## Summary
- The `sdk-e2e-test` CI job has been failing since at least April 9th
because the nx dependency graph runs `database:reset` and
`start:ci-if-needed` in **parallel** — neither depends on the other. The
server starts before the DB tables are created, crashes with `relation
"core.keyValuePair" does not exist`, and `wait-on` times out after 10
minutes.
- Replace the `nx-affected` orchestration for e2e with explicit
**sequential** CI steps: build → create DB → reset DB → start server →
wait for health → run tests.
- Add server log dump on failure for easier future debugging.
## Root cause
In `packages/twenty-sdk/project.json`, the `test:e2e` target has:
```json
"dependsOn": [
"build",
{ "target": "database:reset", "projects": "twenty-server" },
{ "target": "start:ci-if-needed", "projects": "twenty-server" }
]
```
Since `database:reset` and `start:ci-if-needed` don't depend on each
other, nx can (and does) run them concurrently. `start:ci-if-needed`
fires `nohup nest start &` and immediately completes. The server process
tries to query `core.keyValuePair` before `database:reset` creates it →
crash → wait-on timeout → job failure.

Why Twenty
We built Twenty for three reasons:
CRMs are too expensive, and users are trapped. Companies use locked-in customer data to hike prices. It shouldn't be that way.
A fresh start is required to build a better experience. We can learn from past mistakes and craft a cohesive experience inspired by new UX patterns from tools like Notion, Airtable or Linear.
We believe in open-source and community. Hundreds of developers are already building Twenty together. Once we have plugin capabilities, a whole ecosystem will grow around it.
