Centralize system field side effects + search field metadata (#22594)
## Introduction Closes twentyhq/core-team-issues#2635 and twentyhq/core-team-issues#2642 and twentyhq/core-team-issues#2589 Object system fields (`searchVector` + its GIN index + `searchFieldMetadata`, the reserved system fields, default relations) were provisioned through several scattered, path-specific code paths. As a result the **app-manifest sync path** authored objects with an empty/`NULL` `searchVector` and **zero `searchFieldMetadata`**, so app-owned objects shipped a broken generated search column (see #22657). The generation logic also lived partly in imperative services rather than in the metadata side-effect engine, and relied on non-deterministic (`v4`) universal identifiers that `twenty apply` could not converge, destroying manually backfilled rows. This PR centralizes every object-creation system side effect into the **metadata side-effect engine**, extends the engine to keep search metadata consistent on field delete and object relabel, makes the standard app's search identifiers deterministic, and ships upgrade commands to reconcile existing workspaces. ## What changed ### Side effects moved into the metadata side-effect engine New dedicated, self-contained handlers — so every write path (API and app manifest) gets identical results, and side effects never trigger other side effects. **Object create / delete** (`handlers/object-metadata`) * **`objectSystemFieldsOnCreate`** — generates the 7 reserved system fields (`id`, `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, `deletedAt`, `createdBy`, `updatedBy`, `position`). * **`objectSearchVectorOnCreate`** — provisions the full-text search surface as one unit: the `searchVector` `TS_VECTOR` field, its backing GIN index, and the `searchFieldMetadata` row (for searchable objects whose label identifier is a searchable field) that keeps `searchVector` populated instead of `NULL`. * **`objectSystemSideEffectsOnDelete`** — tears the above down on object deletion. **Search-metadata consistency on relabel / field delete** (new — these are what close the manifest-path gaps) * **`objectSearchVectorOnUpdate`** (`handlers/object-metadata`) — when a searchable object is relabeled onto a new searchable field, provisions the `searchFieldMetadata` row that indexes it. Relabeling is **additive**: existing rows (e.g. the provisioned `name` row) are preserved, so the previous label identifier stays searchable. Mirrors the API update path so a manifest re-sync that changes the label identifier reaches search parity. No-ops for junction objects (`id` label identifier) and non-searchable field types. * **`fieldSearchFieldMetadataOnDelete`** (`handlers/field-metadata`) — when a field is deleted, cascade-deletes every `searchFieldMetadata` row that indexes it. `searchFieldMetadata` is excluded from manifest deletion inference, so this explicit cascade is what covers **both the API and manifest paths** (the object-scoped DB cascade only fires on object deletion). Uses the `searchFieldMetadataUniversalIdentifiers` aggregator on the flat field for an O(k) lookup instead of scanning all rows. The **default `name` field and default relations are now caller-provided default fields** (SDK autocomplete on the manifest path, input transpiler on the API path) rather than system side effects — removing duplicate name generation, the imperative `build-default-*-for-custom-object` utilities, and the ad-hoc system-field integrity validator. ### Deterministic identifiers for the standard app The twenty-standard search GIN index and `searchFieldMetadata` now derive deterministic universal identifiers (`getIndexUniversalIdentifier` / `getSearchFieldUniversalIdentifier`) instead of `v4`, so `twenty apply` converges instead of recreating. ### Upgrade commands (`2-20`) to reconcile existing workspaces **Instance commands** (run once per instance; ordered fast → slow → workspace): 1. **`AddIsSystemSideEffectToSearchFieldMetadata`** (fast) — adds the `isSystemSideEffect` column to `core.searchFieldMetadata`. Defaults to `true`, which also correctly backfills every existing row since `searchFieldMetadata` is always system-derived (never user-authored). 2. **`BackfillNameFieldIsSystemSideEffect`** (slow) — re-flags existing `name` fields from `isSystemSideEffect: true` → `false`, since the default `name` field is now a caller-provided default like any other user-owned field (it was provisioned as `true` in 2.15 → 2.19). This is a pure data backfill, so the bulk `UPDATE` lives in `runDataMigration()` rather than `up()` — keeping it out of the fast schema transaction avoids holding an `ACCESS EXCLUSIVE` lock that could stall reads during the deploy. Slow instance commands still run before every workspace command of the version, so the fresh value is in place before the search-reconcile workspace commands recompute the `fieldMetadata` flat-entity cache. Scoping by name alone is safe (no engine-owned field is named `name`); `down()` is best-effort (pre-2.15 `false` rows are indistinguishable from flipped ones). **Workspace commands** (idempotent, dry-run supported): 1. **`reconcile-search-vector-gin-index-universal-identifier`** — re-owns every searchVector GIN index UID to its deterministic value (all applications), then backfills the missing GIN index for installed-app objects. 2. **`reconcile-search-field-metadata`** — re-owns every `searchFieldMetadata` UID (all applications), then backfills the missing rows for installed-app searchable objects. 3. **`rebuild-installed-app-search-vectors`** — rebuilds the `searchVector` column of every installed-app `TS_VECTOR` field, once the index and rows exist. Design notes: * **Re-own is global** (twenty-standard, workspace-custom, installed) — a UID convergence keyed on each row's own application. * **Backfill is installed-app only** — standard/custom objects already have these rows via the manifest funnel. * Re-own runs **before** backfill and is transaction-guarded; a failure aborts that workspace to avoid a unique-identifier collision. ## Tests * Integration: app manifest sync now asserts system fields + searchable objects (searchVector, GIN index, searchFieldMetadata) are created; a new relabel suite drives three manifest syncs and asserts records stay searchable through the old + new label identifiers and lose searchability when a field is removed; removed the obsolete system-fields-integrity suite/snapshots. * Unit: per-handler side-effect specs (including the new `objectSearchVectorOnUpdate` and `fieldSearchFieldMetadataOnDelete` handlers), and per-util specs for the re-own / backfill operation builders and the GIN-index classifier. ## Upgrade / migration notes * Existing workspaces converge on the next upgrade run via the `2-20` instance + workspace commands (idempotent, dry-run supported). * Backfill and rebuild go through the workspace-migration runner (automatic cache invalidation); the re-own step invalidates only the affected flat-entity maps directly. * The cross-version upgrade CI now flushes the cache before running the upgrade, so the new version recomputes every flat-entity map from the database instead of reading blobs the old version serialized in an older shape. ## Follow-up * `object-metadata.service.ts` still carries a `TODO: remove once default view fields move to the metadata side effect engine` — default view fields are the next candidate to move into the engine. * A single manifest sync cannot yet both create a field and relabel the object onto it, because `objectMetadata.update` is ordered before `fieldMetadata.create` in the migration runner. Tracked in twentyhq/core-team-issues#2655; to be fixed in a follow-up. |

SearchVector derivation via migration-scoped index (alt to #2622 __warmedUpCache) (#22389)
## What this is close https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/2622 A **POC / discussion branch** implementing the runner-scoped alternative to the `__warmedUpCache` design in [core-team-issues#2622](https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/2622). Not for merge as-is — meant to diff against that plan. ## Problem `deriveSearchVectorAsExpressionForTsVectorField` scans the entire `flatSearchFieldMetadataMaps` (`Object.values(...).filter(...)`) once per object created in a migration. On install that's `O(objectsCreated × totalSearchFields)` — the quadratic #2622 targets. Only **one** of the three call sites is actually hot: - `create-object` (runner) — global maps, called per created object → the quadratic - export DDL — maps already built **per object** (O(k)) - `update-field` rebuild — one field, gated on `rebuildSearchVector` ## Approach Instead of a private `__warmedUpCache` side-channel on `FlatEntityMaps<T>` + drain-on-hydration, this keeps the index in the **consumer**: 1. `derive` now takes `targetSearchFieldMetadatas` (already scoped to the tsVector field) instead of scanning the map itself. 2. The runner builds a `Map<tsVectorFieldMetadataId, searchFields[]>` **once per migration**, lazily, and threads it through the action context. Safe because `searchFieldMetadata` creates are ordered before `objectMetadata` creates (`computeOrderedMigrationActions`), so the map is complete on first use. → `O(totalSearchFields)`. 3. `getTargetSearchFieldMetadatasForTsVectorField` (O(total) filter) stays as the fallback for the one-off callers (export, field-update) and when the accessor isn't provided. ## Why this over `__warmedUpCache` - **No `FlatEntityMaps<T>` type widening**, no convention-only privacy, no id/universalIdentifier drain to keep in sync. - **No referential-integrity obligation.** The index only ever contains entities present in the map, so the "search field created-then-deleted before its object hydrates" case (deferred as an edge in #2622) can't put a stale id into an aggregator and crash `derive` via the `-orThrow` lookup. - **One `derive` path**, not "aggregator + direct-filter fallback for export". - Blast radius: ~220 lines, mostly a new util + test. ## Benchmark (micro, isolated function) Median of 7 trials, 10 search fields per object, running the real shipped utils — old = `getTargetSearchFieldMetadatasForTsVectorField` once per object (identical to the old inline scan), new = `buildSearchFieldMetadatasByTsVectorFieldId` once + N lookups (both assert they resolve the same fields): | objects | total search fields | old (scan/obj) | new (index once) | speedup | |--------:|--------------------:|---------------:|-----------------:|--------:| | 50 | 500 | 2.08 ms | 0.06 ms | 33× | | 100 | 1,000 | 9.26 ms | 0.12 ms | 77× | | 200 | 2,000 | 36.2 ms | 0.23 ms | 160× | | 400 | 4,000 | 151 ms | 0.40 ms | 379× | | 800 | 8,000 | 701 ms | 0.92 ms | 766× | Confirms the old path is quadratic (~4× per doubling of object count) and the new path is linear (sub-ms throughout). **Caveats — read these before trusting the speedup:** - This is the **isolated derivation function**, no DB / DDL / inserts. In a real `create-object` action the derive is a small fraction of per-action cost, so the end-to-end win is far smaller than the ratios above. - A default workspace has ~20–30 objects, where the **old** code already costs only ~1–2 ms total across the whole install. The quadratic only becomes material (>50 ms, the runner's slow-action threshold) around **200–400 objects**. - The measurement that should actually gate this — `[install-perf] create:objectMetadata` on a real install against a real DB with a few hundred objects — has **not** been run yet. The micro-benchmark bounds the upside and locates the knee of the curve; it does not prove end-to-end payoff. ## Not done on purpose - **No end-to-end benchmark yet** — step 0 should still be measuring `[install-perf] create:objectMetadata` on a real large install to confirm the quadratic is worth removing at all. - Relies on the ordering invariant (commented at the build site). The fully self-contained variant is to put the object's search fields on `FlatCreateObjectAction` (builder change) — deliberately left out to keep this runner-scoped. ## Checks `nx typecheck twenty-server`, `nx lint:diff-with-main twenty-server`, new util spec + existing `generate-workspace-schema-ddl` spec all green. |

Deprecate asExpression from field metadata search_vector (#22287)
## Summary Fully deprecates the cached `asExpression` / `generatedType` settings on `TS_VECTOR` (searchVector) fields. Previously the generated-column expression was stored in `FieldMetadataSettings` and kept in sync via imperative recompute side-effects. It is now **derived at DDL time** from the `searchFieldMetadata` rows that describe which fields feed the search vector, making `searchFieldMetadata` the single source of truth and removing a whole class of cache-drift bugs. This is delivered across the milestones tracked in #2587 and coordinates with the frontend migration (#1428). ## Why - The searchVector expression lived in two places (stored `settings.asExpression` + the actual generated column), kept consistent by bespoke side-effects (`recompute-search-vector-on-field-rename`, label-identifier recompute, etc.). - The frontend reconstructed the searchable-fields list by **regex-parsing** the stored `asExpression`. - Both are brittle. Deriving the expression from `searchFieldMetadata` rows at build/run time removes the cache and the parsing. ## What changed ### Server - data model & derivation - Introduce the `tsVectorFieldMetadata` relation on `searchFieldMetadata` (`tsVectorFieldMetadataId` / universal identifier) linking each searchable-field row to its target `TS_VECTOR` field. - New runtime derivation `deriveSearchVectorAsExpressionForTsVectorField` (`flat-search-field-metadata/utils/...`) used by the create-object and update-field handlers to generate the column expression from `searchFieldMetadata` rows. - Remove `asExpression` / `generatedType` from stored settings: `FieldMetadataSettings.TS_VECTOR` is now `null`; the column builder (`generate-column-definitions.util.ts`) hardcodes `generatedType: 'STORED'` and requires the derived expression. - Delete the imperative recompute side-effects and the `compute-search-vector-universal-settings-from-object-manifest` path; drop the `settings` block from all 28 standard `compute-*-standard-flat-field-metadata` utils. ### Server - migration runner - New `rebuildSearchVector` marker on `update-field` actions: the orchestrator synthesizes targeted column rebuilds (`compute-search-vector-rebuild-target-universal-identifiers.util.ts` + the deprioritize aggregator) only when a searchFieldMetadata change or indexed-field rename actually requires it - instead of rebuilding on every settings touch. - Deferrable FKs + in-flight ID resolution so a `searchFieldMetadata` row and its `TS_VECTOR` field can be created in the same transaction (deterministic UUIDs). ### Frontend (contract change, #1428) - New `SearchFieldMetadataDTO` + dataloader exposing `searchFieldMetadataList` on object metadata. - `SettingsObjectSearchSection` now reads `objectMetadataItem.searchFieldMetadatas` instead of parsing `asExpression`; new `SearchFieldMetadataItem` type, fragment, and mapping updates. ### Upgrade commands (2.18) - `2-18-instance-command-fast-...-add-ts-vector-field-metadata-id-to-search-field-metadata` - `2-18-instance-command-fast-...-make-search-field-metadata-fks-deferrable` - `2-18-instance-command-slow-...-backfill-ts-vector-field-metadata-id-on-search-field-metadata` (These were relocated from 2.16 to 2.18 and re-timestamped into an ordered block - add column -> make FK deferrable -> backfill data - since 2.16/2.17 are released.) ### Tests - Updated search-vector side-effect integration specs to assert behavior (search works) rather than the now-removed `asExpression`; removed the obsolete expression-validation specs; refreshed the application-sync snapshot (`universalSettings: null`). ## Upgrade / compatibility notes - Existing workspaces keep their stored `settings` until a later cleanup; nothing reads it anymore. The new derivation drives all DDL going forward. - Schema changes are gated behind the 2.18 instance commands above. ## Known follow-up (separate PR) https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/2620 - The column rebuild (`DROP`/`ADD` of the `searchVector` STORED column) cascade-drops its GIN index and does not recreate it - a pre-existing regression on `main` inherited here. A follow-up PR will fix the rebuild handler to recreate the GIN index and add a 2.18 workspace command to recompute every search vector + strip the deprecated settings. (Planned.) ## Test plan - [ ] `npx nx typecheck twenty-server` / `twenty-front` - [ ] `npx nx lint:diff-with-main twenty-server` / `twenty-front` - [ ] Server integration: create/update/delete field, rename indexed field, update object - search returns expected records - [ ] Run the 2.18 instance commands on a seeded DB; verify `tsVectorFieldMetadataId` backfilled and FKs deferrable - [ ] Frontend: object Search settings tab lists the correct searchable fields (no `asExpression` parsing) close https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/2587 <!-- This is an auto-generated description by cubic. --> <a href="https://cubic.dev/pr/twentyhq/twenty/pull/22287?utm_source=github" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-no-image-dialog="true"><picture><source media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)" srcset="https://www.cubic.dev/buttons/review-in-cubic-dark.svg"><source media="(prefers-color-scheme: light)" srcset="https://www.cubic.dev/buttons/review-in-cubic-light.svg"><img alt="Review in cubic" src="https://www.cubic.dev/buttons/review-in-cubic-dark.svg"></picture></a> <!-- End of auto-generated description by cubic. --> |

Wire up search field metadata (#21964)
## Part 1 - Exact scope of the current PR (#21964) close https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/2586 This PR introduces `searchFieldMetadata` as a first-class flat metadata entity and migrates the existing search surface onto it, with **no change to which records are searchable** (ISO with `main`). In scope (what the PR does): - New flat entity `searchFieldMetadata` (universalIdentifier, applicationId, **`position`**, maps, conversions), registered in the central flat-entity constants and the migration build orchestrator. - `searchVector.asExpression` is **derived server-side** from `searchFieldMetadata` rows (validated by `isSafeTsVectorExpression`); never trusted from client input. - **Derivation order is deterministic, driven by each row's `position`** ([compute-search-vector-as-expression-from-search-field-metadatas.util.ts](packages/twenty-server/src/engine/metadata-modules/flat-search-field-metadata/utils/compute-search-vector-as-expression-from-search-field-metadatas.util.ts)), replacing the previous non-deterministic `(createdAt, id)` sort. That sort collapsed to random UUIDs for standard fields (same `createdAt`), so any rename/relabel rewrote the `STORED` generated column to a logically-identical-but-textually-different expression and produced a permanent per-workspace diff vs the standard definition. Ordering now equals provisioning order; ties break on `universalIdentifier`. - Provisioning at object creation mirrors the existing surface exactly **and seeds `position`**: - custom objects -> the `name` field only, at `position: 0` ([build-default-search-field-metadatas-for-custom-object.util.ts](packages/twenty-server/src/engine/metadata-modules/object-metadata/utils/build-default-search-field-metadatas-for-custom-object.util.ts)) - standard objects -> their curated `SEARCH_FIELDS_FOR_*` sets, `position` = the curated index - Backfill (instance + workspace commands in `2-16`) provisions rows for existing workspaces with the same surface **and the same positions** (standard from the curated standard maps, custom `name` = `0`), scoped to the workspace's own custom application ([build-search-field-metadata-backfill-operations.util.ts](packages/twenty-server/src/database/commands/upgrade-version-command/2-16/utils/build-search-field-metadata-backfill-operations.util.ts)). The `position` column is added in the same `2-16` fast instance command as `universalIdentifier`/`applicationId`. - Field rename of an already-indexed field recomputes `asExpression` (positions preserved, so order is stable) ([recompute-search-vector-on-field-rename.util.ts](packages/twenty-server/src/engine/metadata-modules/flat-field-metadata/utils/recompute-search-vector-on-field-rename.util.ts)). - Field delete drops the matching row(s) and recomputes; remaining rows keep their relative order (no renumber) ([from-delete-field-input-to-flat-field-metadatas-to-delete.util.ts](packages/twenty-server/src/engine/metadata-modules/flat-field-metadata/utils/from-delete-field-input-to-flat-field-metadatas-to-delete.util.ts)). - Object relabel is **additive** and ISO/regression-fix only: it indexes the new label identifier **appended last (`position = max(existing) + 1`)** without dropping `name` ([recompute-search-vector-on-label-identifier-update.util.ts](packages/twenty-server/src/engine/metadata-modules/flat-object-metadata/utils/recompute-search-vector-on-label-identifier-update.util.ts)). This is a deliberate, temporary bridge. Explicitly OUT of scope (deferred): - No API to edit `searchFieldMetadata` (no user-facing search-field configuration, including `position` — it is internal and only written by provisioning/backfill/recompute). - No auto-indexing of arbitrary searchable fields. Creating a custom TEXT/EMAILS/etc. field does NOT add it to search (the `computeSearchFieldMetadataCreationForFields` behavior was removed in `e6820ad`). - No field-type-transition handling (field type is immutable - not in `FLAT_FIELD_METADATA_EDITABLE_PROPERTIES`, so that path was dead code). - No `position` validation (uniqueness/range) and no multi-vector / per-field `weight` config — deferred to the configurable-search follow-up (#1428). Net: `searchFieldMetadata` becomes the source of truth for the *same* surface as `main`. The only intentional divergences from `main` are "relabel preserves `name`" (additive) and the deterministic `position`-ordered `asExpression` (a correctness/perf fix that is byte-identical to provisioning order, so it does not change the searchable surface). --------- Co-authored-by: Félix Malfait <felix@twenty.com> |
