Validate the diagnostic

Confirm the reported code matches this rule before you edit it.

Confirm the reported code matches react-doctor/no-duplicate-static-id-reference. Compare it with the Before example and verify the same API, framework, and execution context. Treat it as a false positive only when one of those conditions differs.

Compare the code

The corrected pattern shows a focused way to address the diagnostic.

Reported pattern

<>
  <label htmlFor="email">Work email</label>
  <input id="email" />
  <input id="email" />
</>;

Corrected pattern

const Form = () => (
  <>
    <label htmlFor="email">Email</label>
    <input id="email" />
    <input id="backup-email" />
  </>
);

How to fix

Use the corrected pattern as a reference. Preserve behavior that the rule does not require you to change.

Copyable fix prompt

Copy this self-contained prompt into your coding agent after you confirm the diagnostic.

Fix every confirmed react-doctor/no-duplicate-static-id-reference diagnostic in the current repository. Required change: - Give every statically referenced element a unique id within the rendered JSX tree.

Reference transformation:Before:

<>
  <label htmlFor="email">Work email</label>
  <input id="email" />
  <input id="email" />
</>;

After:

  <>
    <label htmlFor="email">Email</label>
    <input id="email" />
    <input id="backup-email" />
  </>
);

Constraints: - Confirm the reported code matches the Before pattern. - Make the smallest change that fixes the root cause. - Preserve behavior and interfaces unrelated to this diagnostic. - Reuse existing project components, utilities, and conventions. - Do not introduce render-phase side effects, render-phase state updates, or Hooks rule violations. - Preserve accessible names, focus order, keyboard behavior, and touch access not targeted by this rule. - Adapt identifiers and framework details instead of copying blindly. - Do not disable the rule or suppress matching code. - Confirm this rule is enabled for the project: react. Verification: - Run focused tests for the changed behavior. - Run React Doctor and confirm this diagnostic no longer appears. - Report the files changed and any checks you could not run.
