## Summary - Adds `deploy-twenty-app` and `install-twenty-app` composite actions to `.github/actions/` so app repos can reference them remotely — same pattern as `spawn-twenty-app-dev-test` for CI - Updates `cd.yml` in template, hello-world, and postcard to use `twentyhq/twenty/.github/actions/deploy-twenty-app@main` / `install-twenty-app@main` instead of local `./.github/actions/` copies - Removes the 6 local action files that were duplicated across template and example apps **Before** (each app repo carried its own action copies): ```yaml uses: ./.github/actions/deploy ``` **After** (centralized, like CI): ```yaml uses: twentyhq/twenty/.github/actions/deploy-twenty-app@main ``` Made with [Cursor](https://cursor.com)
The official scaffolding CLI for building apps on top of Twenty CRM. Sets up a ready-to-run project with twenty-sdk.
Quick start
npx create-twenty-app@latest my-twenty-app
cd my-twenty-app

The scaffolder will:
- Create a new project with TypeScript, linting, tests, and a preconfigured
twentyCLI - Optionally start a local Twenty server (Docker)
- Open the browser for OAuth authentication

- Publishing — deploy, npm publish, marketplace
Troubleshooting
- Server not starting: check Docker is running (
docker info), then tryyarn twenty server logs. - Auth not working: make sure you are logged in to Twenty in the browser, then run
yarn twenty remote add. - Types not generated: ensure
yarn twenty devis running — it auto-generates the typed client.
