## Summary
Introduces a dedicated **metadata** mutation to update **standard
(non-custom)** workspace member settings, moves profile-related UI to
use it, and aligns **workspace member** record permissions with the rest
of the CRM so users cannot escalate visibility via RLS by editing their
own member record.
## Product behaviour
### Profile and appearance (standard fields)
- Users can still update **their own** standard workspace member fields
that the product exposes in **Settings / Profile** (e.g. name, locale,
color scheme, avatar flow) via the new
**`updateWorkspaceMemberSettings`** mutation.
- The mutation returns a **boolean**; the app **merges** the updated
fields into local state so the UI stays in sync without refetching the
full workspace member record.
- **Locale** changes also keep **`userWorkspace`** in sync when a locale
is present in the payload (including from the workspace `updateOne` path
when applicable).
### Custom fields on workspace members
- The dedicated metadata mutation **rejects** any **custom** workspace
member field (and unknown keys). Those updates must go through the
normal **object** `updateOne` pipeline, which is subject to **object-
and field-level** permissions like other records. But since we don't
have object- and field-level permission configuration for system objects
yet, this permission is derived from Workspace member settings
permission.
- **Workspace member** is no longer exempt from ORM permission
validation for updates merely because it is a **system** object. Users
who **do not** have workspace member access (e.g. no **Workspace
members** settings permission and no equivalent broad settings access on
the role) **cannot** use `updateOne` on `workspaceMember` to change
**custom** (or other) fields on their own row—even though that row is
used for RLS predicates.
- This closes a path where someone could widen what they can see by
writing to fields that drive row-level rules.
### Who can change another member
- Updating **another** user’s workspace member still requires
**Workspace members** (or equivalent) settings permission, consistent
with admin tooling.
Insert operations blocked by field-level update permissions on
non-editable fields
The insert code path in permissions.utils.ts fell through to the update
case (no break), causing validateUpdateFieldPermissionOrThrow to reject
inserts when any field had "Edit disabled" which could conflict with RLS
predicates (used for insertion of new records)
Fixes https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/issues/19201
We will keep checking update permissions for insertion (until we decide
to have a separate permission flag for insertion) but to fix the issue
we will skip this part if it conflicts with an RLS predicate
# Introduction
In preparation of the workspace agnostic builder, we're migrating
`FlatEntityMaps` to be universal identifier oriented and based
As in the builder context there're won't be any ids at all
Please also note that the FlatEntity is a UniversalFlatEntity superset
From
```ts
import { type SyncableFlatEntity } from 'src/engine/metadata-modules/flat-entity/types/flat-entity-from.type';
export type FlatEntityMaps<T extends SyncableFlatEntity> = {
byId: Partial<Record<string, T>>;
idByUniversalIdentifier: Partial<Record<string, string>>;
universalIdentifiersByApplicationId: Partial<Record<string, string[]>>;
};
```
To
```ts
export type FlatEntityMaps<
T extends SyncableFlatEntity | UniversalSyncableFlatEntity,
> = {
byUniversalIdentifier: Partial<Record<string, T>>;
universalIdentifierById: Partial<Record<string, string>>;
universalIdentifiersByApplicationId: Partial<Record<string, string[]>>; // this might make more sense to be migrated to universalIdentifiersByApplicationUniversalIdentifier but it's the main topic of this PR
};
```
## Low level maps tools
Had to refactor find | create | delete | replace | find-many | get-sub
tools ( through mutations and or throw equivalent )
## Context
Deprecating the old objectMetadataMap type in favour of split flat
entities to match with our new caching.
In the long run, trying to achieve:
- Better performance through caching
- Consistent data access patterns across the codebase
- Reduced database queries
Now that everything is based on flat entities, which are cached, we can
finish the refactoring of workspace context cache which should already
improve performances.
Then the last step will be to consume that new cache in the new global
datasource to get rid of the many workspace datasources stored in the
server
Implements permission intersection (AND logic) to prevent permission
escalation when agents act on behalf of users.
### Changes:
- **Permission Intersection**: Operations requiring both user AND agent
permissions
- **RoleContext Type**: Unified type supporting single `roleId` or
multiple `roleIds` for intersection
- **CRUD Services**: Updated to accept `roleContext` for granular
permission control
- **Agent Integration**: Chat agents now use user + agent role
intersection for all operations
- **ORM Layer**: Enhanced `getRepository` to support multi-role
permission checks
### Related:
- Part 2 of ["Acting on behalf of user" concept

In this PR
1. Fix delete and soft-delete repository methods for repositories where
permission checks are NOT bypassed: they need to have a selection of
columns to return by default. To match what we did for insert I set it
to `'*'` by default. But I feel this may be bug prone as developers will
not necessarily think to fill the right values in. Maybe we should
change the api to use selectable fields by default. @charlesBochet
2. Add field permission seeds and enable field permission feature flag
in dev
Fixes https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/1262
In this PR we add the update permission check layer by
- for the graphql api: extracting columns to update from the
expressionMap
- for rest api: .save() is used so we need to add the permission layer
to .save directly. We also take advantage of this PR to filter out
non-readable fields from save response (other save returns the whole
entity) - this was planned in
https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/1216
The current solution does not work with rest api depth 2 queries, but
this seem to already not work on main (for timeout reasons though, so
different). I offer to create a ticket to fix it altogether later.
In this PR, behind a feature flag, we add a permission layer check based
on the read permission.
It is done by computing a map of an object's fields, where keys are the
column names and values the fieldMetadata id, making them comparable to
the restricted fields ids list stored in the permission cache.
For mutations (create, update, delete, destroy), we need to check the
read permission on the returned field, as they may differ from the
updated field. The write field permission will be tackled in a different
PR.

Issue:
when you have a variable `toto` which is: `Record<string, MyType>` and
you do toto['xxx'], this will be typed as `MyType` instead of `MyType |
undefined`
Solutions:
- activate `noUncheckedIndexedAccess` check in tsconfig, this is the
preferred solution but will take time to get there (this raises 600+
errors)
- use a Map: cf https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/13125/files
- set the type to Partial<Record<string, MyType>>. Drawback is that when
you do Object.values(toto), you'll get `Array<MyType | undefined>`.
Hence why we have to filter these behind

## Context
- Introduced objectPermissions in currentUserWorkspace which uses role
permissions from cache so we can fetch granular permissions from the API
- Refactored cached role permissions to map permissions with object
metadata id instead of object metadata name singular to be more flexible

Next steps: Use the updated API in the FE to fetch granular permissions
and update useHasObjectReadOnlyPermission hook
First and main step of
https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/747
We are implementing a permission check layer in our custom
WorkspaceEntityManager by overriding all the db-executing methods (this
PR only overrides some as a POC, the rest will be done in the next PR).
Our custom repositories call entity managers under the hood to interact
with the db so this solves the repositories case too.
This is still behind the feature flag IsPermissionsV2Enabled.
In the next PR
- finish overriding all the methods required in WorkspaceEntityManager
- add tests
