## Context
`isCustom` was a legacy denormalized boolean on `ObjectMetadataEntity`
and `FieldMetadataEntity`.
Now that every metadata row carries `applicationId` (via
`SyncableEntity`), "is this custom" is fully derivable, and the stored
boolean was a redundant second source of truth that could drift.
The real meaning of `isCustom` is **"the owning application is not the
twenty-standard application"** — i.e. `!belongsToTwentyStandardApp`.
Note this is *not* "belongs to the workspace custom app" as I initially
thought: third-party-application
objects/fields are custom too.
The standard application has a globally stable `universalIdentifier`, so
the value derives with no per-workspace lookup.
## Changed
## `isCustom` checks — before → after
`isCustom` is no longer a stored column. The table below lists every
site that branched on it and how it resolves now. The unifying rule:
`isCustom ≡
!isTwentyStandardApplicationUniversalIdentifier(applicationUniversalIdentifier)`.

## Why
App installs on cloud intermittently fail with a 504, surfacing in
Sentry as `Migration action 'update' for 'logicFunction' failed` +
`Failed to rollback transaction: Query runner already released`. This is
**temporary instrumentation** to pin down where the time goes — to be
reverted once the bottleneck is fixed. Everything is greppable via
`[install-perf]` and marked `// TODO(install-perf)`.
## What the local repro already told us
I instrumented the manifest-sync/migration path and ran a local harness
(new skipped spec) installing **1 / 8 / 30 logic functions**, for both
create and the checksum-bump **update** (the incident path):
| stage (N=30, update) | ms |
|---|---|
| flat-maps recompute | ~1 |
| build migration | ~11 |
| transaction (all actions + commit) | ~79 |
| post-commit cache invalidate | ~6 |
| **full sync** | **~135** |
Nothing approached 1s, let alone 10s; no slow queries logged. So the
migration/cache code is **not** the algorithmic cause. Given the
in-transaction `UPDATE ... WHERE id=?` is intrinsically fast, a >10s in
prod almost certainly means it was **blocked on a lock**, and the 10s
node-pg `query_timeout` (`core.datasource.ts`) then killed the
connection → the observed errors + 504. Local can't reproduce prod lock
contention / table sizes, hence this instrumentation.
## What this adds (all `TODO`-marked)
- **hrtime per-stage timing** — flat-maps recompute, build vs run,
per-action (`>50ms`), transaction summary, post-commit cache
invalidation. Uses `process.hrtime` because the integration harness
enables fake timers (so `Date.now()` is useless there).
- **`maxQueryExecutionTime`** slow-query logging on the core datasource
(logs the offending SQL).
- **Scoped `SET LOCAL lock_timeout = '8s'`** on the migration
transaction (below the 10s `query_timeout`) → a blocked action fails
fast with a clear *"canceling statement due to lock timeout"* instead of
the opaque connection kill.
- **Best-effort `pg_stat_activity` snapshot on failure** (on a fresh
pooled connection) to identify the blocking session, plus a **guarded
rollback** so a released connection stops masking the real error.
- **Skipped local perf harness**
(`logic-function-install-performance.integration-spec.ts`) — run
manually with `nx test:integration:with-db-reset -- --testPathPattern
"logic-function-install-performance"`.
## How we'll use it
Deploy, reproduce the failing install, and read the `[install-perf]`
logs: the per-action timing names the action, the `lock_timeout` message
+ `pg_stat_activity` snapshot name the **blocking** query/PID. Then
revert this PR and fix the actual contention.
Typecheck (`nx typecheck twenty-server`) is clean.
Split out of #21240. Stacked on #21250 (review/merge that first).
`yarn twenty dev --once --dry-run` computes the migration plan and
prints the diff **without applying anything** (no migration, no
app-record update, no SDK generation). Also renders the diff on a normal
`dev --once` sync.

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/59f3ddcd-2a5b-4b8a-b21a-c659abe16af0"
/>
A junction relation points at a target field on the join object that
another action may create later (two junctions into the same join
reference each other). The builder validator now also looks up the
target in the to be created set, and the runner mints every field id up
front so the target resolves regardless of action order, the same way
relation pairs are already handled.

## Summary
Lets a Twenty application add **view fields (columns) to an existing
view it does not own** — including standard views like the People index
view — without redeclaring/owning that view. This mirrors the existing,
working pattern by which an app adds a custom field to a standard object
via `defineField` + `objectUniversalIdentifier`.
The asymmetry being removed was purely in the manifest schema:
`ViewFieldManifest` only existed *nested* inside
`ViewManifest.fields[]`, so adding a view field forced declaring a
`ViewManifest` — which the sync treats as a view the app creates and
owns, and rejects when the UID is a standard view's. Validation,
persistence, the FK aggregator machinery, and uninstall cleanup were
already generic and cross-app-safe, so no engine changes were needed.
### Changes
- **twenty-shared:** new top-level `StandaloneViewFieldManifest`
(`ViewFieldManifest & { viewUniversalIdentifier }`),
`Manifest.viewFields`, and a `SyncableEntity.ViewField` member.
- **twenty-sdk:** `defineViewField` (validates `universalIdentifier` +
`viewUniversalIdentifier` + `fieldMetadataUniversalIdentifier`), CLI
manifest assembly of a top-level `viewFields` list, and `dev:add
viewField` scaffolding.
- **twenty-server:** one top-level loop over `manifest.viewFields` that
reuses the existing `fromViewFieldManifestToUniversalFlatViewField`
converter (already parameterized by `viewUniversalIdentifier`). No
validator/persistence/aggregator changes.
### Notes for maintainers
- Confirm the `Manifest.viewFields` optionality convention — implemented
as a **required** array to mirror `fields`/`views`.
- Two different apps adding a column for the same field to the same view
conflicts on the existing unique `(fieldMetadataId, viewId)` partial
index; the existing `flat-view-field-validator` duplicate check surfaces
this as a structured validation error.
- `dev:add viewField` scaffolding is included (was optional in the
plan).
## Test Plan
- [x] `twenty-shared` typecheck
- [x] `twenty-sdk` 364 unit tests + `buildManifest` assembly test
(rich-app fixture) + typecheck + prettier
- [x] `twenty-server` typecheck + `lint:diff-with-main`
- [x] **Server integration suite**
`successful-manifest-update-view-field.integration-spec.ts` (4/4):
- standalone view field attaches to the standard `allPeople` view
without recreating it (sync succeeds, no
`INVALID_VIEW_DATA`/`ENTITY_ALREADY_EXISTS`)
- uninstall removes the contributed column while the standard view + its
columns remain intact
- duplicate `(view, field)` rejected with `METADATA_VALIDATION_FAILED`
- unknown target view rejected
- [x] Sibling `successful-manifest-update-field.integration-spec.ts`
still green (no harness regression)

# Introduction
Atm when computing the `fromAllFlatEntityMaps` we're retrieving all the
applicationIds related metadata entities to build a flat entity maps
scoped to them ( atm always the applicationId + twenty-standard
application id ) only inter app dependency we manage for the moment
A flat entity contains universal identifier aggregator to its related
entities
The issue was that the `getApplicationSubAllFlatEntityMaps` wasn't
pruning the aggregator by app
Now added a new process phase after the initial one that will check that
all the aggregators contains universal identifiers that has been
retrieve from the appId + appId standard intersection
## TDD test

## IANA override

- Any pulbic assets that has .ts will now also fallback to

## Integration
Added coverage
## Context
Adds the SDK plumbing for apps to declare custom permission flags and
the server-side manifest pipeline to persist them.
```typescript
import { definePermissionFlag } from 'twenty-sdk/define';
export const MANAGE_INVOICES_PERMISSION_FLAG_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIER = '…';
export default definePermissionFlag({
universalIdentifier: MANAGE_INVOICES_PERMISSION_FLAG_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIER,
key: 'MANAGE_INVOICES',
label: 'Manage Invoices',
description: 'Create, edit, and delete invoices',
icon: 'IconReceipt',
});
```
```typescript
import { defineApplicationRole, SystemPermissionFlag } from 'twenty-sdk/define';
import { MANAGE_INVOICES_PERMISSION_FLAG_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIER } from './permission-flags/manage-invoices';
export default defineApplicationRole({
universalIdentifier: DEFAULT_ROLE_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIER,
label: `${APP_DISPLAY_NAME} default function role`,
// ...
permissionFlagUniversalIdentifiers: [
SystemPermissionFlag.UPLOAD_FILE,
MANAGE_INVOICES_PERMISSION_FLAG_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIER,
],
});
```
The flag can then be referenced by UUID in a role's
permissionFlagUniversalIdentifiers. On sync, the catalog row lands in
core.permissionFlag and the link in core.rolePermissionFlag.
## Not in this PR
- Runtime permission checks.
PermissionsService.getUserWorkspacePermissions still builds its result
from Object.values(PermissionFlagType), so custom flags are stored but
not yet enforced, code asking "does this role have MANAGE_INVOICES?"
won't get a meaningful answer. Widening PermissionsService and
UserWorkspacePermissions.permissionFlags to support arbitrary flag keys
is the next PR.
- PermissionFlag from apps can only define "tool" permissions and not
"settings" as a permissionType, this parameter is not mutable. This is
because "settings" are for settings page (until we might decide to
separate both type of permissions into 2 different entities) and apps
can't declare settings page or interact with them so this parameter
would be unnecessary.
# Introduction
Related https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/issues/20879
More abstracted response error and cleaner integrity check before
performing any in database search
Nothing critical patched here
Also added integration coverage to the related endpoint
Fixed the stream on error throw that would have been bubbling up into
node process
## Next
Once this has been approved will re-apply to all the existing prone
file.getBy* methods and controllers endpoints
# Summary
Replaces the enum-keyed `permissionFlags: PermissionFlag[]` on roles
with `permissionFlagUniversalIdentifiers: string[]`
This unlocks mixing system flags (`SystemPermissionFlag.*`) with
app-defined flags in a role config.
This is a breaking change. Existing app source must switch to the new
field.
# Breaking changes
- `RoleManifest.permissionFlags` removed. Use
`RoleManifest.permissionFlagUniversalIdentifiers: string[]`.
- `RoleConfig.permissionFlags` removed (was `PermissionFlagType[]`). Use
`RoleConfig.permissionFlagUniversalIdentifiers: string[]`.
- `PermissionFlagManifest` type removed from
`twenty-shared/application`.
- `PermissionFlag` re-export removed from `twenty-sdk/define`.
`SystemPermissionFlag` is re-exported in its place.
- Retargeting a permission flag between roles is now classified as
delete + create instead of update
### Not in this PR
- definePermissionFlag SDK function and top-level
Manifest.permissionFlags catalog (apps defining their own custom flags).
Until those land, permissionFlagUniversalIdentifiers only accepts
SystemPermissionFlag.* UUIDs; arbitrary UUIDs fail validation.
Split of #20377.
## Summary
This PR separates available permission flags from per-role permission
flag grants.
Previously, `core.permissionFlag` stored the role assignment directly:
`roleId + flag`. This PR renames that legacy grant table to
`core.rolePermissionFlag`, then recreates `core.permissionFlag` as the
catalog of available permission flags.
## What changed
- Rename the existing `core.permissionFlag` grant table to
`core.rolePermissionFlag`.
- Add the new syncable `core.permissionFlag` catalog entity with key,
label, description, icon, permission type, relevance flags, and
custom/standard metadata.
- Add stable `SystemPermissionFlag` universal identifiers for the
built-in `PermissionFlagType` values.
- Seed the standard permission flags for every workspace under the
Twenty standard application.
- Backfill existing role grants:
- create missing catalog rows for existing grant keys,
- add `rolePermissionFlag.permissionFlagId`,
- migrate grants from the old string `flag` column to the new catalog
FK,
- replace the old `(flag, roleId)` uniqueness with `(permissionFlagId,
roleId)`.
- Rewire role permission flag caches, permission checks, role DTO
mapping, and `upsertPermissionFlags` to resolve through the catalog.
- Keep the existing public role permission API shape: product/app
surfaces still talk about `permissionFlags` and return `{ id, roleId,
flag }`.
- Update metadata flat-entity machinery, migration builders, validators,
action handlers, snapshots, generated schemas, docs, and app fixtures
for the new `permissionFlag` / `rolePermissionFlag` split.
## Behavior after this PR
- Existing permission flag grants keep working.
- Existing GraphQL role permission flows keep the same public naming.
- Standard permission flags are represented as catalog rows.
- Permission checks now compare grants through catalog universal
identifiers instead of the legacy `flag` column.
- Workspace deletion cleanup now verifies both `permissionFlag` and
`rolePermissionFlag`.
## What is not in this PR
- Public GraphQL CRUD for custom permission flags.
- App manifest support for declaring new custom permission flags.
- Frontend UI for creating or assigning custom permission flags beyond
the existing role permission flow.

## Context
The runtime create-field path and the v2.5
`NormalizeCompositeFieldDefaultsCommand` workspace upgrade both run
composite `defaultValue`s through `nullifyEmptyCompositeDefaultValue`.
The manifest install/sync path was the only write path that skipped it:
[`fromFieldManifestToUniversalFlatFieldMetadata`](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/blob/main/packages/twenty-server/src/engine/core-modules/application/application-manifest/converters/from-field-manifest-to-universal-flat-field-metadata.util.ts)
passed `fieldManifest.defaultValue` through verbatim.
For the SDK-emitted ACTOR system fields (`createdBy` / `updatedBy`),
`twenty-sdk` ships `{ name: "''", source: "'MANUAL'" }`. After the
runtime or the 2.5 normalize command stores them, the workspace row
holds the canonical four-key form `{ context: null, name: null, source:
"'MANUAL'", workspaceMemberId: null }`. The next install computes its TO
map from the manifest, still gets the raw two-key shape, and diffs it
against the normalized FROM. The dispatcher emits a `defaultValue`
update on each system actor field; the flat-field-metadata validator
rejects it with `FIELD_MUTATION_NOT_ALLOWED`, blocking every re-install
of any application that defines a custom object on a v2.5-normalized
workspace.
## Fix
Normalize composite `defaultValue`s inside the converter, reusing the
same `nullifyEmptyCompositeDefaultValue` helper the three other write
paths already share:
-
[`get-default-flat-field-metadata-from-create-field-input.util.ts`](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/blob/main/packages/twenty-server/src/engine/metadata-modules/flat-field-metadata/utils/get-default-flat-field-metadata-from-create-field-input.util.ts)
— `createOneObject` and `createOneField` GraphQL paths.
-
[`sanitize-raw-update-field-input.ts`](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/blob/main/packages/twenty-server/src/engine/metadata-modules/flat-field-metadata/utils/sanitize-raw-update-field-input.ts)
— `updateOneField` GraphQL path.
-
[`2-5-workspace-command-1778000001000-normalize-composite-field-defaults.command.ts`](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/blob/main/packages/twenty-server/src/database/commands/upgrade-version-command/2-5/2-5-workspace-command-1778000001000-normalize-composite-field-defaults.command.ts)
— the upgrade backfill that introduced the divergence.
After the fix, the four write paths agree on the canonical shape, so
re-installs are no-ops on system actor fields regardless of when the 2.5
normalize command ran. Non-composite types pass through unchanged.
## Test
New spec
`from-field-manifest-to-universal-flat-field-metadata.util.spec.ts`
covers:
- Empty-name actor defaults are normalized to the four-key canonical
shape.
- The converter is idempotent: feeding its own output back in produces
the same result (so two consecutive syncs of the same manifest never
emit a `defaultValue` update).
- When the manifest omits `defaultValue`, the converter falls back to
`generateDefaultValue` and normalizes the result.
- Non-composite defaults pass through unchanged.
```
PASS src/engine/core-modules/application/application-manifest/converters/__tests__/from-field-manifest-to-universal-flat-field-metadata.util.spec.ts
fromFieldManifestToUniversalFlatFieldMetadata
composite defaultValue normalization
✓ normalizes empty-name actor defaults to the canonical four-key shape
✓ is idempotent: re-running the converter on its own output yields the same defaultValue
✓ falls back to the generated default and normalizes it when defaultValue is omitted
✓ leaves non-composite defaults untouched
Tests: 4 passed
```
## CI gap that let this through
The integration suites covering manifest install (`appDevOnce` against
the test workspace) never re-installed an existing app on a workspace
whose composite fields had already been put through the 2.5 normalize
command. They synced once, then ran assertions on the resulting state;
the second sync that would have re-triggered the `defaultValue` diff was
never exercised.
If we want to catch this class of regression at the integration level
too, we'd add a test that (1) syncs an app whose manifest includes an
ACTOR system field with the raw SDK shape, (2) invokes
`NormalizeCompositeFieldDefaultsCommand` directly on the test workspace,
(3) re-syncs the same manifest, and (4) asserts no
`FIELD_MUTATION_NOT_ALLOWED` errors. The unit-level idempotency check in
this PR is the minimal version of that same coverage. Happy to ship that
integration spec in a follow-up if it'd help.
## 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
PR #20181 left `ConnectionProvider` in the `SyncableEntity` enum but
bypassing the standard sync pipeline — manifest sync called the bespoke
`ApplicationOAuthProviderService.upsertManyFromManifest()` instead of
going through the workspace-migration orchestrator like every other
SyncableEntity. Anything that assumed *"all SyncableEntity values flow
through the same pipeline"* (dev UI sync tracking, verification tooling)
was wrong about ConnectionProvider — that's the inconsistency this PR
closes.
This PR follows the `.cursor/skills/syncable-entity-*` guides
religiously, all six steps.
## What changes
**Step 1 — Types & Constants** (`@syncable-entity-types-and-constants`)
- Add `connectionProvider` to `ALL_METADATA_NAME` (twenty-shared)
- Make `ApplicationOAuthProviderEntity` extend `SyncableEntity` (drops
the ad-hoc columns since the base class provides them, adds `deletedAt`,
drops the old `(applicationId, universalIdentifier)` unique in favour of
SyncableEntity's `(workspaceId, universalIdentifier)`)
- `FlatConnectionProvider`, `FlatConnectionProviderMaps`,
`FLAT_CONNECTION_PROVIDER_EDITABLE_PROPERTIES`,
`UniversalFlatConnectionProvider`, six action types
- Register in **all** the central registries:
`AllFlatEntityTypesByMetadataName`,
`ALL_METADATA_ENTITY_BY_METADATA_NAME`,
`ALL_ENTITY_PROPERTIES_CONFIGURATION`, `ALL_MANY_TO_ONE_*`,
`ALL_ONE_TO_MANY_*`, `ALL_METADATA_REQUIRED_METADATA_FOR_VALIDATION`,
`ALL_METADATA_SERIALIZED_RELATION`,
`ALL_JSONB_PROPERTIES_WITH_SERIALIZED_RELATION`,
`WORKSPACE_CACHE_KEYS_V2` (`flatConnectionProviderMaps`),
`METADATA_EVENTS_TO_EMIT`
- `case 'connectionProvider':` in seven discriminated-union switches
(`derive-metadata-events-*`, `optimistically-apply-*`,
`enrich-create-*`)
**Step 2 — Cache & Transform** (`@syncable-entity-cache-and-transform`)
- `WorkspaceFlatConnectionProviderMapCacheService` (extends
`WorkspaceCacheProvider`, decorated with `@WorkspaceCache`,
soft-delete-aware)
- `fromConnectionProviderEntityToFlatConnectionProvider` util
- `fromConnectionProviderManifestToUniversalFlatConnectionProvider` util
- `FlatConnectionProviderModule` wires the cache service
- Wired the manifest converter into
`compute-application-manifest-all-universal-flat-entity-maps`
**Step 3 — Builder & Validation**
(`@syncable-entity-builder-and-validation`)
- `FlatConnectionProviderValidatorService` — never throws, returns error
arrays; uses indexed `byUniversalIdentifier` for the (name,
applicationUniversalIdentifier) uniqueness check (no
`Object.values().find()` on the hot path)
- `WorkspaceMigrationConnectionProviderActionsBuilderService`
- Registered in both validators-module + builder-module
- **Wired into the orchestrator** (the most-commonly-forgotten step per
the rule) — constructor inject, destructure
`flatConnectionProviderMaps`, `validateAndBuild`, append actions to the
final migration
**Step 4 — Runner & Actions** (`@syncable-entity-runner-and-actions`)
- Three handlers (create / update / delete) using the canonical
`WorkspaceMigrationRunnerActionHandler` mixin
- Registered in `WorkspaceSchemaMigrationRunnerActionHandlersModule`
**Step 5 — Integration** (`@syncable-entity-integration`)
- Delete the `upsertManyFromManifest` bypass on
`ApplicationOAuthProviderService`
- Remove the bypass call from `ApplicationSyncService` — manifest sync
now flows through the standard pipeline
- Drop `ApplicationOAuthProviderModule` from `ApplicationManifestModule`
(no longer needed)
- Import `FlatConnectionProviderModule` from
`ApplicationOAuthProviderModule` to keep the cache discoverable
- 3 new exception codes: `INVALID_CONNECTION_PROVIDER_INPUT`,
`CONNECTION_PROVIDER_NOT_FOUND`,
`CONNECTION_PROVIDER_NAME_ALREADY_EXISTS`
**Migration**
- Generated via `database:migrate:generate` (instance command
`1777896012579`): drops the old `(applicationId, universalIdentifier)`
unique constraint, adds `deletedAt` column, adds the `(workspaceId,
universalIdentifier)` unique index that `SyncableEntity` requires.
- Verified clean — a second `migrate:generate` pass produces zero drift.
**Step 6 — Tests** (`@syncable-entity-testing`)
- 3 new specs for the manifest converter (defaults, optional fields,
all-fields)
- All 32 existing OAuth-provider tests still pass
- ConnectionProvider has no end-user GraphQL CRUD (it's manifest-driven
only), so the GraphQL integration suite that other SyncableEntities ship
doesn't apply here
**Codegen**
- Regenerated GraphQL artifacts (twenty-front + twenty-client-sdk)
against the live schema
## Why this matters
Before:
- `ConnectionProvider` claimed to be a `SyncableEntity` (in the enum)
- But the entity didn't extend `SyncableEntity`
- And the manifest sync bypassed the standard pipeline
- → Verification tooling, dev UI sync tracking, anything iterating over
`ALL_METADATA_NAME` got inconsistent behaviour
After:
- `ConnectionProvider` is a `SyncableEntity` end-to-end
- Single sync path through the workspace-migration orchestrator (same as
`agent`, `skill`, `frontComponent`, `webhook`, …)
- One mental model
## Out of scope (deliberate)
- **Renaming the table** from `applicationOAuthProvider` to
`connectionProvider` — the `metadataName` is `connectionProvider` (what
consumers see in code); the table name is internal. A rename would
balloon this PR with mechanical churn unrelated to the sync-pipeline
wiring. Worth doing as a follow-up.
- **`applicationVariable` SyncableEntity conversion** — the other
manifest-sync holdout. Tracked in #20215.
## Test plan
- [ ] Migration up/down clean against fresh DB
- [ ] Install an app whose manifest declares connection providers —
providers appear in the workspace
- [ ] Re-deploy the app with one provider added, one removed, one
renamed → all reconciled correctly via the sync pipeline
- [ ] Verify the dev-UI sync-tracking page shows ConnectionProvider
entries the same way it shows agents/skills/etc
- [ ] OAuth flow still works (existing connections, new connections,
reconnect, list/get from SDK) — should be unchanged since the runtime
code path didn't move

## 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.
# Introduction
Even though this would not possible through API at the moment, from
neither API metadata or manifest ( as manifest `permissionsFlag`
declarations etc are done from within a declared role )
Prevent any app to create permissions entities over another app role
from the validation engine itself
## `isEditable`
We might wanna deprecate this column at some point from the entity it
self as now the grain would rather be `what app owns that role ?`

## Summary
- Add `WorkspaceMigrationGraphqlApiExceptionInterceptor` to
`MarketplaceResolver` and `ApplicationInstallResolver` so validation
failures during app install return `METADATA_VALIDATION_FAILED` with
structured `extensions.errors` instead of generic
`INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR`
- Update SDK `installTarballApp()` to pass the full GraphQL error object
(including extensions) through the install flow
- Add `formatInstallValidationErrors` utility to format structured
validation errors for CLI output
- Add integration test verifying structured error responses for invalid
navigation menu items and view fields

# Introduction
Gracefully validating that when creating an entity its
`universalIdentifier` is available within the all application metadata
maps context ( current app + twenty standard, currently the only managed
dependencies )
## Summary
- Adds `isUnique?: boolean` to `RegularFieldManifest` in
`twenty-shared`, allowing SDK applications to declare unique constraints
on fields
- Updates the manifest-to-flat-field converter to read `isUnique` from
the manifest instead of hardcoding `false`
- Generates corresponding unique index metadata in
`computeApplicationManifestAllUniversalFlatEntityMaps` when a field has
`isUnique: true`, matching the behavior of the `CreateFieldInput` path
- Adds SDK-side validation rejecting `isUnique` on RELATION,
MORPH_RELATION, and FILES field types
- Adds integration test verifying manifest sync creates a unique index
for `isUnique` fields
- Adds SDK unit tests for `isUnique` validation on unsupported field
types
## Test plan
- [x] SDK unit tests: `defineField` accepts `isUnique: true` on TEXT,
rejects on RELATION and FILES
- [ ] Integration test: manifest sync with `isUnique: true` creates the
unique index in DB
- [ ] Verify `isUnique` defaults to `false` when not specified (backward
compatible)
- [ ] Verify standalone manifest fields (not nested in objects) also
generate unique indexes correctly
## Summary
- Fix `syncApplication` crashing with `ENTITY_NOT_FOUND` when a
navigation menu item child (with `folderUniversalIdentifier`) appears
before its folder in the manifest's `navigationMenuItems` array
- Add a generic topological sort in
`WorkspaceEntityMigrationBuilderService.validateAndBuild()` that detects
self-referential FKs from `ALL_MANY_TO_ONE_METADATA_RELATIONS` and
ensures parents are created before children
- This also covers other self-referential entities:
`viewFilterGroup.parentViewFilterGroup`,
`fieldMetadata.relationTargetFieldMetadata`, and
`rowLevelPermissionPredicateGroup.parentRowLevelPermissionPredicateGroup`
## Root cause
The builder iterated `createdFlatEntityMaps.byUniversalIdentifier` in
insertion order (from the manifest). Validation passed because it
checked both optimistic maps and remaining-to-create maps. But the
runner processed create actions sequentially, so
`resolveUniversalRelationIdentifiersToIds` threw when the folder hadn't
been created yet.
- disable publish with existing version
- disable installation of app version already installed

## 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`.
## Summary
- Remove the `IS_APPLICATION_ENABLED` feature flag — application
features are now always enabled
- Remove `@RequireFeatureFlag` decorators and `FeatureFlagGuard` from 7
application resolvers (registration, development, manifest, install,
upgrade, marketplace, oauth)
- Remove frontend feature flag checks: settings navigation visibility,
route protection wrapper, side panel widget type gating, and role
permission flag filtering
- Delete the integration test for disabled-flag behavior
- Clean up seed data, test mocks, and generated schema files
## 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
- Adds a `color` column to `ObjectMetadataEntity` with full GraphQL
support so object icon colors are persisted at the metadata level
- Adds a `type` column to `NavigationMenuItemEntity` (enum: `OBJECT`,
`VIEW`, `FOLDER`, `LINK`, `RECORD`) replacing field-based type inference
- Updates frontend to read object colors from `objectMetadata.color`
(falling back to standard defaults) in the sidebar nav, record index
header, and record show breadcrumb
- Simplifies `NavigationMenuItemIcon` color resolution via
`getEffectiveNavigationMenuItemColor` util
## Color rules
| Item type | Color source | Editable in sidebar? |
|-----------|-------------|---------------------|
| **Object** | `objectMetadata.color` | Yes — persisted to
`objectMetadata.color` on Save |
| **Folder** | `navigationMenuItem.color` | Yes |
| **Link** | Fixed default (`DEFAULT_NAVIGATION_MENU_ITEM_COLOR_LINK`) |
No |
| **View** | `objectMetadata.color` (from the parent object) | No |
| **Record** | None | No |
- **Object** items represent the whole object (e.g. "Companies") and
point to the INDEX view. Changing their color updates
`objectMetadata.color` via `useSaveObjectMetadataColorsFromDraft`.
- **View** items represent specific non-INDEX views. Their color comes
from the parent object's metadata (read-only).
- Only **folders** store their color on `navigationMenuItem.color` —
enforced by `hasNavigationMenuItemOwnColor` util.
- `getEffectiveNavigationMenuItemColor` returns `objectColor` for both
OBJECT and VIEW items, folder's own color for folders, and the fixed
default for links.
## NavigationMenuItemType enum
- Shared enum created in `twenty-shared` with values: `OBJECT`, `VIEW`,
`FOLDER`, `LINK`, `RECORD`
- Registered as a GraphQL enum on the backend
- Replaces string literals across entity, DTOs, input, converters, and
frontend hooks
- Migration backfills existing rows: INDEX views → `OBJECT`, non-INDEX
views → `VIEW`, based on join with the view table
## Design decisions
- **OBJECT vs VIEW distinction**: Items pointing to INDEX views are
typed as `OBJECT` (represent the whole object, color editable). Items
pointing to non-INDEX views are typed as `VIEW` (specific view, color
read-only from parent object).
- **Dual color storage**: `navigationMenuItem.color` is preserved for
folders only. Objects use `objectMetadata.color` as their source of
truth.
- **Type discriminator**: The `type` column replaces field-based
inference (checking `viewId`, `link`, `targetRecordId` presence) with an
explicit enum, simplifying `isNavigationMenuItemLink` /
`isNavigationMenuItemFolder` to simple `item.type ===` checks.
- **No settings page color picker**: Object color editing is done from
the sidebar edit panel, not the data model settings page.
## Test plan
- [ ] Verify objects display their default standard colors in the
sidebar
- [ ] Verify object color editing works in the sidebar edit panel
(persists to objectMetadata.color)
- [ ] Verify folder color editing works in the sidebar edit panel
- [ ] Verify views, links, and records do NOT show a color picker in the
sidebar edit panel
- [ ] Run `npx nx typecheck twenty-front` and `npx nx typecheck
twenty-server`
- [ ] Verify the database migrations add `color` to `objectMetadata` and
`type` to `navigationMenuItem`

## Summary
- Removes the `IS_APPLICATION_INSTALLATION_FROM_TARBALL_ENABLED` feature
flag, consolidating tarball-based app installation under the existing
`IS_APPLICATION_ENABLED` flag
- Removes the runtime feature flag check in `runWorkspaceMigration`
resolver (the `@RequireFeatureFlag(IS_APPLICATION_ENABLED)` decorator
already gates this endpoint)
- Cleans up related integration test setup/teardown and mock feature
flag maps
## Test plan
- [ ] Verify tarball-based app installation still works when
`IS_APPLICATION_ENABLED` is true
- [ ] Verify app installation is blocked when `IS_APPLICATION_ENABLED`
is false
- [ ] Run `failing-install-application.integration-spec.ts` to confirm
it passes without the removed flag

## Summary
- The `createOneApplication` GraphQL mutation was removed from the
server during the application architecture refactor (#18432), but the
SDK CLI (`app:dev`, `app:build --sync`) still called it, causing
failures.
- Simplified the SDK to use `syncApplication` (which now internally
creates the `ApplicationEntity` via `ensureApplicationExists`) instead
of a separate create step.
- On first run (clean install), the orchestrator now runs an initial
sync before initializing the file uploader, so file uploads can proceed
(they require the `ApplicationEntity` to exist).
## Test plan
- [x] Typecheck passes for both `twenty-sdk` and `twenty-server`
- [x] `app:dev` tested locally with existing app (finds app, uploads,
syncs)
- [x] `app:dev` tested locally after `app:uninstall` (creates app via
sync, uploads, syncs)
- [x] SDK unit tests pass (23/26 files, 3 pre-existing failures
unrelated)
Made with [Cursor](https://cursor.com)
## Summary
- **Module reorganization**: Moved `ApplicationUpgradeService` and cron
jobs to `application-upgrade/`, `ApplicationSyncService` to
`application-manifest/`, and
`runWorkspaceMigration`/`uninstallApplication` mutations to the manifest
resolver — each module now has a single clear responsibility.
- **Explicit install flow**: Removed implicit `ApplicationEntity`
creation from `ApplicationSyncService`. The install service and dev
resolver now explicitly create the `ApplicationEntity` before syncing.
npm packages are resolved at registration time to extract manifest
metadata (universalIdentifier, name, description, etc.), eliminating the
`reconcileUniversalIdentifier` hack.
- **Better error handling**: Frontend hooks now surface actual server
error messages in snackbars instead of swallowing them. Replaced the
ugly `ConfirmationModal` for transfer ownership with a proper form
modal. Fixed `SettingsAdminTableCard` row height overflow and corrected
the `yarn-engine` asset path.
## Test plan
- [ ] Register an npm package — verify manifest metadata (name,
description, universalIdentifier) is extracted correctly
- [ ] Install a registered npm app on a workspace — verify
ApplicationEntity is created and sync succeeds
- [ ] Test `app:dev` CLI flow — verify local app registration and sync
work
- [ ] Upload a tarball — verify registration and install flow
- [ ] Transfer ownership — verify the new modal UX works
- [ ] Verify error messages appear correctly in snackbars when
operations fail

## PR Description
- Uses `expr-eval` to enable front components (SDK plugins) to define
conditional availability as declarative expressions.
- Moves shared types and constants to `twenty-shared`
- Introduces a `conditionalAvailabilityExpression` field on
`CommandMenuItemEntity`, allowing command menu items to store an
`expr-eval` compatible expression string that is evaluated against a
CommandMenuContext to determine if the item should be shown.
- Creates an esbuild transform plugin
`conditional-availability-transform-plugin` in `twenty-sdk` that
converts TypeScript conditional availability expressions into
`expr-eval` compatible syntax at build time, so SDK developers can write
natural TS expressions that get transformed to evaluable strings.
- Removes deprecated `forceRegisteredActionsByKey` state and its usage.
- Creates `useCommandMenuContext` hook that builds the full
`CommandMenuContext` object from React state, which is then passed to
`useCommandMenuItemFrontComponentActions` for evaluating conditional
availability expressions.
