Description

Summary

Collection of issues related to improving developer experience in Vercel preview environments. Preview deployments should behave as closely to production as possible while still pointing to the correct preview URLs.

Problem

Several features that work correctly in production have issues in preview environments because URLs are hardcoded to production domains or not properly detected.

Child Issues

  • #565 - Cross-app navigation links use prod URLs instead of preview URLs
  • #580 - Report sharing URLs use prod prefix instead of preview prefix

Acceptance Criteria

  • Preview deployments should use preview URLs for all internal links
  • Shareable links generated in preview should point to the preview environment
  • Cross-app navigation (website ↔ calculator) should work within preview deployments

Research direction

Start by reviewing child issues #565 and #580, then trace how preview deployments construct internal navigation and sharing URLs. Done means preview deployments use preview URLs for internal links, shareable links, and website-to-calculator navigation rather than production URLs.
