## 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.
## Test plan
- [x] \`npx nx run twenty-sdk:build\` succeeds
- [x] \`npx nx run twenty-sdk:typecheck\` passes
- [x] \`npx nx run twenty-sdk:test:unit\` passes (31 files / 257 tests)
- [x] \`npx nx run-many -t typecheck
--projects=twenty-front,twenty-server,twenty-front-component-renderer,twenty-sdk,twenty-shared,bundle-investigation\`
passes
- [x] \`node
packages/twenty-apps/internal/bundle-investigation/scripts/build-variants.mjs\`

## Split twenty-sdk build into separate Node and browser targets
The SDK was bundling Node.js code (CLI, SDK API) and browser code (UI
components, front-component renderer) through a single Vite config. This
caused incorrect externalization — Node builtins leaked into browser
bundles and browser-specific chunking logic applied to CLI output.
This PR splits the build into `vite.config.node.ts` and
`vite.config.browser.ts` so each target gets the right externals and
output format.
Also includes a few housekeeping renames:
- `front-component` export path → `front-component-renderer` (matches
what it actually is)
- `front-component-common` merged into `front-component-api` (was a
needless extra module)
## PR description
This PR:
- Creates a TypeScript-based extractor that discovers all exported
twenty-ui components by scanning barrel files, extracting
props/slots/events via ts-morph type analysis, and generating the remote
DOM bindings automatically.
- Adds a new ESLint rule which enforces all *Props types in twenty-ui
components to be exported, which is required for the extractor to
discover component prop types. Existing twenty-ui components are updated
to comply with this rule.
- Extends the remote DOM generation to support slots, per-component
events, forwardRef wrappers, and richer property types (array, object,
function)
## Edge cases to fix in another PR
- Icons cannot be rendered inside buttons
- IconButtons throw an error when mounted
- MenuItems are not displayed correctly
- MenuItemNavigate throws on click

## Summary
This PR fixes the `tsconfig` setup in `twenty-front` so that `tsgo -p
tsconfig.json` properly type-checks all files.
### Root Cause
The previous setup used TypeScript project references with `files: []`
in the main `tsconfig.json`. When running `tsgo -p tsconfig.json`, this
checks nothing because `tsgo` requires the `-b` (build) flag for project
references, but the configs weren't set up for composite mode.
### Changes
**Simplified tsconfig architecture (4 files → 2):**
- `tsconfig.json` - All files (dev, tests, stories) for
typecheck/IDE/lint
- `tsconfig.build.json` - Production files only (excludes tests/stories)
**Removed redundant configs:**
- `tsconfig.dev.json`
- `tsconfig.spec.json`
- `tsconfig.storybook.json`
**Updated references:**
- `jest.config.mjs` → uses `tsconfig.json`
- `eslint.config.mjs` → uses `tsconfig.json`
- `vite.config.ts` → uses `tsconfig.json` for dev
**Type fixes (pre-existing errors revealed by proper typechecking):**
- Made `applicationId` optional in `FieldMetadataItem` and
`ObjectMetadataItem`
- Added missing `navigationMenuItem` translation
- Added `objectLabelSingular` to Search GraphQL query
- Fixed `sortMorphItems.test.ts` mock data
## Test plan
- [ ] Run `npx nx typecheck twenty-front` - should pass
- [ ] Run `npx nx lint twenty-front` - should work
- [ ] Run `npx nx test twenty-front` - should work
- [ ] Run `npx nx build twenty-front` - should work
- [ ] Verify IDE type checking works correctly
## Add `frontComponent` entity type to SDK
This PR adds a new `frontComponent` entity type at parity with
`serverlessFunction`. Front components are React components that can be
defined and bundled as part of Twenty applications.
### Changes
#### New Entity Type
- Added `FRONT_COMPONENT` to `SyncableEntity` enum
- Front components use `*.front-component.tsx` file naming convention
- CLI command `twenty app:add` now includes `front-component` as an
option
#### SDK Application Layer (`twenty-sdk`)
- Added `defineFrontComponent()` function for defining front component
configurations with validation
- Added `FrontComponentConfig` type for component configuration
- Added `getFrontComponentBaseFile()` template generator for scaffolding
new front components
- Added `loadFrontComponentModule()` to load front component modules and
extract component metadata
#### Shared Types (`twenty-shared`)
- Added `FrontComponentManifest` type with `universalIdentifier`,
`name`, `description`, `componentPath`, and `componentName` fields
- Updated `ApplicationManifest` to include optional `frontComponents`
array
#### Manifest Build System
- Updated `manifest-build.ts` to discover and load
`*.front-component.tsx` files
- Updated `manifest-validate.ts` to validate front components and check
for duplicate IDs
- Updated `manifest-display.ts` to display front component count in
build summary
- Updated `manifest-plugin.ts` to display front component entry points
and watch `.tsx` files
#### Template (`create-twenty-app`)
- New applications now include a sample
`hello-world.front-component.tsx` file
#### Tests
- Added unit tests for `defineFrontComponent()`
- Added unit tests for `getFrontComponentBaseFile()`
As title
- adds decorators in twenty-sdk
- update twenty-cli load-manifest to it gets @FieldMetadata infos +
testing
- update twenty-server so it CRUD fields properly, using
universalIdentifier
- Fix UI so we can update managed objects records
- move FieldMetadata items from twenty-server to twenty-shared
