## 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.

## Problem
`hexclave dev` re-execs itself through `npx <pkg>@latest`
(`maybeReexecToLatest`) so users always get the latest dashboard without
reinstalling. But when that npx run **fails**, it exits nonzero and we
did `process.exit(result.code)` — killing `hexclave dev` even though a
perfectly good CLI was already installed locally.
This surfaced on **Replit**, where a user running `hexclave dev` got:
```
npm notice Access denied: Your download has been blocked by the Socket Security Policy.
Reason: AI-detected potential malware.
npm error code ECOMPROMISED
npm error Lock compromised
```
Diagnosis: the user's `pnpm` is aliased to `sfw pnpm` (**Socket
Firewall**), and Replit enforces an org-level Socket Security Policy.
Socket **blocks the `@hexclave/cli@latest` download** (false-positive
"AI-detected malware", almost certainly the bundled minified dashboard).
The interrupted download breaks npx's reify while it holds its cache
lock, which npm reports as `Lock compromised`. The lock message is a
*downstream symptom*; the real failure is the blocked download.
The same class of failure (blocked download, npm error, lock contention,
offline) all share one shape: **npx exits nonzero before our CLI ever
runs**, and today that takes down `hexclave dev`.
## Fix
Use a **startup-marker handshake** to distinguish the two cases:
- The parent passes a temp marker path to the npx child via
`STACK_CLI_REEXEC_MARKER`.
- The re-exec'd child touches the marker the instant it starts
(`signalReexecStartedIfChild`).
- After the child exits (`decidePostReexec`):
- exited 0, or nonzero **with** the marker present → our CLI ran;
**propagate** the exit code (real command result).
- nonzero **without** the marker, or npx not spawnable → our CLI never
ran; **fall back** to the installed CLI instead of failing `hexclave
dev`.
The marker only needs file create/exists (robust on sandboxed/networked
filesystems). If the marker can't be created, we preserve the old
always-propagate behavior, so there's no spurious-fallback risk.
`decidePostReexec` and `signalReexecStartedIfChild` are pure and
unit-tested.
## Verification
- `pnpm test run src/lib/self-update.test.ts` → 23 passing (added cases
for the fallback decision and the marker handshake).
- `pnpm typecheck` / `pnpm lint` → clean.
- End-to-end: forced a real npx failure (unreachable registry → npx
exits nonzero before our CLI runs) and confirmed `hexclave dev` now logs
`Auto-update skipped: …; continuing with the installed CLI.` and
proceeds into the installed dev path instead of dying.
## Notes / follow-ups (not in this PR)
- Workaround for affected users today: `STACK_CLI_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1` (or
`--no-auto-update`) skips the npx download entirely.
- Worth reporting the Socket false-positive to socket.dev to allowlist
`@hexclave/cli`, and reconsidering shipping a ~165 MB minified dashboard
inside the npm tarball (it's what trips AI-malware heuristics and slows
cold installs).

## Summary by cubic
Prevent `hexclave dev` from exiting when `npx @latest` auto-update fails
by falling back to the installed CLI. Signal-based aborts now propagate
as a nonzero exit (never NaN), so Ctrl-C doesn’t relaunch dev.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Fall back to the installed CLI when `npx <pkg>@latest` fails before
the CLI starts (firewalls, offline, npm lock errors). Do not fall back
when the child is killed by a signal; propagate 128+signum with a safe
nonzero fallback if the signum is unknown.
- Startup-marker handshake: parent sets `REEXEC_MARKER_ENV`
(`HEXCLAVE_CLI_REEXEC_MARKER`); child touches it on start;
`decidePostReexec` chooses propagate vs fallback. If the marker can’t be
created, keep the old always-propagate behavior.
- Scrub the marker env from user commands using the exported constant,
covering both Windows and POSIX spawn paths.

## Summary
Replaces `writeConfigObject` (destructive overwrite) with
`updateConfigObject` — an async, AI-aware updater that preserves
user-authored config structure (imports, external file references,
helpers).
**Dual-path approach:**
- **Fast path** (deterministic, no AI): plain static literal configs →
`override()` + in-memory validation + atomic write
- **Agent path** (custom structure): configs with `import x from
"./file.txt" with { type: "text" }` etc. → Claude agent edits the
external files in place, then validates
**Safety guarantees:**
- Snapshot/restore: config + all relative imports are captured before
the agent runs; rolled back on any failure
- In-memory validation on fast path (never write unvalidated bytes)
- Semantic check when config is evaluable; no-op detection + structural
check when it isn't
- Path traversal guard on imports (rejects `../` escapes)
- Agent isolation: `settingSources: []`, `strictMcpConfig: true`,
`CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_AUTO_MEMORY`, no Bash tool
- `scheduleSync` only fires after a successful update
- Bounded 120s timeout on agent runs (configurable via env var)
CI failures are preexisting on `dev`
(`ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH` from overrides move without
lockfile regen); this branch has zero lockfile changes vs dev.

## Documentation
Docs for this feature were added in this branch:
- **New page**
`docs-mintlify/guides/going-further/local-development.mdx` — covers
`stack dev`, the development-environment flow, and how dashboard edits
are written back to the local config file (structure-preserving fast
path vs. assistant path, external `import … with { type: "text" }`
templates, validation + rollback). Added to `docs.json` nav; also fixes
the previously-broken `/guides/going-further/local-development` links
from `index.mdx` and `self-host.mdx`.
- **`docs-mintlify/guides/going-further/cli.mdx`** — added a `stack dev`
("Run a development environment") section.
- **Skill-site AI prompts** — filled in the `config-docs` and
`dashboard-instructions` placeholders under
`packages/stack-shared/src/ai/unified-prompts/skill-site-prompt-parts/`,
and added a structure-preserving note to the setup prompt.
- **`CHANGELOG.md`** — user-facing entry.

## 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.

## What & why
Re-running `stack dev` / `hexclave dev` now picks up the **latest
published dashboard without reinstalling the CLI**.
In the RDE, the dashboard is a Next.js standalone build **bundled into
the `@hexclave/cli` npm tarball** — so a dashboard change only reaches a
user when they get a newer CLI *version*. This PR closes that gap for
the recommended `stack dev` flow.
## How it works
1. **npx self-re-exec** — at the top of the `dev` action, the CLI checks
npm for a newer `@hexclave/cli`. If found, it re-execs `npx --yes -p
@hexclave/cli@<latest> stack dev <your args>` (with a loop guard) and
exits with the child's code. The running code — and the dashboard
bundled in that tarball — is now the latest; the user's installed
devDependency is untouched. npx caches per version, so steady-state runs
are fast.
2. **Dashboard version handshake** (the necessary second half) — `stack
dev` keeps a **detached background dashboard** alive across runs and
reuses it by default, which would otherwise silently defeat the update.
The now-latest process compares the running dashboard's version
(persisted in dev-env state) against its own and **kills + restarts**
the stale one (SIGTERM → wait → SIGKILL) so the new dashboard actually
binds `:26700`. Equal/older/unknown versions are reused exactly as
before.
## Safety / opt-outs
- Skipped for the re-exec'd child (`STACK_CLI_SKIP_AUTO_UPDATE`, loop
guard), when the user opts out (`STACK_CLI_NO_AUTO_UPDATE` /
`--no-auto-update`), and in CI (`CI`).
- Registry lookup is TTL-cached in dev-env state with a short timeout
and is **offline-safe** — any failure (no network, no npx) falls through
to the installed CLI.
- `isVersionNewer` never downgrades and returns false for unparseable
versions.
## Changes
- **`packages/stack-cli/src/lib/self-update.ts`** (new) —
`maybeReexecToLatest()`, `resolveLatestVersion()`, `isVersionNewer()`,
`buildNpxInvocation()`.
- **`packages/stack-cli/src/commands/dev.ts`** — re-exec wiring,
`killLocalDashboard()`, version handshake, `--no-auto-update` flag,
version stamp on the recorded dashboard process.
- **`packages/stack-cli/src/lib/dev-env-state.ts`** —
`localDashboard.version` + `cliUpdateCheck` cache helpers.
- Tests: new `self-update.test.ts` + additions to
`dev-env-state.test.ts`.
## Verification
- `pnpm --filter @hexclave/cli run lint` ✅
- `pnpm --filter @hexclave/cli run typecheck` ✅
- `pnpm --filter @hexclave/cli run test` ✅ (132 passed)
## Prerequisite
Relies on `@hexclave/cli` being published to npm with the `latest`
dist-tag tracking releases — otherwise the check is a no-op (which is
safe).

## Summary by cubic
`hexclave dev` now re-execs via `npx` to run the latest `@hexclave/cli`,
so the bundled RDE dashboard stays current without reinstalling. It
reuses the running dashboard and only restarts it when the current CLI
is strictly newer.
- **New Features**
- Auto-update: always re-execs `npx --yes --min-release-age=0 -p
@hexclave/cli@latest hexclave dev ...`; runs in CI; opt out with
`--no-auto-update` or `STACK_CLI_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1`.
- Per-port dashboard version handshake: records the CLI version per port
and restarts only when strictly newer; otherwise reuses it (respects
`NEXT_PUBLIC_HEXCLAVE_LOCAL_DASHBOARD_PORT`).
- **Bug Fixes**
- Safer restarts: after SIGTERM, wait for the port to free instead of
pid probes; bail on ESRCH/EPERM; only SIGKILL if the port still answers.
- Robust execution: ship a single `hexclave` bin (fixes `pnpx`/`pnpm
dlx`), forward SIGINT/SIGTERM to children, validate per-port dashboard

reliable (`npx.cmd` with shell and argv quoting).

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* CLI can auto-check and re-exec to a pinned newer release (opt-out:
--no-auto-update).
* Local dashboard startup is version-aware and only restarts when the
CLI is strictly newer.
* Improved child-process signal forwarding for cleaner shutdowns.
* **Tests**
* Expanded unit tests covering dev workflow, self-update, package
metadata, persistence, and dashboard lifecycle.
* **Bug Fixes**
* Updated user-facing CLI messaging to use "hexclave" command names.
* **Chores**
* Removed legacy docs workspace entry.

## 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`.
