## Summary
- Add `defineCommandMenuItem` and `definePageLayoutWidget` as standalone
SDK defines, mirroring the existing `definePageLayoutTab` pattern. Both
entities can still be declared nested inside their parent
(`defineFrontComponent.command` / `definePageLayout.tabs[].widgets[]`).
- Add `CommandMenuItem` and `PageLayoutWidget` to the `SyncableEntity`
enum and the dev-mode UI labels.
- Wire the SDK manifest-build to extract the two new defines into
top-level `commandMenuItems` / `pageLayoutWidgets` arrays on the
manifest, and the server aggregator to consume them through the existing
flat-entity converters.
- On the server, expose `Application.commandMenuItems` (relation + DTO +
service hydration in `findOneApplication`).
- On the front, list command menu items in the application content tab
and add a dedicated detail page with a settings tab, mirroring how
`frontComponents` are surfaced.
- Add `twenty add` templates and Vitest unit tests for both new defines.
- Document the standalone-vs-nested pattern in
`packages/twenty-sdk/README.md`.
### Why
Until now, command menu items could only be declared as the nested
`command:` field on `defineFrontComponent` — there was no way to
register a command menu item from a separate file or from another
package. The `SyncableEntity` enum had 12 values, while the server
already synced 18 (including `commandMenuItem` and `pageLayoutWidget`).
The same gap existed for `pageLayoutWidget`, which had no top-level
define despite being synced server-side. This PR closes both gaps and
aligns the SDK surface with what the server actually accepts.
The standalone defines coexist with the nested form — pick one per
entity, never both with the same `universalIdentifier` (the manifest
aggregator will throw on duplicates). The README now documents this.
## Test plan
- [x] `npx nx typecheck twenty-sdk` / `twenty-server` / `twenty-front`
- [x] `npx nx lint:diff-with-main twenty-front` / `twenty-server`
- [x] `npx nx lint twenty-sdk` / `twenty-shared`
- [x] New unit tests: `define-command-menu-item.spec.ts`,
`define-page-layout-widget.spec.ts`
- [x] Existing manifest extract config tests still pass
- [ ] Codegen `npx nx run twenty-front:graphql:generate
--configuration=metadata` should be re-run after merge — the generated
`graphql.ts` was patched manually to include `commandMenuItems` on
`Application` and the `FindOneApplication` document.
- [ ] Smoke test: scaffold an app with `twenty add` for both new entity
types, run `twenty dev`, confirm the dev UI shows them in the sync list
and the settings page surfaces command menu items in the content tab.

## Summary
Restructures the apps Getting Started doc around the three things a
developer actually has to do, so the mental model is visible upfront and
discoverable when something goes wrong.
**Why this matters:** the previous flow read as one continuous list of
bash commands and prompts, which made it easy to miss that scaffolding,
running a Twenty server, and live-syncing changes are three separate
concepts. When the user hits a failure (Docker not running, server not
up, auth not authorized), they have no mental map for which step they're
in — so they end up retrying `yarn twenty dev`, which is the only
command they remember.
## What changes
**[getting-started.mdx](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/blob/docs/restructure-getting-started-three-phases/packages/twenty-docs/developers/extend/apps/getting-started.mdx):**
- New summary table at the top showing the three-phase arc:
| Phase | What you do | Tool | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| **1. Scaffold** | Generate the app's source code | `npx
create-twenty-app` | A TypeScript project on disk |
| **2. Run a server** | Start a Twenty server to sync into | Docker +
`yarn twenty server` | A running Twenty instance |
| **3. Sync** | Live-sync your code to the server | `yarn twenty dev` |
Your changes appear in the UI |
- Three top-level sections, one per phase, each ending with **"After
this phase: you have X"** so users can self-diagnose where they got
stuck.
- Phase 2 leads with the sentence that was missing before: *"Your app
needs a Twenty server to sync into. The server is a full Twenty instance
— UI, GraphQL API, PostgreSQL — running locally in Docker."* This is the
concept new users were missing.
- Removed the standalone *What are apps?* section — that's what the Core
Concepts page is for. Don't duplicate.
- Tightened wording throughout; same screenshots, same callouts, same
content depth.
**[core-concepts/apps.mdx](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/blob/docs/restructure-getting-started-three-phases/packages/twenty-docs/getting-started/core-concepts/apps.mdx):**
- Removed the install snippet (`npx create-twenty-app`, `cd`, `yarn
twenty dev`) — it duplicated Getting Started and the two examples used
different directory names.
- Updated the link card to reflect the new three-phase structure.
## Out of scope (mentioned for context, not done here)
- The "Docker is not running" message rewrite: separate PR
([#20280](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/20280)).
- A `yarn twenty start` one-command bootstrap that auto-starts the
server before `dev`. Worth doing — keeping it out of this docs PR.
- Auto-offering to start the server when `yarn twenty dev` finds no
running one. Same.
- An "agent path" doc (single-page, imperative, for AI assistants) —
separate effort.
## Test plan
- [x] `npx nx lint twenty-docs` passes (no new warnings)
- [x] All `<Note>`, `<Warning>`, `<Card>`, image refs preserved
- [ ] Render and click through both pages once merged and previewed

## Summary
`catalog-sync` is a server-side admin action — it asks the connected
Twenty server to refresh its marketplace catalog from npm. It doesn't
operate on the local app code (like `build`, `deploy`, `publish`), so
having it sit at the same root level as those commands is a navigability
problem. With 13 commands at the root today, every needless one makes
the help output harder to scan.
This PR moves it under `server`:
```
# New (preferred)
yarn twenty server catalog-sync
yarn twenty server catalog-sync --remote production
# Old (still works, prints deprecation warning)
yarn twenty catalog-sync
```
Also slightly broadens the `server` group description from "Manage a
local Twenty server instance" to "Manage a Twenty server (local instance
and server-side actions)" since `catalog-sync` can target a remote.
## Help output (after)
```
$ yarn twenty --help
Commands:
...
catalog-sync [options] [Deprecated] Moved under server. Use `yarn twenty server catalog-sync`.
...
server Manage a Twenty server (local instance and server-side actions)
$ yarn twenty server --help
Commands:
start [options] Start a local Twenty server
stop [options] Stop the local Twenty server
logs [options] Stream Twenty server logs
status [options] Show Twenty server status
reset [options] Delete all data and start fresh
upgrade [options] [version] Upgrade the twenty-app-dev Docker image
catalog-sync [options] Trigger a marketplace catalog sync on the server
```
## Backwards compatibility
The top-level `yarn twenty catalog-sync` still works and runs the same
logic. It prints a yellow warning suggesting the new path, then executes
normally. Plan is to remove it in a future release.
## Test plan
- [x] `npx nx typecheck twenty-sdk` passes
- [x] `npx nx lint twenty-sdk` passes
- [x] `yarn twenty --help` shows the deprecated entry
- [x] `yarn twenty server --help` lists the new subcommand
- [x] `yarn twenty catalog-sync --help` shows the deprecation message in
the description
- [ ] End-to-end: invoking either path triggers a sync against a running
server
## Possible follow-ups
This is one slice of the bigger CLI flattening discussed offline. Other
natural moves: group `build/deploy/publish/install/uninstall/typecheck`
under an `app` group, group `add/exec/logs` under `entity`. Doing those
in their own PRs to keep blast radius small.

## Summary
Replaces the bolted-on `isTool` + `toolInputSchema` fields on
`LogicFunctionManifest` with two distinct, opt-in triggers that align
with the existing `cron` / `databaseEvent` / `httpRoute` trigger
pattern:
- **`toolTriggerSettings`** — exposes the function as an AI tool (chat /
MCP / function calling). Uses standard JSON Schema (the format LLMs
natively understand).
- **`workflowActionTriggerSettings`** — exposes the function as a step
in the visual workflow builder. Uses Twenty's rich `InputSchema` so the
builder can render proper `FieldMetadataType`-aware editors, variable
pickers, labels, and an optional `outputSchema`.
A function can opt into none, one, or both. Each surface gets the schema
format appropriate for it.
### Why
`isTool: true` previously exposed the function as both an AI tool AND a
workflow node, with the same JSON Schema feeding both — but the workflow
builder really wants Twenty's `InputSchema` (with `CURRENCY`,
`RELATION`, `EMAILS`, etc.) and the AI surface really wants standard
JSON Schema. Today the workflow builder hacks around this by treating
JSON Schema as `InputSchema`, which silently breaks for any
non-primitive field type. Splitting the triggers fixes that and lets
each surface evolve independently.
### Migration
- **Fast** instance command adds the two new nullable columns.
- **Slow** instance command backfills `toolTriggerSettings` +
`workflowActionTriggerSettings` from `isTool=true` rows (preserving
today's both-surfaces behaviour) then drops the legacy columns.
### Stacked
Stacked on top of #20181. Merge that first, then this.
## Test plan
- [ ] CI green (oxlint, typecheck, jest, vitest)
- [ ] Run `--include-slow` upgrade against a workspace with existing
`isTool=true` logic functions; verify both new columns populated and old
columns dropped
- [ ] Verify AI chat sees migrated tool functions (Linear create-issue,
Exa search) and can call them with the JSON Schema
- [ ] Add an AI-tool function from the Settings UI (toggles
`toolTriggerSettings`) and verify it shows up in chat
- [ ] Add a workflow-action function from the Settings UI (toggles
`workflowActionTriggerSettings`) and verify it appears in the workflow
node picker
- [ ] In the workflow builder, edit a `LOGIC_FUNCTION` step and verify
input fields render (no more JSON-Schema-as-InputSchema hack)
- [ ] Try defining a function with no triggers in the SDK and verify
`defineLogicFunction` rejects it

# Introduction
Support multiple selected record ids for headless front components
### Changes
**Added:**
- `recordIds: string[]` field to `FrontComponentExecutionContext`
- `useRecordIds()` hook to get all selected record IDs
**Deprecated:**
- `recordId` field - use `recordIds` instead
- `useRecordId()` hook - use `useRecordIds()` instead
Backward compatibility is preserved
## Summary
App developers can now declare third-party OAuth integrations (GitHub,
Linear, Slack, etc.) in their manifest and the platform handles the full
authorize → callback → token-exchange → refresh → injection lifecycle.
The dev writes ~10 lines of config and reads tokens via
`useOAuth('linear')` inside any logic function.
```ts
// app/src/oauth-providers/linear.ts
export default defineOAuthProvider({
universalIdentifier: '...',
name: 'linear',
displayName: 'Linear',
authorizationEndpoint: 'https://linear.app/oauth/authorize',
tokenEndpoint: 'https://api.linear.app/oauth/token',
scopes: ['read', 'write'],
connectionMode: 'per-user',
clientIdVariable: 'LINEAR_CLIENT_ID',
clientSecretVariable: 'LINEAR_CLIENT_SECRET',
tokenRequestContentType: 'form-urlencoded',
});
// app/src/logic-functions/handlers/...
const { accessToken } = useOAuth('linear'); // throws OAuthNotConnectedError if missing
```
## Architecture
- **Storage**: extends the existing `connectedAccount` table — new
nullable `applicationOAuthProviderId` FK + new `app` value on the
`ConnectedAccountProvider` enum. Existing Google/Microsoft flows are
untouched.
- **OAuth flow**: a single `/apps/oauth/authorize` +
`/apps/oauth/callback` controller pair handles every app provider. State
travels in a JWT signed via the existing `JwtWrapperService` (new
`APP_OAUTH_STATE` token type).
- **Token exchange**: goes through
`SecureHttpClientService.createSsrfSafeFetch()` (so an installed app
can't point `tokenEndpoint` at internal hosts).
- **Refresh**: piggybacks on the existing
`ConnectedAccountRefreshTokensService` dispatch — Google/Microsoft
drivers untouched, new app driver lives engine-side under
`application-oauth-provider/refresh/`.
- **Injection**: the executor injects refreshed tokens as env vars
(`OAUTH_<NAME>_ACCESS_TOKEN`, `_HANDLE`, `_SCOPES`, `_CONNECTED`); the
SDK helpers `useOAuth` / `useOptionalOAuth` read them.
- **Frontend**: auto-rendered "OAuth Connections" section under each
app's settings tab (no custom front component needed). App-managed
connections are filtered out of `/settings/accounts` so the
email/calendar page stays focused.
- **Disconnect**: best-effort revoke against the manifest's
`revokeEndpoint` before deleting the row.
## Reference app
`packages/twenty-apps/internal/twenty-linear/` exercises the full
pipeline:
- `defineOAuthProvider` for Linear
- `POST /linear/create-issue` and `GET /linear/teams` HTTP-route logic
functions
- Vitest tests for the handlers
## Tests
- 14 server-side Jest tests: token-exchange util (form-urlencoded vs
JSON, PKCE, error paths), flow service (authorize URL shape, state
binding, ConnectedAccount upsert on first/reconnect, per-workspace mode,
invalid state)
- 8 app-level Vitest tests: handler error paths, GraphQL request shape,
Linear error propagation
- All 4 packages clean: `npx nx lint:diff-with-main` and `npx tsc
--noEmit`
## Test plan
- [ ] Apply migration on a dev DB: `npx nx run
twenty-server:database:migrate:prod`
- [ ] Regenerate frontend types: `npx nx run
twenty-front:graphql:generate --configuration=metadata`
- [ ] Create a Linear OAuth app at
https://linear.app/settings/api/applications/new with redirect URI
`<SERVER_URL>/apps/oauth/callback`
- [ ] Deploy + install `twenty-linear` on a workspace, paste the Linear
client id/secret into the app's variables
- [ ] Click "Connect Linear" in the app's settings tab → complete OAuth
→ verify `connectedAccount` row created with `provider = 'app'`
- [ ] Trigger `POST /linear/create-issue` with a valid teamId → verify
issue lands in Linear
- [ ] Disconnect → verify the row is deleted and (if Linear's revoke
endpoint is configured in the manifest) the revoke call fires
- [ ] Verify `/settings/accounts` does NOT show the Linear connection —
it appears only under the Linear app's settings tab
## Out of scope (deliberately)
- **Cron + per-user providers**: a cron-triggered function with a
per-user OAuth provider currently returns `CONNECTED=false` (no user
context). The follow-up design is `useOAuthForUser(name,
userWorkspaceId)` paired with a `POST /apps/oauth/connection-token`
endpoint, deferred to keep this PR focused.
- **Token encryption at rest**: tokens stored as plain `varchar`
matching the existing Google/Microsoft pattern. Worth a separate
cross-cutting PR.
- **Manifest endpoint pinning**: a malicious app upgrade could change
`tokenEndpoint` silently. Same trust model as logic-function source code
(which already runs arbitrary server-side); worth tightening across the
whole upgrade pipeline rather than just OAuth.
- **CLI helpers** (`twenty oauth show-callback-url`, `twenty oauth
connect`): manual setup for v1.

The command pulls the image, compares it against the one the container

changed. Your data volumes are preserved — only the container is
replaced.
## Summary
Follow-up to #20061, which added `rawBody?: string` to
`LogicFunctionEvent` / `RoutePayload` so logic functions can verify
HMAC-style webhook signatures (GitHub's `X-Hub-Signature-256`, Stripe,
…) against the exact bytes that were received.
That PR did not update the public SDK docs, so the new field is
effectively invisible to developers consuming `RoutePayload` from
`twenty-sdk`. This PR adds a single row to the `RoutePayload` structure
table in `logic-functions.mdx` so the field is discoverable.
Addresses the review feedback on
https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/20061#discussion_r3147065014.
## Summary
Introduces `definePageLayoutTab` so apps can attach a single tab (with
optional widgets) to an **existing** `pageLayout` referenced by
`pageLayoutUniversalIdentifier`. The parent layout can be standard, from
the same app, or from another app — mirroring how `defineField`
references an object via `objectUniversalIdentifier`.
This complements `definePageLayout`: use `definePageLayout` when you own
the entire layout, use `definePageLayoutTab` when you only want to add
to one.
```ts
import { definePageLayoutTab, PageLayoutTabLayoutMode } from 'twenty-sdk/define';
export default definePageLayoutTab({
universalIdentifier: 'b1b2b3b4-b5b6-4000-8000-000000000001',
pageLayoutUniversalIdentifier: 'STANDARD-OR-OTHER-APP-PAGE-LAYOUT-UUID',
title: 'Hello World',
position: 1000,
icon: 'IconWorld',
layoutMode: PageLayoutTabLayoutMode.CANVAS,
widgets: [/* ... */],
});
```
## Changes
- **twenty-shared**: new top-level `pageLayoutTabs:
PageLayoutTabManifest[]` on `Manifest`, optional
`pageLayoutUniversalIdentifier` on `PageLayoutTabManifest`, new
`SyncableEntity.PageLayoutTab`.
- **twenty-sdk**:
- new `definePageLayoutTab` + `PageLayoutTabConfig` exports;
- manifest extraction wiring (`TargetFunction.DefinePageLayoutTab`,
`ManifestEntityKey.PageLayoutTabs`);
- dev-mode label/state for the new entity;
- CLI scaffold (`getPageLayoutTabBaseFile`) + unit tests for `npx
twenty-cli add`.
- **twenty-server**: convert top-level `pageLayoutTabs` (and their
widgets) into universal flat entities in
`computeApplicationManifestAllUniversalFlatEntityMaps`. Cross-app FK
validation on `pageLayoutUniversalIdentifier` is already handled by the
existing `FlatPageLayoutTab` validator.
- **docs**: new `definePageLayoutTab` accordion in `apps/layout.mdx`
with usage example and guidance vs `definePageLayout`.
- **CI / rich-app fixture**: `extra-tab.page-layout-tab.ts` exercises
the new flow with a front-component widget; `expected-manifest.ts` and
`manifest.tests.ts` updated.
## Summary
- Remove the \"Apps are currently in alpha\" warning from 8 pages under
`developers/extend/apps/` (getting-started, architecture/building,
data-model, layout, logic-functions, front-components, cli-and-testing,
publishing).
- Keep the warning on the Skills & Agents page only, and reword it to
scope it to that feature: \"Skills and agents are currently in alpha.
The feature works but is still evolving.\"
## Test plan
- [ ] Preview docs build and confirm the warning banner no longer
appears on the 8 pages above.
- [ ] Confirm the warning still renders on the Skills & Agents page with
the updated wording.

## Summary
Following the recent move of `defineXXX` exports (e.g.
`defineLogicFunction`, `defineObject`, `defineFrontComponent`, …) from
the `twenty-sdk` root entry to the `twenty-sdk/define` subpath, this PR
aligns the documentation and the marketing site so users see the correct
import paths.
- `packages/twenty-docs/developers/extend/apps/building.mdx`: every code
snippet now imports `defineXXX` and related types/enums (`FieldType`,
`RelationType`, `OnDeleteAction`,
`STANDARD_OBJECT_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIERS`, `PermissionFlag`, `ViewKey`,
`NavigationMenuItemType`, `PageLayoutTabLayoutMode`,
`getPublicAssetUrl`, `DatabaseEventPayload`, `RoutePayload`,
`InstallPayload`, …) from `twenty-sdk/define`. Mixed imports were split
so that hooks and host-API helpers (`useRecordId`, `useUserId`,
`useFrontComponentId`, `enqueueSnackbar`, `closeSidePanel`, `pageType`,
`numberOfSelectedRecords`, `objectPermissions`, `everyEquals`,
`isDefined`) come from `twenty-sdk/front-component`.
-
`packages/twenty-website-new/.../DraggableTerminal/TerminalEditor/editorData.ts`:
the 29 demo source strings shown in the homepage's draggable terminal
now import from `twenty-sdk/define`.
Example apps under `packages/twenty-apps/{examples,internal,fixtures}`
were already using the right subpaths, so no code changes were needed
there.
Translations under `packages/twenty-docs/l/` are intentionally left
untouched — they will be refreshed via Crowdin from the English source.
## Test plan
- [ ] Skim the rendered `building.mdx` on Mintlify preview to confirm
code snippets look right.
- [ ] Visual check on the website's draggable terminal demo.

## Summary
- When `STORAGE_S3_PRESIGNED_URL_BASE` is configured, the file
controller returns a **302 redirect** to a presigned S3 URL instead of
proxying every byte through the server. This eliminates server bandwidth
and CPU overhead for S3-backed deployments.
- For local storage or S3 without a public endpoint, behavior is
unchanged (stream + pipe with security headers).
- Added `getPresignedUrl` to the `StorageDriver` interface (required
method returning `string | null`), with implementations in S3Driver
(uses a separate presign client with the public endpoint), LocalDriver
(returns `null`), and ValidatedStorageDriver (path traversal protection
+ delegation).
- Added a unified `getFileResponseById` method in `FileService` that
performs a single DB lookup and returns either a redirect URL or a
stream, avoiding double lookups.
- Extracted `getContentDisposition` from the header util so both the
proxy path and presigned URL path share the same inline/attachment
allowlist.
- Added MinIO service to `docker-compose.dev.yml` (optional `s3`
profile) for local S3 testing.
- Documented S3 presigned URL setup, CORS, and `nosniff` requirements in
the self-hosting docs.
## Test plan
- [x] All 63 unit tests pass across 5 test suites (util, S3 driver,
validated driver, file storage service, controller)
- [x] `npx nx typecheck twenty-server` passes

configure S3 env vars, verify `curl -I` returns 302 with `Location`
header pointing to MinIO
- [ ] Verify local storage (no `STORAGE_S3_PRESIGNED_URL_BASE`) still
streams files with 200 + security headers
- [ ] Verify public assets endpoint still proxies (no redirect)

## 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.

## Summary
This PR fixes several small documentation issues in the contributor and
setup guides:
- fixes broken docs links in the root README
- corrects multiple typos and capitalization issues in contributor docs
- fixes malformed Markdown for the Redis command in local setup
- improves wording in the Docker Compose self-hosting guide
## Changes
- updated README installation links to the current docs routes
- changed `Open-source` to `open-source`
- fixed `specially` -> `especially` in the frontend style guide
- normalized `MacOS` -> `macOS`, `powershell` -> `PowerShell`, and
`Postgresql` -> `PostgreSQL`
- replaced the invalid `localhost:5432` Markdown link with inline code
- fixed the malformed fenced code block for `brew services start redis`
- cleaned up Redis naming/capitalization and a few grammar issues in the
setup docs
- improved the warning and environment-variable wording in the Docker
Compose guide
## Testing
- not run; docs-only changes

## Summary
For security reasons, the code interpreter and logic function drivers
now default based on `NODE_ENV`:
- **Production** (`NODE_ENV=production` or unset): Default to
**Disabled**
- **Development** (`NODE_ENV=development`): Default to **LOCAL** for
convenience
This ensures self-hosted production deployments don't accidentally run
user-provided code without explicit configuration.
## Changes
### Config (`config-variables.ts`)
- `CODE_INTERPRETER_TYPE`: Disabled in prod, LOCAL in dev
- `LOGIC_FUNCTION_TYPE`: Disabled in prod, LOCAL in dev
### Documentation (`setup.mdx`)
- Added **Security Defaults** section explaining NODE_ENV-based behavior
- Fixed variable names: `SERVERLESS_TYPE` → `LOGIC_FUNCTION_TYPE`,
`SERVERLESS_LAMBDA_*` → `LOGIC_FUNCTION_LAMBDA_*`
- Added **Code Interpreter** section with available drivers (Disabled,
Local, E2B)
### Environment files
- `.env.example`: Updated to `LOGIC_FUNCTION_TYPE` with comments
- `.env.test`: Added `LOGIC_FUNCTION_TYPE=LOCAL` for logic function
integration tests

## Summary
- Restructures the developer Extend documentation: moves API and
Webhooks to top-level pages, creates dedicated Apps section with Getting
Started, Building, and Publishing pages
- Updates navigation structure (`docs.json`, `base-structure.json`,
`navigation.template.json`)
- Updates translated docs for all locales and LLMS.md references across
app packages
## Test plan
- [ ] Run `mintlify dev` locally and verify navigation structure
- [ ] Check that all links in the Extend section work correctly
- [ ] Verify translated pages render properly

# Intoduction
Closes https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/2289
In this PR all the clients becomes available under `twenty-sdk/clients`,
this is a breaking change but generated was too vague and thats still
the now or never best timing to do so
## CoreClient
The core client is now shipped with a default stub empty class for both
the schema and the client
Allowing its import, will still raises typescript errors when consumed
as generated but not generated
## MetadataClient
The metadata client is workspace agnostic, it's now generated and
commited in the repo. added a ci that prevents any schema desync due to
twenty-server additions
Same behavior than for the twenty-front generated graphql schema
## Summary
Removes `vite-plugin-checker` and all references to
`VITE_DISABLE_TYPESCRIPT_CHECKER` / `VITE_DISABLE_ESLINT_CHECKER`.
These background checks are no longer needed because our dev experience
now relies on **independent** linters and type-checkers:
- `npx nx lint:diff-with-main twenty-front` for ESLint
- `npx nx typecheck twenty-front` for TypeScript
Running these as separate processes (rather than inside Vite) is faster,
gives cleaner output, and avoids the significant memory overhead that
`vite-plugin-checker` introduces during `vite dev` and `vite build`. The
old env vars to disable them are removed from `vite.config.ts`,
`package.json` scripts, `nx.json`, `.env.example`, and all translated
docs.
