both equal.
- SDK consumers won’t see conflict throws; update env names to
`HEXCLAVE_*` over time.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **Chores**
* Migrated environment variable names from the legacy `STACK_*` prefix
to the new `HEXCLAVE_*` prefix across backend, dashboard, tooling,
Docker, and examples.
* Updated environment/config resolution to prefer `HEXCLAVE_*`, treat
empty strings as unset, and detect conflicts when both `STACK_*` and
`HEXCLAVE_*` are set to different values.
* Updated local emulator, server startup, and env-generation workflows
to use the new names (with legacy fallback where applicable).
* **Documentation**
* Updated docs and code examples to reference `HEXCLAVE_*` variables.
* **Tests**
* Refreshed unit and e2e coverage to validate dual-read behavior,
conflict detection, and empty-value handling.

**This PR revolves around the following components**
1. Sequencer - sequences the updates in the internal db
2. Poller - polls for the latest updates to sync with the external db
3. Outgoing Request Handler - essentially a trigger that can make http
requests based on a change in the internal db
4. Sync Engine - syncs with the latest changes from the internal db to
the external db
**What has been done**
- Added a global sequence id for ProjectUser, ContactChannel and
DeletedRow.
- Added the deletedRow table to keep track of the rows that were deleted
across ProjectUser and ContactChannel.
- Added the OutgoingRequest table to keep track of the outgoing requests
- Added function for the sequencer to call to sequence updates
- Added a sequencer that sequences all the changes in the internal db
every 50 ms
- Added a poller that polls for the latest changes in the internal db
every 50 ms, and adds to a queue
- Added a Vercel cron that calls sequencer and poller every minute
- Added a queue that fulfills the outgoing requests by making http calls
(for external db sync, it calls the sync engine endpoint)
- Added a sync engine that uses the defined sql mapping query in the
user's schema to pull in the changes for the user, and sync them with
the external db
- Added tests to test out each functionality
**How to review this PR:**
1. Review the migrations (sequence id, deletedRow, triggers, backlog
sync) (all files created under the migrations folder)
2. Review sequencer
3. Review poller
4. Review the changes in schema
5. Review sync-engine (the function, and it's helper file)
6. Review the schema changes, and query mappings
7. Review the tests (basic, advanced and race, along with the helper
file)
8. Review the changes made in Dockerfile to support local testing using
the postgres docker

> [!NOTE]
> Introduces a cron-driven external DB sync pipeline with global
sequencing, internal poller and webhook sync engine, new DB
tables/functions, config schema/mappings, and comprehensive e2e tests.
>
> - **Database (Prisma/Migrations)**:
> - Add global sequence (`global_seq_id`) and
`sequenceId`/`shouldUpdateSequenceId` to `ProjectUser`,
`ContactChannel`, `DeletedRow` with partial indexes.
> - Create `DeletedRow` (capture deletes) and `OutgoingRequest` (queue)
tables; add unique/indexes.
> - Add triggers/functions: `log_deleted_row`,
`reset_sequence_id_on_update`, `backfill_null_sequence_ids`,
`enqueue_tenant_sync`.
> - **Backend/API**:
> - New internal routes: `GET
/api/latest/internal/external-db-sync/sequencer`, `GET /poller`, `POST
/sync-engine` (Upstash-verified) for sync orchestration.
> - Add cron wiring: `vercel.json` schedules and local
`scripts/run-cron-jobs.ts`; start in dev via `dev` script.
> - Tweak route handler (remove noisy logging) without behavior change.
> - **Sync Engine**:
> - Implement `src/lib/external-db-sync.ts` to read tenant mappings and
upsert to external Postgres (schema bootstrap, param checks,
sequencing).
> - Add default mappings `DEFAULT_DB_SYNC_MAPPINGS` and config schema
`dbSync.externalDatabases` in shared config.
> - **Testing/Infra**:
> - Add extensive e2e tests (basics, advanced, race conditions) for
sequencing, idempotency, deletes, pagination, multi-mapping, and
permissions.
> - Docker compose: add `external-db-test` Postgres for tests; e2e deps
for `pg` types.
