Include migration guides in generated starter prompts - #830
Conversation
When the user brief indicates a Next.js or Remix/React Router migration, append an instruction telling the downstream agent to fetch the relevant tanstack.com migration guide and follow it. Keeps the guide out of the analyze stage and out of the UI; only affects the final generation prompt.

Fix the Remix migration guide URL path.
The URL in src/components/application-builder/shared.ts (line 62) uses a stale path (/docs/guide/how-to/...). The current TanStack Router migration doc path is under /docs/how-to/.... The current URL returns HTTP 500 error, while the correct path returns HTTP 200. This broken URL is used to generate instructions for agents in src/utils/application-starter.server.ts, directing them to an invalid page.
🔧 Proposed fix
export const STARTER_REMIX_MIGRATION_GUIDE_URL =

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Review comments at @src/utils/application-starter.ts:
- Around line 1487-1489: Update the Next.js and Remix migration regex patterns
used by getStarterMigrationGuideUrl to allow line breaks between migration
intent and the framework name, while preserving their existing case-insensitive
matching and framework alternatives.
- Line 1302: Update the migration-reference instruction near the
migrationGuideUrl prompt so Remix-to-TanStack Start migrations do not treat the
React Router guide as the primary ordered procedure. Make the fresh TanStack
Start scaffold and Remix-specific migration guidance authoritative, while
allowing the guide to inform only applicable routing concepts.
- Line 1487: Update nextJsMigrationPattern so it matches only framework-specific
Next.js mentions, such as “Next.js” or “Next”, rather than any occurrence of
“next” after migration wording; preserve matching for explicit Next.js migration
requests while preventing phrases like “Migrate my Remix app next week” from
selecting the Next.js guide.
- Line 1281: Update the ApplicationStarterWorkspace flow so the
migration-guide-enriched prompt is not passed through displayedSummary to
ApplicationStarterSummaryPanel or rendered by GeneratedPromptPreviewCard during
the analyze-stage preview. Keep migrationGuideUrl and its instructions applied
only on the final generation path, while preserving the existing analyze
response behavior.

Keep migration-guide instructions out of the UI prompt preview.
The analyze-stage response excludes prompt, so it does not expose the guide instruction. However, ApplicationStarterWorkspace passes latestStarterResult.prompt through displayedSummary to ApplicationStarterSummaryPanel, which renders it in GeneratedPromptPreviewCard. Keep the guide-enriched prompt on the final generation path only.

Good catches. The guide matching and conflicting setup instructions are corrected. The generated prompt preview stays consistent with what gets copied.

Migration prompts currently omit the guide URL even though the old guide helper is still exported. Wire that existing helper into the active deterministic prompt generator for Next.js, Remix and React Router migrations, and use the working Router
