## 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 entire `modules/favorites/` directory** (~66 files,
~5000 lines deleted) — components, hooks, states, types, utils, tests,
and the favorite-folder-picker sub-module
- **Eliminates the dual-write pattern** where creating a favorite also
created a NavigationMenuItem — all consumers now use
`useCreateNavigationMenuItem` directly
- **Removes `IS_NAVIGATION_MENU_ITEM_EDITING_ENABLED` feature flag
checks** from ~12 files, always taking the NavigationMenuItem code path
- **Cleans up backend dual-writes** in `object-metadata.service.ts` and
`twenty-standard-application.service.ts` that were creating Favorite
records alongside NavigationMenuItems
- **Updates prefetch system** to only load NavigationMenuItems (removes
favorites prefetch effects and states)
- **Cleans up test infrastructure** — updates Storybook decorators, mock
data, and graphql mocks to remove favorites references
### What was intentionally kept
- **Backend entity definitions** (`FavoriteWorkspaceEntity`,
`FavoriteFolderWorkspaceEntity`) — these define the database schema and
need a proper database migration to remove
- **Cascade deletion listeners** — still needed to clean up existing
Favorite data in workspaces that haven't been fully migrated
- **v1.18 migration commands** — needed for workspaces upgrading from
older versions

## Summary
Removes the `recoil` dependency entirely from `package.json` and
`twenty-front/package.json`, completing the migration to Jotai as the
sole state management library.
Removes all Recoil infrastructure: `RecoilRoot` wrapper from `App.tsx`
and test decorators, `RecoilDebugObserver`, Recoil-specific ESLint rules
(`use-getLoadable-and-getValue-to-get-atoms`,
`useRecoilCallback-has-dependency-array`), and legacy Recoil utility
hooks/types (`useRecoilComponentState`, `useRecoilComponentValue`,
`createComponentState`, `createFamilyState`, `getSnapshotValue`,
`cookieStorageEffect`, `localStorageEffect`, etc.).
Renames all `V2`-suffixed Jotai state files and types to their canonical
names (e.g., `ComponentStateV2` -> `ComponentState`,
`agentChatInputStateV2` -> `agentChatInputState`, `SelectorCallbacksV2`
-> `SelectorCallbacks`), and removes the now-redundant V1 counterparts.
Updates ~433 files across the codebase to use the renamed Jotai imports,
remove Recoil imports, and clean up test wrappers (`RecoilRootDecorator`
-> `JotaiRootDecorator`).
## Description
- Add `isHeadless` field to `FrontComponent` entity so front components
can run without rendering UI in the command menu
- Introduce headless front component mounting logic:
`HeadlessFrontComponentMountRoot` at the application root,
`useMountHeadlessFrontComponent`, and `useUnmountHeadlessFrontComponent`
hooks to mount/unmount headless components
- Expand the SDK with new action components (`Action`, `ActionLink`,
`ActionOpenSidePanelPage`) and host communication functions
(`openSidePanelPage`, `unmountFrontComponent`)
- Move `CommandMenuPages` type to twenty-shared so the SDK can reference
it for side panel navigation

## Implement Navigation Menu Items Frontend
Implements the frontend for navigation menu items, the new system
replacing favorites.
### Changes
- Added GraphQL fragments and queries for navigation menu items
- Added hooks for managing navigation menu items (create, update,
delete, sorting, filtering)
- Updated components to use navigation menu items instead of favorites
- Added test coverage for utility functions
### Migration Note
The favorites and navigation menu item modules currently exist in
parallel. The favorites code will be removed once all data has been
migrated to navigation menu items.
<!-- CURSOR_SUMMARY -->
---
> [!NOTE]
> Replaces Favorites with feature-flagged `NavigationMenuItem` across
frontend and backend, while keeping Favorites as fallback until
migration completes.
>
> - UI: new `navigation-menu-item` components (folders, orphan items,
drag provider/droppable, icons, skeleton), dispatcher components to
switch from Favorites, and updated “Add to favorites” action to create
`NavigationMenuItem` when `IS_NAVIGATION_MENU_ITEM_ENABLED`
> - DnD: shared `validateAndExtractFolderId` and droppable id utils
moved to `ui/layout/draggable-list`; favorites DnD updated to use shared
utils
> - GraphQL (client): add fragments, queries, mutations, hooks
(create/update/delete/find), and generated types; added
`RecordIdentifier` and `targetRecordIdentifier` on `NavigationMenuItem`
> - Prefetch: new prefetch state/effect for navigation menu items; skip
favorites prefetch when flag enabled
> - Backend: add DTOs (`NavigationMenuItem`, `RecordIdentifier`),
resolver `targetRecordIdentifier` field, service logic to fetch record
identifiers with permission-aware access and image signing,
`getRecordImageIdentifier` util, entity relation to `view`, and
migration adding FK on `viewId`
> - Feature flags & seeding: add `IS_NAVIGATION_MENU_ITEM_ENABLED` to
enums, dev seeder enables it; standard app seeds workspace navigation
menu items instead of favorites when flag on
> - Tests: add unit tests for sorting/labels/folder id and related utils
