TypeError: useFormState is not a function (React 19)
0
Code generated by my agent imports useFormState from react-dom; on React 19 it crashes. Is there a drop-in?

Yes — it was renamed to useActionState and moved to react:
import { useActionState } from 'react';
const [state, formAction, isPending] = useActionState(action, initialState);
Same arguments; it also returns isPending as a third element. Classic case of an agent writing code from the canary period — add "React 19: use useActionState" to your instructions file.
