## Summary
- Bumps `twenty-sdk` from `2.4.2` to `2.5.0`.
- Bumps `twenty-client-sdk` from `2.4.2` to `2.5.0`.
- Bumps `create-twenty-app` from `2.4.2` to `2.5.0`.
## Simplify `create-twenty-app` for zero-interaction use
Makes `npx create-twenty-app@latest my-app` a fully non-interactive,
single-command experience suitable for automated environments (Codex,
Claude plugins).
### Changes
- **Remove all interactive prompts** — app name, display name,
description, and scaffold confirmation are now derived from CLI args
with sensible defaults. `inquirer` dependency removed
entirely.
- **Replace OAuth with API key auth** — use the seeded dev API key
(`DEV_API_KEY`) to authenticate against the Docker instance as
`tim@apple.dev`, eliminating the browser-based OAuth
flow.
- **Docker-first with early validation** — check Docker is installed
before scaffolding; if missing, print the install URL and exit. Detect
alternative runtimes (Podman, nerdctl).
- **Parallel image pull** — `docker pull` runs in the background during
scaffold + dependency install, saving 10-30s on typical runs.
- **Always pull latest image** — ensures the dev server is up-to-date on
every run.
- **Stop detecting port 3000** — only check port 2020 (Docker instance).
- **Update CLI flags** — remove `--skip-local-instance` and `--yes`; add
`--skip-docker`.
- **Update CI workflows and docs** — align e2e workflows, package
README, and template README/cd.yml with the new flow.
##
The command pulls the image, compares it against the one the container
was created from, and only recreates the container if the image actually
changed. Your data volumes are preserved — only the container is
replaced.

## Summary
Logic-function bundles produced by the SDK CLI were ~1.2 MB each (source
maps ~3.1 MB) because esbuild was inlining `twenty-sdk/define` and its
transitive dependencies (zod + locales, twenty-shared, etc.). Those
`define*` factories are pure build-time metadata used only by the
manifest extractor — the Lambda runtime only ever invokes
`default.config.handler`, so the factories are dead weight at runtime.
This PR shrinks the bundles to ~9.5 KB each (~99% reduction) without
changing runtime behaviour.
## What changes
- **Stub `twenty-sdk/define` at user-app build time.** New esbuild
plugin
(`packages/twenty-sdk/src/cli/utilities/build/common/plugins/stub-twenty-sdk-define.plugin.ts`)
intercepts every import of `twenty-sdk/define` during user-app builds
and replaces it with a tiny virtual module:
- Factory functions (`defineLogicFunction`,
`definePostInstallLogicFunction`, …) become `(config) => ({ success:
true, config, errors: [] })`.
- Enums and helpers become `Proxy`-based no-ops.
- Wired into both the one-shot build (`build-application.ts`) and the
watcher (`esbuild-watcher.ts`), for logic functions and front
components.
- **New runtime barrel `twenty-sdk/logic-function`.** Re-exports only
the types logic-function authors need (`InstallPayload`, `RoutePayload`,
`CronPayload`, `DatabaseEventPayload`, `LogicFunctionConfig`,
`InputJsonSchema`, …). Compiled `.mjs` is 36 bytes. Wired into Vite,
Rollup `.d.ts` bundling, `package.json#exports`, and `typesVersions`.
- **Lint enforcement.** Added an oxlint `no-restricted-imports` rule
that forbids `twenty-shared` / `twenty-shared/*` imports from
`**/*.logic-function.ts` and `**/logic-functions/**/*.ts`, with a help
message pointing at the new barrel. Applied to the `create-twenty-app`
template and to `github-connector`, `hello-world`, `postcard`.
- **Migrated existing sources.** All logic-function files across
`community/{github-connector, apollo-enrich}`, `examples/{hello-world,
postcard}`, and `internal/{twenty-for-twenty, self-hosting, exa}` now
import types from `twenty-sdk/logic-function` instead of
`twenty-sdk/define` or `twenty-shared/*`. Renamed leftover
`InstallLogicFunctionPayload` references to `InstallPayload`.
## Why this is safe
- `define*` exports from `twenty-sdk/define` are metadata factories
whose call expressions are statically inspected by the manifest
extractor (`manifest-extract-config.ts`). They're never evaluated at
runtime — the Lambda executor only walks `default.config.handler`
(`logic-function-drivers/constants/executor/index.mjs`).
- The stub keeps the same call shape (`{ success, config, errors }`), so
any logic-function module that re-exports
`defineX(config).config.handler` still resolves to the user's handler at
runtime.
- Front-component bundles are unaffected by the stub because the
pre-existing JSX transform plugin
(`jsx-transform-to-remote-dom-worker-format-plugin.ts`) unwraps
`defineFrontComponent(...)` earlier in the pipeline. That's intentional
— front-component bloat is React/Preact, not in scope here.
## Measurements (github-connector)
| Asset | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| `*.logic-function.mjs` | ~1.2 MB | ~9.5 KB |
| `*.logic-function.mjs.map` | ~3.1 MB | ~22 KB |
**PR 1 of 2.** Follow-up PR ships the Exa app, sets it as a default
pre-installed app, and removes the current `WebSearchTool` /
`WebSearchService` / `ExaDriver`. This PR adds the plumbing; no
user-visible change yet.
## Summary
- Server admins can declare a list of npm app packages to auto-install
on every new workspace and backfill onto existing workspaces via CLI.
- Server-level secrets (like Exa's API key) live on the
`ApplicationRegistration` (one row per server, encrypted) and are
injected into logic function execution env at runtime. No more
per-workspace storage of global secrets.
- A generic `POST /app/billing/charge` endpoint lets app logic functions
emit workspace usage events for metered features. Exa uses it in PR 2;
future apps (call recorder, etc.) reuse it.
- `LogicFunctionToolProvider` tool name prefix changes `logic_function_`
→ `app_`. Shorter, accurate (they come from installed apps).
## What's in this PR
**Logic function executor — server-level variables**
- `LogicFunctionExecutorService.getExecutionEnvVariables` now resolves
env vars in the order: hardcoded defaults →
`ApplicationRegistrationVariable[]` (server-level) →
`ApplicationVariable[]` (workspace-level override). The manifest
`serverVariables` schema has existed; this closes the loop.
**Config**
- `PRE_INSTALLED_APPS` — comma-separated list of npm packages. Default:
empty.
**\`PreInstalledAppsService\`** (new module)
- \`onApplicationBootstrap()\` — fetches each package's manifest from
the app registry CDN, upserts an \`ApplicationRegistration\`, and seeds
declared \`serverVariables\` from matching env vars (e.g.
\`EXA_API_KEY\` env → encrypted registration variable).
- \`installOnWorkspace(workspaceId)\` — installs all pre-installed apps
on a single workspace. Tolerates per-app failures.
**Auto-install on new workspace activation**
- \`WorkspaceService.prefillCreatedWorkspaceRecords\` invokes
\`installOnWorkspace\` after prefilling standard records. Non-blocking
on failure.
**Backfill CLI command**
- \`install-pre-installed-apps\` — iterates active and suspended
workspaces, installs pre-installed apps that aren't yet installed.
Idempotent. Run after changing \`PRE_INSTALLED_APPS\`.
**App billing endpoint**
- \`POST /app/billing/charge\`. Authenticated via \`APPLICATION_ACCESS\`
token (already injected into logic function execution env as
\`DEFAULT_APP_ACCESS_TOKEN\`). Body: \`{ creditsUsedMicro, quantity,
unit, operationType, resourceContext? }\`. Emits \`USAGE_RECORDED\` with
\`applicationId\` as \`resourceId\`. Generic — reusable by any app.
**Tool name prefix**
- \`LogicFunctionToolProvider.buildLogicFunctionToolName\` now produces
\`app_<name>\` instead of \`logic_function_<name>\`. Only affects tools
sourced from logic functions; other tool providers unchanged.
## Stats
- 16 files, +501 / −2
- 7 new files (1 command, 1 service × 2, 1 controller, 1 DTO, 2 modules)
- Typecheck: 7 pre-existing errors, zero new
- Prettier clean
## Behavior deltas
- **\`PRE_INSTALLED_APPS\` default = empty**: existing servers see no
change on merge.
- **\`ApplicationRegistrationVariable\` is now read by the executor**:
apps that were using manifest \`serverVariables\` but expecting them to
be ignored by the executor will now see them injected. No apps ship with
\`isTool: true\` logic functions today, so this is latent — first
consumer is Exa in PR 2.
- **Tool prefix**: currently no logic-function tools are named
\`logic_function_*\` in any production flow. The prefix change affects
only future tools emitted by \`LogicFunctionToolProvider\`.
## Risks
- **CDN unavailability at startup**: if the app registry CDN is down,
\`ensureRegistrationsExist\` logs warnings but doesn't block server
start. Installation on new workspaces during this window will find no
registrations and log a non-blocking error. Backfill command can retry
after CDN recovers.
- **Cold-start overhead**: \`ensureRegistrationsExist\` is called once
per process on bootstrap. Current configurable default is empty, so zero
overhead. When an admin sets \`PRE_INSTALLED_APPS\`, they accept one
HTTP call per package at boot.
- **Server-level variables flow**:
\`ApplicationRegistrationVariable.encryptedValue\` is shared by all
workspaces of a server. Appropriate for a single-tenant Exa key. Not
appropriate for per-tenant keys — those go in workspace-level
\`ApplicationVariable\` and override.
## Test plan
- [ ] \`npx nx typecheck twenty-server\` passes (verified: 7
pre-existing unrelated errors, zero new)
- [ ] Set \`PRE_INSTALLED_APPS=@twenty-apps/hello-world\` (or any real
npm-published app), \`HELLO_WORLD_API_KEY=xxx\`, restart server:
\`ApplicationRegistration\` row is upserted,
\`ApplicationRegistrationVariable\` for HELLO_WORLD_API_KEY is populated
(encrypted).
- [ ] Create a new workspace: the app is auto-installed,
\`ApplicationEntity\` row created, \`LogicFunctionEntity\` rows created.
- [ ] Existing workspace: run \`yarn nx run twenty-server:command
install-pre-installed-apps\`: apps install across all workspaces,
idempotent on re-run.
- [ ] Trigger a logic function that reads
\`process.env.HELLO_WORLD_API_KEY\`: value resolves from the
server-level \`ApplicationRegistrationVariable\`.
- [ ] Log a charge from the handler: \`POST /app/billing/charge\` with
\`Authorization: Bearer \$DEFAULT_APP_ACCESS_TOKEN\` body
\`{creditsUsedMicro: 1000, quantity: 1, unit: "INVOCATION",
operationType: "WEB_SEARCH"}\` → returns \`{success: true}\`,
\`USAGE_RECORDED\` event emitted with correct
\`resourceId=applicationId\`.
- [ ] Tool name generated by \`LogicFunctionToolProvider\` starts with
\`app_\`.
## What's NOT in this PR (PR 2 scope)
- The Exa app itself (\`packages/twenty-apps/...\` directory)
- Removing \`WebSearchTool\`, \`WebSearchService\`, \`ExaDriver\`,
\`web-search\` module
- Removing \`WEB_SEARCH_DRIVER\` config var
- Removing the current \`exa_web_search\` entry in
\`ActionToolProvider\`
- Chat preload list updated to \`app_exa_web_search\`
- Frontend \`getToolDisplayMessage\` branch for \`app_exa_web_search\`
- Setting \`PRE_INSTALLED_APPS\` default to include \`@twenty-apps/exa\`

## Summary
Logic-function bundles produced by the twenty-sdk CLI were ~1.18 MB even
for a one-line handler. Root cause: the SDK shipped as a single bundled
barrel (`twenty-sdk` → `dist/index.mjs`) that co-mingled server-side
definition factories with the front-component runtime, validation (zod),
and React. With no `\"sideEffects\"` declaration on the SDK package,
esbuild had to assume every module-level statement could have side
effects and refused to drop unused code.
This PR restructures the SDK so consumers' bundlers can tree-shake at
the leaf level:
- **Reorganized SDK source.** All server-side definition factories now
live under `src/sdk/define/` (agents, application, fields,
logic-functions, objects, page-layouts, roles, skills, views,
navigation-menu-items, etc.). All front-component runtime
(components, hooks, host APIs, command primitives) lives under
`src/sdk/front-component/`. The legacy bare `src/sdk/index.ts` is
removed; the bare `twenty-sdk` entry no longer exists.
- **Split the build configs by purpose / runtime env.** Replaced
`vite.config.sdk.ts` with two purpose-specific configs:
- `vite.config.define.ts` — node target, externals from package
`dependencies`, emits to `dist/define/**`
- `vite.config.front-component.ts` — browser/React target, emits to
`dist/front-component/**`
Both use `preserveModules: true` so each leaf ships as its own `.mjs`.
- **\`\"sideEffects\": false\`** on `twenty-sdk` so esbuild can drop
unreferenced re-exports.
- **\`package.json\` exports + \`typesVersions\`** updated: dropped the
bare \`.\` entry, added \`./front-component\`, and pointed \`./define\`
at the new per-module dist layout.
- **Migrated every internal/example/community app** to the new subpath
imports (`twenty-sdk/define`, `twenty-sdk/front-component`,
`twenty-sdk/ui`).
- **Added \`bundle-investigation\` internal app** that reproduces the
bundle bloat and demonstrates the fix.
- Cleaned up dead \`twenty-sdk/dist/sdk/...\` references in the
front-component story builder, the call-recording app, and the SDK
tsconfig.
## Bundle size impact
Measured with esbuild using the same options as the SDK CLI
(\`packages/twenty-apps/internal/bundle-investigation\`):
| Variant | Imports | Before | After |
| ----------------------- |
------------------------------------------------------- | ---------- |
--------- |
| \`01-bare\` | \`defineLogicFunction\` from \`twenty-sdk/define\` |
1177 KB | **1.6 KB** |
| \`02-with-sdk-client\` | + \`CoreApiClient\` from
\`twenty-client-sdk/core\` | 1177 KB | **1.9 KB** |
| \`03-fetch-issues\` | + GitHub GraphQL fetch + JWT signing + 2
mutations | 1181 KB | **5.8 KB** |
| \`05-via-define-subpath\` | same as \`01\`, via the public subpath |
1177 KB | **1.7 KB** |
That's a ~735× reduction on the bare baseline. Knock-on benefits for
Lambda warm + cold starts, S3 upload size, and \`/tmp\` disk usage in
warm containers.

## Summary
- Bump `twenty-sdk` from `1.22.0-canary.6` to `1.22.0`
- Bump `twenty-client-sdk` from `1.22.0-canary.6` to `1.22.0`
- Bump `create-twenty-app` from `1.22.0-canary.6` to `1.22.0`
## Summary
- Follows up on #19610 which exported view/page-layout types but missed
field settings types
- Adds re-exports for `DateDisplayFormat`, `NumberDataType`, and
`FieldMetadataSettingsOnClickAction` from the SDK public API
- These enums are referenced in the return type of `defineObject` (via
field settings types like `FieldMetadataSettingsDate`,
`FieldMetadataSettingsNumber`, `FieldMetadataSettingsMultiItem`) but
were not publicly exported
- This causes TS4082 ("private name") errors for SDK consumers that have
`declaration: true` in their tsconfig, specifically when using
`defineObject` with fields that have settings (e.g. SELECT, DATE, NUMBER
fields)
## Summary
- Fixes TS4082 errors for SDK consumers with `declaration: true` in
their tsconfig
- The `define*` functions (e.g. `defineView`, `definePageLayout`,
`defineLogicFunction`) return `ValidationResult<T>` where `T` references
types from `twenty-shared` that were not re-exported from the SDK's
public barrel
- TypeScript cannot generate `.d.ts` files when the return type
references "private names" — types that exist in the package but aren't
publicly exported
### Added re-exports
**Enums** (used in `ViewManifest`, `HttpRouteTriggerSettings`):
- `ViewType`, `ViewFilterOperand`, `ViewFilterGroupLogicalOperator`,
`ViewOpenRecordIn`, `ViewVisibility`
- `HTTPMethod`
**Types** (used in `PageLayoutWidgetManifest`, `LogicFunctionConfig`):
- `GridPosition`, `PageLayoutWidgetConditionalDisplay`
- `InputJsonSchema`
## Summary
- `twenty-shared` is private and never published to npm, so SDK
consumers couldn't resolve type imports like `from
'twenty-shared/types'` in the generated `.d.ts` files
- Replace `vite.config.sdk.ts` with `rollup-plugin-dts` which compiles
`src/sdk/index.ts` directly into a self-contained `dist/sdk/index.d.ts`
with all `twenty-shared` types inlined
- The JS output from `vite.config.sdk.ts` (`dist/sdk/*.js`) was unused —
the main export already maps to `dist/index.mjs` from the node Vite
config
## Changes
- **Deleted** `vite.config.sdk.ts` — its preserved-module JS output
wasn't referenced by any `package.json` export
- **Added** `rollup.config.dts.mjs` — uses `rollup-plugin-dts` to
compile SDK types from source with `twenty-shared` inlined (~850ms)
- **Updated** `project.json` — build/dev/build:sdk targets now use
rollup instead of the removed vite config
- **Updated** `tsconfig.json` — removed `vite.config.sdk.ts` from
include
## Test plan
- [ ] Run `npx nx build twenty-sdk` and verify `dist/sdk/index.d.ts`
contains no `twenty-shared` references
- [ ] Verify `dist/index.mjs` and `dist/index.cjs` are still produced
correctly
- [ ] Verify CLI (`dist/cli.cjs`) still works
- [ ] Verify `npx nx build:sdk twenty-sdk` works standalone

## Summary
- Bump `twenty-sdk`, `twenty-client-sdk`, and `create-twenty-app` from
`1.22.0-canary.2` to `1.22.0-canary.3` for publishing.
## Test plan
- Version-only change, no code modifications.
Made with [Cursor](https://cursor.com)
## Summary
- **Fix `createApplicationRegistration` flow**: The server's
`createApplicationRegistration` mutation returns a `clientSecret`, not
`accessToken`/`refreshToken` directly. The SDK now correctly requests
`clientSecret` and immediately performs an OAuth `client_credentials`
exchange to obtain `appAccessToken` and `appRefreshToken`, then stores
them in config.
- **New `exchangeCredentialsForTokens` helper**: Shared by both `dev`
and `dev --once` flows. Takes `clientId` + `clientSecret`, calls
`/oauth/token` with `client_credentials` grant, and persists the
resulting tokens.
- **Bump `twenty-sdk`, `twenty-client-sdk`, `create-twenty-app` to
`1.22.0-canary.2`**
## Context
The `1.22.0-canary.1` SDK release expected
`createApplicationRegistration` to return `accessToken`/`refreshToken`
directly, but the `v1.22.0` server returns `clientSecret`. This caused
`yarn twenty dev` and `yarn twenty dev --once` to fail with "No
registration found" errors.
## Summary
- Bumps `twenty-sdk`, `twenty-client-sdk`, and `create-twenty-app`
package versions from `0.9.0` to `1.22.0-canary.1` for the 1.22 canary
release.
## Test plan
- [ ] Verify packages build successfully (`npx nx build twenty-sdk`,
`npx nx build twenty-client-sdk`, `npx nx build create-twenty-app`)
- [ ] Verify `create-twenty-app` scaffolds new apps with the correct SDK
version
Made with [Cursor](https://cursor.com)
## Summary
- **Make app-synced objects searchable**: `isSearchable` was hardcoded
to `false` and the `searchVector` field was missing the `GENERATED
ALWAYS AS (...)` expression, causing all records to have a `NULL` search
vector and be excluded from search results. Fixed by defaulting
`isSearchable` to `true` (configurable via the object manifest),
computing the `asExpression` from the label identifier field, and
allowing the update-field-action-handler to handle the `null` → defined
`asExpression` transition.
- **Make `isSearchable` updatable on an object**: The property had
`toCompare: false` in the entity properties configuration, so updates
via the API were silently ignored and never persisted. Fixed by setting
`toCompare: true`.

Avoid re-exporting twenty-ui icons bundle that are massive ~4MB
As discussed with @charlesBochet the problem should rather be treated at
twenty-ui level at some point, that's quite a quick workaround in order
to avoid overloading the twenty-sdk build size
When time comes, where twenty-ui is mature enough to get published we
will work on its bundle size
## Summary
### Externalize `twenty-client-sdk` from `twenty-sdk`
Previously, `twenty-client-sdk` was listed as a `devDependency` of
`twenty-sdk`, which caused Vite to bundle it inline into the dist
output. This meant end-user apps had two copies of `twenty-client-sdk`:
one hidden inside `twenty-sdk`'s bundle, and one installed explicitly in
their `node_modules`. These copies could drift apart since they weren't
guaranteed to be the same version.
**Change:** Moved `twenty-client-sdk` from `devDependencies` to
`dependencies` in `twenty-sdk/package.json`. Vite's `external` function
now recognizes it and keeps it as an external `require`/`import` in the
dist output. End users get a single deduplicated copy resolved by their
package manager.
### Externalize `twenty-sdk` from `create-twenty-app`
Similarly, `create-twenty-app` had `twenty-sdk` as a `devDependency`
(bundled inline). After refactoring `create-twenty-app` to
programmatically import operations from `twenty-sdk` (instead of
shelling out via `execSync`), it became a proper runtime dependency.
**Change:** Moved `twenty-sdk` from `devDependencies` to `dependencies`
in `create-twenty-app/package.json`.
### Switch E2E CI to `yarn npm publish`
The `workspace:*` protocol in `dependencies` is a Yarn-specific feature.
`npm publish` publishes it as-is (which breaks for consumers), while
`yarn npm publish` automatically replaces `workspace:*` with the
resolved version at publish time (e.g., `workspace:*` becomes `=1.2.3`).
**Change:** Replaced `npm publish` with `yarn npm publish` in
`.github/workflows/ci-create-app-e2e.yaml`.
### Replace `execSync` with programmatic SDK calls in
`create-twenty-app`
`create-twenty-app` was shelling out to `yarn twenty remote add` and
`yarn twenty server start` via `execSync`, which assumed the `twenty`
binary was already installed in the scaffolded app. This was fragile and
created an implicit circular dependency.
**Changes:**
- Replaced `execSync('yarn twenty remote add ...')` with a direct call
to `authLoginOAuth()` from `twenty-sdk/cli`
- Replaced `execSync('yarn twenty server start')` with a direct call to
`serverStart()` from `twenty-sdk/cli`
- Deleted the duplicated `setup-local-instance.ts` from
`create-twenty-app`
### Centralize `serverStart` as a dedicated operation
The Docker server start logic was previously inline in the `server
start` CLI command handler (`server.ts`), and `setup-local-instance.ts`
was shelling out to `yarn twenty server start` to invoke it -- meaning
`twenty-sdk` was calling itself via a child process.
**Changes:**
- Extracted the Docker container management logic into a new
`serverStart` operation (`cli/operations/server-start.ts`)
- Merged the detect-or-start flow from `setup-local-instance.ts` into
`serverStart` (detect across multiple ports, start Docker if needed,
poll for health)
- Deleted `setup-local-instance.ts` from `twenty-sdk`
- Added `onProgress` callback (consistent with other operations like
`appBuild`) instead of direct `console.log` calls
- Both the `server start` CLI command and `create-twenty-app` now call
`serverStart()` programmatically

## 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
- Upgrade `ink` from 5.1.1 to 6.8.0 in twenty-sdk (React 19 required, no
API breaking changes)
- Upgrade `react`/`react-dom` from 18 to 19 and
`@types/react`/`@types/react-dom` to 19 in twenty-sdk
- Enable `incrementalRendering` — only redraws changed lines instead of
full output, reducing flickering
- Pause the animation timer when the pipeline is not actively building
or syncing, so Ink stops re-rendering and the terminal becomes
scrollable (fixes inability to scroll up to read errors)
- Remove `AnimationProvider` context — derive animation frames from
`Date.now()` directly in `useStatusIcon`
- Export `NavigationMenuItemType` from `twenty-sdk` (re-exported from
`twenty-shared/types`)
- Add dedicated NavigationMenuItem integration tests to postcard-app
(unique positions, unique identifiers, valid object references)
## Test plan
- [ ] Run `twenty dev` and verify the TUI renders normally during
build/sync
- [ ] Trigger an error and verify the terminal output freezes and
becomes scrollable
- [ ] Verify that after fixing the error, the TUI resumes animating on
next build cycle
- [ ] Verify `import { NavigationMenuItemType } from "twenty-sdk"` works
- [ ] Run postcard-app integration tests and verify new
NavigationMenuItem tests pass

## Add standard command menu items
### Summary
This PR introduces standard command menu items, migrating hardcoded
command menu actions to the backend command menu item architecture
powered by front components. It adds a new `twenty-standard-application`
package that defines, builds, and registers front components as standard
command menu items, gated behind the `IS_COMMAND_MENU_ITEM_ENABLED`
feature flag.
### Description
- **New `twenty-standard-application` package**: Contains front
component definitions with an esbuild-based build pipeline that
generates minified `.mjs` bundles and a manifest with checksums.
- **Server-side registration**: New constants register all items with
metadata (labels, icons, positions, availability types, conditional
expressions). A `StandardFrontComponentUploadService` uploads built
components to file storage.
- **`FALLBACK` availability type**: New enum value for command menu
items that appear as fallback options (e.g., "Search Records" fallback).
- **`CommandMenuContextApi` refactor**
- **Conditional availability enhancements**: New array-based helper
functions for evaluating multi-record conditions.
- **Frontend wiring** (twenty-front):
`useCommandMenuItemFrontComponentCommands`
## Next steps
Only simple commands have been implemented for now:
- **Navigation (9)** -- `CommandLink`: go-to-companies,
go-to-dashboards, go-to-notes, go-to-opportunities, go-to-people,
go-to-runs, go-to-settings, go-to-tasks, go-to-workflows
- **Side panel (4)** -- `CommandOpenSidePanelPage`: ask-ai,
search-records, search-records-fallback, view-previous-ai-chats
We still have to implement front components for all the following
commands:
All have placeholder `execute` logic (`async () => {}`) with a `// TODO:
implement execute logic` comment:
**Record (22)**
- `add-to-favorites`, `remove-from-favorites`
- `create-new-record`, `create-new-view`
- `delete-single-record`, `delete-multiple-records`
- `destroy-single-record`, `destroy-multiple-records`
- `restore-single-record`, `restore-multiple-records`
- `export-from-record-index`, `export-from-record-show`,
`export-multiple-records`, `export-note-to-pdf`, `export-view`
- `hide-deleted-records`, `see-deleted-records`
- `import-records`, `merge-multiple-records`, `update-multiple-records`
- `navigate-to-next-record`, `navigate-to-previous-record`
**Page layout (3)** -- `cancel-record-page-layout`,
`edit-record-page-layout`, `save-record-page-layout`
**Dashboard (4)** -- `cancel-dashboard-layout`, `duplicate-dashboard`,
`edit-dashboard-layout`, `save-dashboard-layout`
**Workflow (10)** -- `activate-workflow`, `add-node-workflow`,
`deactivate-workflow`, `discard-draft-workflow`, `duplicate-workflow`,
`see-active-version-workflow`, `see-runs-workflow`,
`see-versions-workflow`, `test-workflow`, `tidy-up-workflow`
**Workflow version (4)** -- `see-runs-workflow-version`,
`see-versions-workflow-version`, `see-workflow-workflow-version`,
`use-as-draft-workflow-version`
**Workflow run (3)** -- `see-version-workflow-run`,
`see-workflow-workflow-run`, `stop-workflow-run`
# 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
# Introduction
While testing the sdk and overall apps in
https://github.com/prastoin/twenty-app-hello-world
Faced a lot of pure `CJS` external dependencies import issue
Replaced all the cjs deps to either esm equivalent or node native
replacement
## Summary
Completes the migration of the frontend styling system from **Emotion**
(`@emotion/styled`, `@emotion/react`) to **Linaria** (`@linaria/react`,
`@linaria/core`), a zero-runtime CSS-in-JS library where styles are
extracted at build time.
This is the final step of the migration — all ~494 files across
`twenty-front`, `twenty-ui`, `twenty-website`, and `twenty-sdk` are now
fully converted.
## Changes
### Styling Migration (across ~480 component files)
- Replaced all `@emotion/styled` imports with `@linaria/react`
- Converted runtime theme access patterns (`({ theme }) => theme.x.y`)
to build-time `themeCssVariables` CSS custom properties
- Replaced `useTheme()` hook (from Emotion) with
`useContext(ThemeContext)` where runtime theme values are still needed
(e.g., passing colors to non-CSS props like icon components)
- Removed `@emotion/react` `css` helper usages in favor of Linaria
template literals
### Dependency & Configuration Changes
- **Removed**: `@emotion/react`, `@emotion/styled` from root
`package.json`
- **Added**: `@wyw-in-js/babel-preset`, `next-with-linaria` (for
twenty-website SSR support)
- Updated Nx generator defaults from `@emotion/styled` to
`@linaria/react` in `nx.json`
- Simplified `vite.config.ts` (removed Emotion-specific configuration)
- Updated `twenty-website/next.config.js` to use `next-with-linaria` for
SSR Linaria support
### Storybook & Testing
- Removed `ThemeProvider` from Emotion in Storybook previews
(`twenty-front`, `twenty-sdk`)
- Now relies solely on `ThemeContextProvider` for theme injection
### Documentation
- Removed the temporary `docs/emotion-to-linaria-migration-plan.md`
(migration complete)
- Updated `CLAUDE.md` and `README.md` to reflect Linaria as the styling
stack
- Updated frontend style guide docs across all locales
## How it works
Linaria extracts styles at build time via the `@wyw-in-js/vite` plugin.
All expressions in `styled` template literals must be **statically
evaluable** — no runtime theme objects or closures over component state.
- **Static styles** use `themeCssVariables` which map to CSS custom
properties (`var(--theme-color-x)`)
- **Runtime theme access** (for non-CSS use cases like icon `color`
props) uses `useContext(ThemeContext)` instead of Emotion's `useTheme()`
# Introduction
Allow a consumer call the commands programmatically instead of passing
by the exec
To do so extract from the command definition all the core logic, created
a new error api that allow keeping same error logs granularity than
before
## Usage
```ts
import { authLogin, appUninstall, functionExecute } from 'twenty-sdk/cli';
const result = await authLogin({
apiKey: 'my-key',
apiUrl: 'https://my-twenty.com',
});
if (!result.success) {
throw new Error(result.error);
}
```
## `app:build`
Introduced a new command that will allow building the whole project
without any watch setup
- Build and validate manifest
- Get or create app
- Synchronize manifest with twenty-sdk stub and no typecheck
- generate client
- Run typecheck
- Synchronize manifest again
