## 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

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **Documentation**
* Rewrote the AI integration guide with complete, user-facing
instructions for connecting Stack Auth to coding agents; removed the
separate MCP setup page and updated site navigation.
* Added the canonical Stack Auth skill content and guidance that clients
should fetch the latest skill at runtime.
* **New Features**
* MCP now serves the canonical Stack Auth skill dynamically and provides
interactive skill responses.
* Init prompts now include full MCP + skill install workflows and scope
guidance.
* Added a health-check endpoint.
* **Chores**
* Added scaffold and configs for a new skills app (build, dev, lint, and
type settings).

## 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.

## 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.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* TanStack Start integration: published SDK package, example demo app,
dashboard onboarding flow, framework-aware CTAs/docs, and a
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.
