Fixes#20193
**Bug Description:**
Previously, workspace member avatars failed to render correctly in table
views and relation chips (such as the Account Owner field). While the
avatar picker dropdown correctly fetched fresh GraphQL data, table views
and chips relied on the cached defaultAvatarUrl or avatarUrl fields,
which were frequently resolving to empty strings or failing to parse
external OAuth URLs correctly.
**Root Cause:**
- Empty String Defaults: Deleting an avatar or failing to retrieve one
defaulted the database state to an empty string ("") instead of null,
which caused frontend image components to break rather than render their
fallback states.
- Missing Permanent URLs: The WorkspaceMemberTranspiler was strictly
expecting internal signed URLs. If an avatar was an external OAuth URL,
it incorrectly returned an empty string, breaking SSO profile pictures.
- Missing Fallbacks: New users lacked a proper Gravatar fallback
assignment upon workspace creation.
**Changes Made:**
- user-workspace.service.ts: Updated the avatar computation logic during
user creation to implement a reliable Gravatar fallback and correctly
set missing avatars to null instead of empty strings. Updated the
storage to use permanent file URLs.
- file-url.service.ts: Implemented a getRawFileUrl method to support
rendering permanent, non-expiring file URLs for avatars.
- workspace-member-transpiler.service.ts: Refactored the URL
transpilation logic to gracefully pass through external OAuth URLs
(e.g., Google/Microsoft profile pictures) instead of stripping them.
- WorkspaceMemberPictureUploader.tsx: Fixed the frontend removal logic
so that deleting a profile picture sets the avatarUrl to null
(consistent with the backend) rather than an empty string.
**Testing:**
- Verified that avatars correctly display in relation chips and table
views.
- Verified that external OAuth avatars load properly.
- Verified that deleting an avatar correctly resets the UI to the
fallback initials component.

Upgraded to Storybook 10. We still use `@storybook/test-runner` for
testing since it appears it'd require more work to move from Jest to
Vitest than I initially anticipated, but I completed this PR to fix
`storybook:serve:dev` - it takes time to load, but it works the way it
used to with Storybook 8.

## Summary
This PR enforces that all custom exceptions must provide a
`userFriendlyMessage`, ensuring end users always see readable error
messages.
## Changes
### Core Changes
- **`CustomException` simplified**: Removed the `ForceFriendlyMessage`
generic parameter - `userFriendlyMessage` is now always required
- **Type safety**: The constructor now requires `{ userFriendlyMessage:
MessageDescriptor }` (no longer optional)
### Updated Files
- **74+ exception classes** updated to provide default user-friendly
messages using Lingui `msg` macro
- Each exception class has a sensible fallback message (e.g., `msg\`An
authentication error occurred.\``)
- Exception classes that had code-specific message maps retain their
behavior
## Benefits
- **Compile-time enforcement**: Forgetting to add a user-friendly
message now causes a TypeScript error
- **Better UX**: End users always see a localized, human-readable error
message
- **Simpler API**: No more boolean generic parameter to think about
## Testing
- `npx nx run twenty-server:typecheck` passes
- `npx nx run twenty-server:lint` passes
<!-- CURSOR_SUMMARY -->
---
> [!NOTE]
> Enforces `userFriendlyMessage` on `CustomException` and updates all
exception classes to supply localized default messages, with
filters/tests adjusted accordingly.
>
> - **Core**:
> - Enforce required `userFriendlyMessage` in `CustomException` (remove
optional generic; constructor now requires `{ userFriendlyMessage:
MessageDescriptor }`).
> - **Exceptions**:
> - Update ~70+ exception classes to set default localized messages via
Lingui `msg` maps and pass them in constructors (e.g., `AuthException`,
`ObjectMetadataException`, `FieldMetadataException`, etc.).
> - Add fallback messages where needed (e.g., `INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR` or
domain-specific defaults).
> - **HTTP/GraphQL Filters**:
> - Ensure fallbacks create `UnknownException` with `msg` for
user-friendly text in REST/GraphQL exception filters.
> - **Tests**:
> - Adjust unit tests to pass `userFriendlyMessage` to exceptions.
> - Update Jest snapshots to include `extensions.userFriendlyMessage` or
message objects where applicable.

# Introduction
related to https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/1833
In this PR we're starting the sync-metadata and standardIds deprecation
by introducing `twenty-standard` application that will regroup every
standard object such as company and opportunities. But also the
`custom-workspace-application` which is an app created at the same time
as a workspace and that will regroup everything configure within the
workspace ( custom objects fields etc )
## What's done
On both new workspace and seeded workspace creation:
- Creating a custom workspace app
- Creating a twenty standard app
- Refactored the seed core schema and workspace creation to be run
within a transaction in order to handle circular dependency foreignkey
requirements ( which is deferred for app toward workspace )
- Updated workspace entity to have a custom workspace relation (
nullable for the moment until we implem an upgrade command to handle
retro comp )
- Integration testing on user, workspace creation deletion and expected
default apps creation
- ~~Soft deleted user on `deleteUser`~~ Done by marie and rebased on it
## What's next
- Update seeder to propagate the `twenty-standard` workspace
`applicationId` to every standard synchronized entities ( cheap and fast
iteration through the about to be deprecated sync-metadata as an easy
way to synchronize standards metadata entities ).
- Update seeder to propagate the `custom-workspace-application`
workspace `applicationId` to anything custom ( `pets` and `rockets` )
- Prepend `custom-workspace-application` `applicationId` to every
metadata API operations ( create a specific cache etc )
- Upgrade command on all existing workspace to create a custom app and
associate its applicationId to any existing custom entities
- Make `universalIdentifier` and `applicationId` required for any
syncable entity
