## Summary
- Standard object and field metadata labels were plain strings instead
of being wrapped in Lingui `msg` template literals, which prevented
extraction into translation catalogs. This caused "Uncompiled message
detected!" warnings at runtime.
- The bug was introduced when the decorator-based approach
(`@WorkspaceEntity({ labelSingular: msg`...` })`) was replaced by flat
metadata builder utils with plain strings.
- Adds an `i18nLabel` helper to safely extract the message string from
`MessageDescriptor` objects.
- Re-runs `lingui extract` and `lingui compile` to update all locale PO
files and compiled catalogs.
- Adds an integration test that queries the metadata API with `x-locale`
headers to verify locale-aware label resolution.
- Includes a ClickHouse usage event writer integration test (small
unrelated fix noticed along the way).
## Test plan
- [ ] CI lint passes (prettier + oxlint)
- [ ] CI typecheck passes
- [ ] Server unit tests pass
- [ ] Integration tests pass (including new `object-metadata-i18n` test)
- [ ] No "Uncompiled message detected!" warnings for standard
object/field labels at runtime

## 1. The `twenty-client-sdk` Package (Source of Truth)
The monorepo package at `packages/twenty-client-sdk` ships with:
- A **pre-built metadata client** (static, generated from a fixed
schema)
- A **stub core client** that throws at runtime (`CoreApiClient was not
generated...`)
- Both ESM (`.mjs`) and CJS (`.cjs`) bundles in `dist/`
- A `package.json` with proper `exports` map for
`twenty-client-sdk/core`, `twenty-client-sdk/metadata`, and
`twenty-client-sdk/generate`
## 2. Generation & Upload (Server-Side, at Migration Time)
**When**: `WorkspaceMigrationRunnerService.run()` executes after a
metadata schema change.
**What happens in `SdkClientGenerationService.generateAndStore()`**:
1. Copies the stub `twenty-client-sdk` package from the server's assets
(resolved via `SDK_CLIENT_PACKAGE_DIRNAME` — from
`dist/assets/twenty-client-sdk/` in production, or from `node_modules`
in dev)
2. Filters out `node_modules/` and `src/` during copy — only
`package.json` + `dist/` are kept (like an npm publish)
3. Calls `replaceCoreClient()` which uses `@genql/cli` to introspect the
**application-scoped** GraphQL schema and generates a real
`CoreApiClient`, then compiles it to ESM+CJS and overwrites
`dist/core.mjs` and `dist/core.cjs`
4. Archives the **entire package** (with `package.json` + `dist/`) into
`twenty-client-sdk.zip`
5. Uploads the single archive to S3 under
`FileFolder.GeneratedSdkClient`
6. Sets `isSdkLayerStale = true` on the `ApplicationEntity` in the
database
## 3. Invalidation Signal
The `isSdkLayerStale` boolean column on `ApplicationEntity` is the
invalidation mechanism:
- **Set to `true`** by `generateAndStore()` after uploading a new client
archive
- **Checked** by both logic function drivers before execution — if
`true`, they rebuild their local layer
- **Set back to `false`** by `markSdkLayerFresh()` after the driver has
successfully consumed the new archive
Default is `false` so existing applications without a generated client
aren't affected.
## 4a. Logic Functions — Local Driver
**`ensureSdkLayer()`** is called before every execution:
1. Checks if the local SDK layer directory exists AND `isSdkLayerStale`
is `false` → early return
2. Otherwise, cleans the local layer directory
3. Calls `downloadAndExtractToPackage()` which streams the zip from S3
directly to disk and extracts the full package into
`<tmpdir>/sdk/<workspaceId>-<appId>/node_modules/twenty-client-sdk/`
4. Calls `markSdkLayerFresh()` to set `isSdkLayerStale = false`
**At execution time**, `assembleNodeModules()` symlinks everything from
the deps layer's `node_modules/` **except** `twenty-client-sdk`, which
is symlinked from the SDK layer instead. This ensures the logic
function's `import ... from 'twenty-client-sdk/core'` resolves to the
generated client.
## 4b. Logic Functions — Lambda Driver
**`ensureSdkLayer()`** is called during `build()`:
1. Checks if `isSdkLayerStale` is `false` and an existing Lambda layer
ARN exists → early return
2. Otherwise, deletes all existing layer versions for this SDK layer
name
3. Calls `downloadArchiveBuffer()` to get the raw zip from S3 (no disk
extraction)
4. Calls `reprefixZipEntries()` which streams the zip entries into a
**new zip** with the path prefix
`nodejs/node_modules/twenty-client-sdk/` — this is the Lambda layer
convention path. All done in memory, no disk round-trip
5. Publishes the re-prefixed zip as a new Lambda layer via
`publishLayer()`
6. Calls `markSdkLayerFresh()`
**At function creation**, the Lambda is created with **two layers**:
`[depsLayerArn, sdkLayerArn]`. The SDK layer is listed last so it
overwrites the stub `twenty-client-sdk` from the deps layer (later
layers take precedence in Lambda's `/opt` merge).
## 5. Front Components
Front components are built by `app:build` with `twenty-client-sdk/core`
and `twenty-client-sdk/metadata` as **esbuild externals**. The stored
`.mjs` in S3 has unresolved bare import specifiers like `import {
CoreApiClient } from 'twenty-client-sdk/core'`.
SDK import resolution is split between the **frontend host** (fetching &
caching SDK modules) and the **Web Worker** (rewriting imports):
**Server endpoints**:
- `GET /rest/front-components/:id` —
`FrontComponentService.getBuiltComponentStream()` returns the **raw
`.mjs`** directly from file storage. No bundling, no SDK injection.
- `GET /rest/sdk-client/:applicationId/:moduleName` —
`SdkClientController` reads a single file (e.g. `dist/core.mjs`) from
the generated SDK archive via
`SdkClientGenerationService.readFileFromArchive()` and serves it as
JavaScript.
**Frontend host** (`FrontComponentRenderer` in `twenty-front`):
1. Queries `FindOneFrontComponent` which returns `applicationId`,
`builtComponentChecksum`, `usesSdkClient`, and `applicationTokenPair`
2. If `usesSdkClient` is `true`, renders
`FrontComponentRendererWithSdkClient` which calls the
`useApplicationSdkClient` hook
3. `useApplicationSdkClient({ applicationId, accessToken })` checks the
Jotai atom family cache for existing blob URLs. On cache miss, fetches
both SDK modules from `GET /rest/sdk-client/:applicationId/core` and
`/metadata`, creates **blob URLs** for each, and stores them in the atom
family
4. Once the blob URLs are cached, passes them as `sdkClientUrls`
(already blob URLs, not server URLs) to `SharedFrontComponentRenderer` →
`FrontComponentWorkerEffect` → worker's `render()` call via
`HostToWorkerRenderContext`
**Worker** (`remote-worker.ts` in `twenty-sdk`):
1. Fetches the raw component `.mjs` source as text
2. If `sdkClientUrls` are provided and the source contains SDK import
specifiers (`twenty-client-sdk/core`, `twenty-client-sdk/metadata`),
**rewrites** the bare specifiers to the blob URLs received from the host
(e.g. `'twenty-client-sdk/core'` → `'blob:...'`)
3. Creates a blob URL for the rewritten source and `import()`s it
4. Revokes only the component blob URL after the module is loaded — the
SDK blob URLs are owned and managed by the host's Jotai cache
This approach eliminates server-side esbuild bundling on every request,
caches SDK modules per application in the frontend, and keeps the
worker's job to a simple string rewrite.

## Next PR
- Estimate perf improvement by implementing a redis caching for front
component client storage ( we don't even cache front comp initially )
- Implem frontent blob invalidation sse event from server
---------
Co-authored-by: Charles Bochet <charlesBochet@users.noreply.github.com>
- Makes engineComponentKey non-nullable on CommandMenuItem. Adds two new
engine component keys: TRIGGER_WORKFLOW_VERSION and
FRONT_COMPONENT_RENDERER to cover the former standalone cases.
- Unifies the previously separated engine, front component and workflow
runners into a single `CommandRunner` component with a unified
`useMountCommand` hook that handles all command types.
## Summary
- Fixes a bug where removing an option from a MULTI_SELECT field fails
with `invalid input value for enum` when existing records contain the
removed value alongside surviving values.
- The root cause was the `ELSE` branch in `updateArrayEnum` which tried
to cast removed enum values (e.g. `DISTRIBUTOR`) to the new enum type
that no longer includes them.
- The fix replaces the `ELSE` cast with a NULL-producing implicit CASE
default and uses `array_agg(...) FILTER (WHERE mapped_value IS NOT
NULL)` to silently strip removed values from existing arrays.
### Before (bug)
```sql
-- ELSE branch tries to cast removed value to new enum → crash
CASE unnest_value::text
WHEN 'IMPL' THEN 'IMPL'::new_enum
WHEN 'APP' THEN 'APP'::new_enum
ELSE unnest_value::text::new_enum -- 'DISTRIBUTOR' fails here
END
```
### After (fix)
```sql
-- No ELSE: removed values produce NULL, filtered out by array_agg
SELECT array_agg(mapped_value) FILTER (WHERE mapped_value IS NOT NULL)
FROM (
SELECT CASE unnest_value::text
WHEN 'IMPL' THEN 'IMPL'::new_enum
WHEN 'APP' THEN 'APP'::new_enum
END AS mapped_value
FROM unnest(old_column) AS unnest_value
) enum_mapping
```
## Summary
- Replaces per-provider TypeScript constant files
(`openai-models.const.ts`, `anthropic-models.const.ts`, etc.) with a
single `ai-providers.json` catalog as the source of truth
- Adds runtime model discovery via AI SDK for self-hosted providers,
with `models.dev` enrichment for pricing/capabilities
- Introduces composite model IDs (`provider/modelId`) for canonical,
conflict-free identification
- Simplifies provider configuration: API keys are injected from
environment variables (e.g., `OPENAI_API_KEY`)
- Adds admin panel UI for provider management (add/remove/test), model
discovery, recommended model configuration, and default fast/smart model
selection per workspace
- Removes deprecated config variables (`AI_DISABLED_MODEL_IDS`,
`AUTO_ENABLE_NEW_AI_MODELS`, etc.)
- Adds database migration for composite model ID format

- [ ] Server typecheck passes
- [ ] Frontend typecheck passes
- [ ] Server unit tests pass
- [ ] Frontend unit tests pass
- [ ] CI pipeline green
- [ ] Admin panel AI tab loads correctly
- [ ] Provider discovery works for configured providers

## Summary
- Fixes object `color` to use the `standardOverrides` mechanism for
standard objects, matching how `label`, `description`, and `icon`
already work
- Previously, color was written directly to the `objectMetadata.color`
column for **both** standard and custom objects, which meant user color
customizations on standard objects could be overwritten during metadata
syncs
- Custom objects continue to have `color` updated directly on the entity
(no change)
## Changes
| File | What changed |
|------|-------------|
| `object-metadata-standard-overrides-properties.constant.ts` | Added
`'color'` to `OBJECT_METADATA_STANDARD_OVERRIDES_PROPERTIES` so
`sanitizeRawUpdateObjectInput` routes color into `standardOverrides` for
standard objects |
| `resolve-object-metadata-standard-override.util.ts` | Extended to
support `'color'` as a key — handled like `icon` (no i18n/translation,
just direct override check) |
| `object-metadata.resolver.ts` | Added `@ResolveField` for `color` that
resolves through `resolveObjectMetadataStandardOverride`, matching the
existing `labelSingular`/`labelPlural`/`description`/`icon` resolve
fields |
| `flat-object-metadata-validator.service.ts` | Removed `'color'` from
`allowedOverrideKeys` for system objects since it now flows through
`standardOverrides` |
| `resolve-object-metadata-standard-override.util.spec.ts` | Added test
cases for custom object color, standard object color override, and
standard object color fallback |
| `successful-update-one-standard-object-metadata.integration-spec.ts` |
Added `'when updating color'` test case, included `color` in GraphQL
queries and `standardOverrides` fragment, reset color in `afterEach`
cleanup |
## How it works now
| Object type | Color update flow |
|---|---|
| **Custom** | Written directly to `objectMetadata.color` column |
| **Standard** | Stored in `objectMetadata.standardOverrides.color`,
resolved via `@ResolveField` at query time |
This is identical to how `label`, `description`, and `icon` have always
worked.
## Test plan
- [x] Unit tests pass
(`resolve-object-metadata-standard-override.util.spec.ts` — 21 tests)
- [x] Typecheck passes (`npx nx typecheck twenty-server`)
- [x] Lint passes (`npx nx lint:diff-with-main twenty-server`)
- [ ] Integration test snapshot regenerates correctly

on entity

## Summary
- Adds a `color` column to `ObjectMetadataEntity` with full GraphQL
support so object icon colors are persisted at the metadata level
- Adds a `type` column to `NavigationMenuItemEntity` (enum: `OBJECT`,
`VIEW`, `FOLDER`, `LINK`, `RECORD`) replacing field-based type inference
- Updates frontend to read object colors from `objectMetadata.color`
(falling back to standard defaults) in the sidebar nav, record index
header, and record show breadcrumb
- Simplifies `NavigationMenuItemIcon` color resolution via
`getEffectiveNavigationMenuItemColor` util
## Color rules
| Item type | Color source | Editable in sidebar? |
|-----------|-------------|---------------------|
| **Object** | `objectMetadata.color` | Yes — persisted to
`objectMetadata.color` on Save |
| **Folder** | `navigationMenuItem.color` | Yes |
| **Link** | Fixed default (`DEFAULT_NAVIGATION_MENU_ITEM_COLOR_LINK`) |
No |
| **View** | `objectMetadata.color` (from the parent object) | No |
| **Record** | None | No |
- **Object** items represent the whole object (e.g. "Companies") and
point to the INDEX view. Changing their color updates
`objectMetadata.color` via `useSaveObjectMetadataColorsFromDraft`.
- **View** items represent specific non-INDEX views. Their color comes
from the parent object's metadata (read-only).
- Only **folders** store their color on `navigationMenuItem.color` —
enforced by `hasNavigationMenuItemOwnColor` util.
- `getEffectiveNavigationMenuItemColor` returns `objectColor` for both
OBJECT and VIEW items, folder's own color for folders, and the fixed
default for links.
## NavigationMenuItemType enum
- Shared enum created in `twenty-shared` with values: `OBJECT`, `VIEW`,
`FOLDER`, `LINK`, `RECORD`
- Registered as a GraphQL enum on the backend
- Replaces string literals across entity, DTOs, input, converters, and
frontend hooks
- Migration backfills existing rows: INDEX views → `OBJECT`, non-INDEX
views → `VIEW`, based on join with the view table
## Design decisions
- **OBJECT vs VIEW distinction**: Items pointing to INDEX views are
typed as `OBJECT` (represent the whole object, color editable). Items
pointing to non-INDEX views are typed as `VIEW` (specific view, color
read-only from parent object).
- **Dual color storage**: `navigationMenuItem.color` is preserved for
folders only. Objects use `objectMetadata.color` as their source of
truth.
- **Type discriminator**: The `type` column replaces field-based
inference (checking `viewId`, `link`, `targetRecordId` presence) with an
explicit enum, simplifying `isNavigationMenuItemLink` /
`isNavigationMenuItemFolder` to simple `item.type ===` checks.
- **No settings page color picker**: Object color editing is done from
the sidebar edit panel, not the data model settings page.
## Test plan
- [ ] Verify objects display their default standard colors in the
sidebar
- [ ] Verify object color editing works in the sidebar edit panel
(persists to objectMetadata.color)
- [ ] Verify folder color editing works in the sidebar edit panel
- [ ] Verify views, links, and records do NOT show a color picker in the
sidebar edit panel
- [ ] Run `npx nx typecheck twenty-front` and `npx nx typecheck
twenty-server`
- [ ] Verify the database migrations add `color` to `objectMetadata` and
`type` to `navigationMenuItem`

## Summary
Closes#18673
Some languages (e.g., German "Unternehmen") and even English words
(sheep, deer, aircraft, series) have identical singular and plural
forms. Twenty previously blocked saving when labels matched, making it
impossible to correctly name objects in these cases.
- **Labels** are purely display strings — removed the equality
validation from both the frontend Zod schema and backend validator
- **API names** (nameSingular/namePlural) must stay different since they
generate distinct GraphQL resolvers (`findOne` vs `findMany`,
`createOne` vs `createMany`, etc.) and REST endpoints — this validation
is preserved
- Added a shared `computeMetadataNamesFromLabels` util in
`twenty-shared` that auto-appends `'s'` to the plural API name when both
labels produce the same camelCase name (e.g., "Unternehmen" →
`unternehmen` / `unternehmens`)
- Both the frontend form and backend sync-check use the same shared util
— single source of truth, no duplicated logic
**No retroactive impact**: since the old code prevented identical labels
from ever being saved, no existing workspace has `labelSingular ===
labelPlural`.
## Test plan
- [x] New unit tests for `computeMetadataNamesFromLabels` (7 tests:
standard labels, Sheep, Unternehmen, Aircraft, empty labels, different
labels, applyCustomSuffix)
- [x] Updated frontend schema validation tests (identical labels with
different names now passes; identical names still fails)
- [x] Updated backend integration test cases (removed identical-label
failing cases)
- [ ] Manual: create a new object with identical singular/plural labels
(e.g. "Sheep" / "Sheep") — should save successfully with API names
`sheep` / `sheeps`
- [ ] Manual: verify existing objects with different labels still work
unchanged

## Summary
- **Remove all "core" prefixes** from the views system — the
metadata-based storage migration is complete, so `CoreView`,
`coreViewsSelector`, `getCoreViews`, etc. are now just `View`,
`viewsSelector`, `getViews`
- **Eliminate the entire converter layer** (15 files, ~850 lines
deleted) — `convertCoreViewToView` and all sub-converters were either
no-ops or trivially adding `__typename` / mapping identical enum values.
Local enums now re-export from generated GraphQL types directly (single
source of truth)
- **Unify `View` and `ViewWithRelations`** into one type —
`ViewWithRelations` is now a type alias for `View`, selectors return
data directly without conversion
### Backend
- Rename `@ObjectType('CoreView')` → `@ObjectType('View')` (and all
sub-entities)
- Rename resolver methods: `getCoreViews` → `getViews`, `createCoreView`
→ `createView`, etc.
- Rename `FIND_ALL_CORE_VIEWS_GRAPHQL_OPERATION` →
`FIND_ALL_VIEWS_GRAPHQL_OPERATION`
### Frontend
- Delete 15 converter files (`convertGqlView*ToView*`,
`convertView*ToGql`, `convertViewWithRelationsToView`)
- Re-export `ViewType`, `ViewKey`, `ViewFilterGroupLogicalOperator` from
generated enums (no more duplicate enum definitions with different
casing)
- Replace `ViewOpenRecordInType` with `ViewOpenRecordIn` from generated
- Remove `__typename` from all local view sub-types
- Remove unused `variant` from `ViewFilter`, make `displayValue` and
`definition` optional
- Rename ~45 GraphQL query/mutation files and all selectors to drop
"core" prefix
- Delete unused `viewsWithRelationsSelector`
## Summary
- Renames the `FieldMetadataType` enum key from `RICH_TEXT_V2` to
`RICH_TEXT` across the entire codebase, while keeping the underlying
string value as `'RICH_TEXT_V2'` to maintain PostgreSQL database
compatibility
- Renames all related types, guards, hooks, components, and files from
`*RichTextV2*` / `*rich-text-v2*` to `*RichText*` / `*rich-text*` (e.g.
`FormRichTextV2FieldInput` → `FormRichTextFieldInput`,
`isFieldRichTextV2` → `isFieldRichText`)
- Updates generated files (GraphQL schema, SDK types) to use the new key
while preserving the `RICH_TEXT_V2` string value for DB/API layer
- Updates i18n locale files, test snapshots, and integration tests to
reflect the rename
## Context
The legacy `RICH_TEXT` (V1) field type was deprecated and migrated to
`TEXT` in a previous PR (#18623). With V1 gone, the `RICH_TEXT_V2`
naming is no longer necessary — `RICH_TEXT` is now the canonical name.
The DB enum value stays `'RICH_TEXT_V2'` to avoid confusion with the
just-deprecated V1 type and to prevent a database migration.
## Test plan

- [x] `twenty-front` typecheck passes (only pre-existing Apollo client
errors remain)

## PR Description
In the process of migrating all the existing commands to the backend, we
stumbled across a couple of problems that made us reconsider the full
migration. This PR introduces a way for command menu items to bypass
front components and to directly reference a frontend component from
twenty front.
It:
- Introduces a `engineFrontComponentKey` field on `CommandMenuItem` as
an alternative to `frontComponentId` and `workflowVersionId`, allowing
command menu items to reference frontend components by key directly
rather than requiring a FrontComponent entity
- Updates the DB constraint to allow exactly one of `workflowVersionId`,
`frontComponentId`, or `engineFrontComponentKey`
### All standard command menu items from the frontend which use
`standardFrontComponentKey`
These are all commands that execute a GraphQL query or a mutation.
Two mains concerned have been raised that made us go with this
(temporary) architecture instead:
- If those commands are part of the standard application, they can only
alter objects from that application and not custom objects.
- We would need to implement a way to trigger optimistic rendering from
the front components, which might take some time to implement.

## Summary
- Removes the `IS_APPLICATION_INSTALLATION_FROM_TARBALL_ENABLED` feature
flag, consolidating tarball-based app installation under the existing
`IS_APPLICATION_ENABLED` flag
- Removes the runtime feature flag check in `runWorkspaceMigration`
resolver (the `@RequireFeatureFlag(IS_APPLICATION_ENABLED)` decorator
already gates this endpoint)
- Cleans up related integration test setup/teardown and mock feature
flag maps
## Test plan
- [ ] Verify tarball-based app installation still works when
`IS_APPLICATION_ENABLED` is true
- [ ] Verify app installation is blocked when `IS_APPLICATION_ENABLED`
is false
- [ ] Run `failing-install-application.integration-spec.ts` to confirm
it passes without the removed flag
Made with [Cursor](https://cursor.com)
## Summary
- The `createOneApplication` GraphQL mutation was removed from the
server during the application architecture refactor (#18432), but the
SDK CLI (`app:dev`, `app:build --sync`) still called it, causing
failures.
- Simplified the SDK to use `syncApplication` (which now internally
creates the `ApplicationEntity` via `ensureApplicationExists`) instead
of a separate create step.
- On first run (clean install), the orchestrator now runs an initial
sync before initializing the file uploader, so file uploads can proceed
(they require the `ApplicationEntity` to exist).
## Test plan
- [x] Typecheck passes for both `twenty-sdk` and `twenty-server`
- [x] `app:dev` tested locally with existing app (finds app, uploads,
syncs)
- [x] `app:dev` tested locally after `app:uninstall` (creates app via
sync, uploads, syncs)
- [x] SDK unit tests pass (23/26 files, 3 pre-existing failures
unrelated)

## Summary
- **Module reorganization**: Moved `ApplicationUpgradeService` and cron
jobs to `application-upgrade/`, `ApplicationSyncService` to
`application-manifest/`, and
`runWorkspaceMigration`/`uninstallApplication` mutations to the manifest
resolver — each module now has a single clear responsibility.
- **Explicit install flow**: Removed implicit `ApplicationEntity`
creation from `ApplicationSyncService`. The install service and dev
resolver now explicitly create the `ApplicationEntity` before syncing.
npm packages are resolved at registration time to extract manifest
metadata (universalIdentifier, name, description, etc.), eliminating the
`reconcileUniversalIdentifier` hack.
- **Better error handling**: Frontend hooks now surface actual server
error messages in snackbars instead of swallowing them. Replaced the
ugly `ConfirmationModal` for transfer ownership with a proper form
modal. Fixed `SettingsAdminTableCard` row height overflow and corrected
the `yarn-engine` asset path.
## Test plan
- [ ] Register an npm package — verify manifest metadata (name,
description, universalIdentifier) is extracted correctly
- [ ] Install a registered npm app on a workspace — verify
ApplicationEntity is created and sync succeeds
- [ ] Test `app:dev` CLI flow — verify local app registration and sync
work
- [ ] Upload a tarball — verify registration and install flow
- [ ] Transfer ownership — verify the new modal UX works
- [ ] Verify error messages appear correctly in snackbars when
operations fail

## PR Description
- Uses `expr-eval` to enable front components (SDK plugins) to define
conditional availability as declarative expressions.
- Moves shared types and constants to `twenty-shared`
- Introduces a `conditionalAvailabilityExpression` field on
`CommandMenuItemEntity`, allowing command menu items to store an
`expr-eval` compatible expression string that is evaluated against a
CommandMenuContext to determine if the item should be shown.
- Creates an esbuild transform plugin
`conditional-availability-transform-plugin` in `twenty-sdk` that
converts TypeScript conditional availability expressions into
`expr-eval` compatible syntax at build time, so SDK developers can write
natural TS expressions that get transformed to evaluable strings.
- Removes deprecated `forceRegisteredActionsByKey` state and its usage.
- Creates `useCommandMenuContext` hook that builds the full
`CommandMenuContext` object from React state, which is then passed to
`useCommandMenuItemFrontComponentActions` for evaluating conditional
availability expressions.

## Summary
Follow-up to #18267. Hardens the OAuth implementation with security
fixes identified during audit:
**P0 — Critical:**
- Bind authorization codes to `client_id` in context to prevent auth
code injection (RFC 6749 §4.1.3)
- Store PKCE `code_challenge` directly in auth code context instead of a
separate `CodeChallenge` token — cryptographically binds the challenge
to its code
- Enforce `code_verifier` when `code_challenge` was used during
authorization
- Hash authorization codes (SHA-256) before storage to prevent exposure
if DB is compromised
- Add `Cache-Control: no-store` + `Pragma: no-cache` headers on token
responses (RFC 6749 §5.1)
- Add rate limiting on `/oauth/token` endpoint (20 req/min per client
via existing `ThrottlerService`)
**P1 — High:**
- Return HTTP 401 for `invalid_client` errors instead of 400 (RFC 6749
§5.2)
- Verify refresh tokens belong to the presenting client (cross-client
token theft prevention)
- Limit fields exposed by public `findApplicationRegistrationByClientId`
query to only what the frontend needs (`id`, `name`, `logoUrl`,
`websiteUrl`, `oAuthScopes`)
- Require `API_KEYS_AND_WEBHOOKS` permission for
`createApplicationRegistration` mutation
**P2/P3 — Medium/Low:**

codes, context-based PKCE, client binding, 401 status codes, cache
headers)
- [ ] New test: auth code rejected when presented by a different client
- [ ] New test: refresh token rejected when presented by a different
client
- [ ] New test: `code_verifier` required when PKCE was used in
authorization

# Introduction
Resolving each create|updated|deleted entities related entities
application through their universal foreingKey ( silently failing if not
found leaving the validator handling that )
In order to compute all the required application in the dependency flat
entity maps
## Tested
Creating a field on a custom local twenty-apps installed on the
workspace + view field
## Out of scope
- updated snapshot
- update graphql generated front
The `useSaveFieldsWidgetGroups` hook was making multiple sequential API
calls per widget (create groups, delete groups, update groups, update
fields) — non-atomic, chatty, and with heavy diff computation on the
frontend.
## Backend
- **New input DTOs**: `UpsertFieldsWidgetInput` /
`UpsertFieldsWidgetGroupInput` / `UpsertFieldsWidgetFieldInput` — caller
passes the full desired state of groups + fields for a widget
- **`FieldsWidgetUpsertService`**: looks up widget → resolves `viewId`,
diffs against existing flat entity maps, builds optimistic group maps so
newly-created groups can be referenced by field updates in the same
pass, then runs creates/updates/deletes in a single
`validateBuildAndRunWorkspaceMigration` call
- **`upsertFieldsWidget` mutation** added to `ViewFieldGroupResolver`;
new `FIELDS_WIDGET_NOT_FOUND` exception code added and wired into the
GraphQL exception filter
## Frontend
- New `UPSERT_FIELDS_WIDGET` GQL document
- `useSaveFieldsWidgetGroups` replaces all per-operation calls with a
single mutation per widget, passing the full draft state — diff logic
moves entirely to the backend
```graphql
mutation UpsertFieldsWidget($input: UpsertFieldsWidgetInput!) {
upsertFieldsWidget(input: $input) {
id
name
position
isVisible
viewId
viewFields { id isVisible position ... }
}
}
```
Widget IDs are collected from both draft **and** persisted state so
widgets whose draft groups were cleared still trigger deletion of their
server-side groups.

# Introduction
## Centralize system field definitions
- Extract a single `PARTIAL_SYSTEM_FLAT_FIELD_METADATAS` constant as the
source of truth for all 8 system fields (`id`, `createdAt`, `updatedAt`,
`deletedAt`, `createdBy`, `updatedBy`, `position`, `searchVector`),
eliminating duplication across custom object and standard app field
builders
- Refactor `buildDefaultFlatFieldMetadatasForCustomObject` to use the
shared constant via a new `buildObjectSystemFlatFieldMetadatas` helper
## Mark system fields as `isSystem: true`
- Fields `id`, `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, `deletedAt`, `createdBy`,
`updatedBy`, `position`, `searchVector` are now properly flagged as
system fields across all standard objects and custom object creation
- Standard app field builders for all ~30 standard objects updated to
set `isSystem: true` on `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, `deletedAt`,
`createdBy`, `updatedBy`
- System-only standard objects (blocklist, calendar channels, message
threads, etc.) now also include `createdBy`, `updatedBy`, `position`,
`searchVector` field definitions that were previously missing
## Validate system fields on object creation
- New transversal validation (`crossEntityTransversalValidation`) runs
after all atomic entity validations in the build orchestrator, ensuring
all 8 system fields are present with correct `type` and `isSystem: true`
when an object is created
- New `buildUniversalFlatObjectFieldByNameAndJoinColumnMaps` utility to
resolve field names to universal identifiers for a given object
- New exception codes: `MISSING_SYSTEM_FIELD` and `INVALID_SYSTEM_FIELD`
on `ObjectMetadataExceptionCode`
## Protect system fields and objects from mutation
- Field validators now block update/delete of `isSystem` fields by
non-system callers (`FIELD_MUTATION_NOT_ALLOWED`)
- Object validators now block update/delete of `isSystem` objects by
non-system callers
- `POSITION` and `TS_VECTOR` field type validators replaced: instead of
rejecting creation outright, they now validate that the field is named
correctly (`position` / `searchVector`) and has `isSystem: true`
## Distinguish `isSystemBuild` from `isCallerTwentyStandardApp`
- New `isCallerTwentyStandardApp` utility checks whether the caller's
`applicationUniversalIdentifier` matches the twenty standard app
- Name-sync logic (`isFlatFieldMetadataNameSyncedWithLabel`,
`areFlatObjectMetadataNamesSyncedWithLabels`) refactored to use
`isCallerTwentyStandardApp` for custom suffix decisions, keeping
`isSystemBuild` for mutation permission checks
- `WorkspaceMigrationBuilderOptions` type updated to include
`applicationUniversalIdentifier`
## Adapt frontend filtering
- New `HIDDEN_SYSTEM_FIELD_NAMES` constant (`id`, `position`,
`searchVector`) and `isHiddenSystemField` utility to only hide truly
internal fields while keeping user-facing system fields (`createdAt`,
`updatedAt`, `deletedAt`, `createdBy`, `updatedBy`) visible in the UI
- ~20 frontend files updated to replace `!field.isSystem` checks with
`!isHiddenSystemField(field)` across record index, settings, data model,
charts, workflows, spreadsheet import, aggregations, and role
permissions
## Add 1.19 upgrade commands
- **`backfill-system-fields-is-system`**: Raw SQL command to set
`isSystem = true` on existing workspace fields matching system field
names, and fix `position` field type from `NUMBER` to `POSITION` for
`favorite`/`favoriteFolder` objects. Includes proper cache invalidation.
- **`add-missing-system-fields-to-standard-objects`**: Codegen'd
workspace migration to create missing `position`, `searchVector`,
`createdBy`, `updatedBy` fields on standard objects that didn't
previously have them. Runs via `WorkspaceMigrationRunnerService` in a
single transaction with idempotency check. **Known limitation**: assumes
all standard objects exist and are valid in the target workspace.
## Add `universalIdentifier` for system fields in standard object
constants
- `standard-object.constant.ts` updated to include `universalIdentifier`
for `createdBy`, `updatedBy`, `position`, and `searchVector` across all
standard objects
- `fieldManifestType.ts` updated to support the new field manifest shape
## System relation
Completely removed and backfilled all `isSystem` relation to be false
false
As we won't require an object to have any relation system fields
## Add integration tests
- New test suite `failing-sync-application-object-system-fields`
covering: missing system fields, wrong field types (`id` as TEXT,
`createdAt` as TEXT, `position` as TEXT), system field deletion
attempts, and system field update attempts
- New test utilities: `buildDefaultObjectManifest` (builds an object
manifest with all 8 system fields) and `setupApplicationForSync`
(centralizes application setup)
- Existing successful sync test updated to verify system fields are
created with correct properties
## Next step
Make the builder scope the compared entity to be the currently built app
+ nor twenty standard app
## Summary
- Adds an `objectRecordCounts` query on the `/metadata` GraphQL endpoint
that returns approximate record counts for all objects in the workspace
- Uses PostgreSQL's `pg_class.reltuples` catalog stats — a single
instant query instead of N `COUNT(*)` table scans
- Replaces the previous `CombinedFindManyRecords` approach which hit the
server's 20 root resolver limit and silently showed 0 for all counts on
the settings Data Model page
### Server
- `ObjectRecordCountDTO` — GraphQL type with `objectNamePlural` and
`totalCount`
- `ObjectRecordCountService` — reads `pg_class` catalog for the
workspace schema
- Query added to `ObjectMetadataResolver` with `@MetadataResolver()` +
`NoPermissionGuard`
### Frontend
- `OBJECT_RECORD_COUNTS` query added to
`object-metadata/graphql/queries.ts`
- `useCombinedGetTotalCount` simplified to a zero-argument hook using
the new query
- `SettingsObjectTable` simplified to a single hook call

## Sync page layouts, tabs, and widgets
Adds the ability for SDK applications to synchronize `pageLayout`,
`pageLayoutTab`, and `pageLayoutWidget` entities, following the same
pattern established in #18003 for views and navigation menu items.
### Changes
**`twenty-shared`**
- New `PageLayoutManifest`, `PageLayoutTabManifest`, and
`PageLayoutWidgetManifest` types with a hierarchical structure (page
layout → tabs → widgets)
- Added `pageLayouts: PageLayoutManifest[]` to the `Manifest` type
**`twenty-sdk`**
- New `definePageLayout()` SDK function with validation for
universalIdentifier, name, and nested tabs/widgets
- Wired into the manifest extraction and build pipeline
(`DefinePageLayout` target function, `PageLayouts` entity key)
- Exported from the SDK entry point
**`twenty-server`**
- Added `pageLayout`, `pageLayoutTab`, `pageLayoutWidget` to
`APPLICATION_MANIFEST_METADATA_NAMES`
- New conversion utilities: manifest → universal flat entity for all
three entity types
- Updated `computeApplicationManifestAllUniversalFlatEntity
## Summary
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1e75cc9d-d9d2-4ef2-99f9-34450f5d8de7
Add background incremental type checking (`tsc --watch`) to the SDK dev
mode, so type regressions are caught when the generated API client
changes — without requiring a full rebuild of source files.
Previously, removing a field from the data model would regenerate the
API client, but existing front components/logic functions referencing
the removed field wouldn't surface type errors (since their source
didn't change, esbuild wouldn't rebuild them).
## What changed
- **Background `tsc --watch`**: a long-lived TypeScript watcher runs
alongside esbuild watchers, incrementally re-checking all files when the
generated client changes. Only logs on state transitions (errors appear
/ errors clear) to stay quiet.
- **Atomic client generation**: API client is now generated into a temp
directory and swapped in atomically, avoiding a race condition where
`tsc --watch` could see an empty `generated/` directory
mid-regeneration.
- **Step decoupling**: orchestrator steps no longer receive
`uploadFilesStep` directly. Instead, they use callbacks (`onFileBuilt`,
`onApiClientGenerated`), and each step manages its own `builtFileInfos`
state.
- **`apiClientChecksum` omitted from `ApplicationConfig`**: it's a
build-time computed value, same as `packageJsonChecksum`.

## Add API client generation to SDK dev mode and refactor orchestrator
into step-based pipeline
### Why
The SDK dev mode lacked typed API client generation, forcing developers
to work without auto-generated GraphQL types when building applications.
Additionally, the orchestrator was a monolithic class that mixed watcher
management, token handling, and sync logic — making it difficult to
extend with new steps like client generation.
### How
- **Refactored the orchestrator** into a step-based pipeline with
dedicated classes: `CheckServer`, `EnsureValidTokens`,
`ResolveApplication`, `BuildManifest`, `UploadFiles`,
`GenerateApiClient`, `SyncApplication`, and `StartWatchers`. Each step
has typed input/output/status, managed by a new `OrchestratorState`
class.
- **Added `GenerateApiClientOrchestratorStep`** that detects
object/field schema changes and regenerates a typed GraphQL client (via
`@genql/cli`) into `node_modules/twenty-sdk/generated` for seamless
imports.
- **Replaced `checkApplicationExist`** with `findOneApplication` on both
server resolver and SDK API service, returning the entity data instead
of a boolean.
- **Added application token pair mutations**
(`generateApplicationToken`, `renewApplicationToken`) to the API
service, with the server now returning `ApplicationTokenPairDTO`
containing both access and refresh tokens.
- **Restructured the dev UI** into `dev/ui/components/` with dedicated
panel, section, and event log components.
- **Simplified `AppDevCommand`** from ~180 lines of watcher management
down to ~40 lines that delegate entirely to the orchestrator.
