## 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.
## Summary
- **Fix `createApplicationRegistration` flow**: The server's
`createApplicationRegistration` mutation returns a `clientSecret`, not
`accessToken`/`refreshToken` directly. The SDK now correctly requests
`clientSecret` and immediately performs an OAuth `client_credentials`
exchange to obtain `appAccessToken` and `appRefreshToken`, then stores
them in config.
- **New `exchangeCredentialsForTokens` helper**: Shared by both `dev`
and `dev --once` flows. Takes `clientId` + `clientSecret`, calls
`/oauth/token` with `client_credentials` grant, and persists the
resulting tokens.
- **Bump `twenty-sdk`, `twenty-client-sdk`, `create-twenty-app` to
`1.22.0-canary.2`**
## Context
The `1.22.0-canary.1` SDK release expected
`createApplicationRegistration` to return `accessToken`/`refreshToken`
directly, but the `v1.22.0` server returns `clientSecret`. This caused
`yarn twenty dev` and `yarn twenty dev --once` to fail with "No
registration found" errors.
## Summary
- **SDK (`dev` & `dev --once`)**: After app registration, the CLI now
obtains an `APPLICATION_ACCESS` token via `client_credentials` grant
using the app's own `clientId`/`clientSecret`, and uses that token for
CoreApiClient schema introspection — instead of the user's
`config.accessToken` which returns the full unscoped schema.
- **Config**: `oauthClientSecret` is now persisted alongside
`oauthClientId` in `~/.twenty/config.json` when creating a new app
registration, so subsequent `dev`/`dev --once` runs can obtain fresh app
tokens without re-registration.
- **CI action**: `spawn-twenty-app-dev-test` now outputs a proper
`API_KEY` JWT (signed with the seeded dev workspace secret) instead of
the previous hardcoded `ACCESS` token — giving consumers a real API key
rather than a user session token.
## Motivation
When developing Twenty apps, `yarn twenty dev` was using the CLI user's
OAuth token for GraphQL schema introspection during CoreApiClient
generation. This token (type `ACCESS`) has no `applicationId` claim, so
the server returns the **full workspace schema** — including all objects
— rather than the scoped schema the app should see at runtime (filtered
by `applicationId`).
This caused a discrepancy: the generated CoreApiClient contained fields
the app couldn't actually query at runtime with its `APPLICATION_ACCESS`
token.
By switching to `client_credentials` grant, the SDK now introspects with
the same token type the app will use in production, ensuring the
generated client accurately reflects the app's runtime capabilities.
