## Add `runAgent()` to the Logic Function SDK

Lets an app's logic function run one of its own AI agents server-side
and get the result back synchronously — reusing the existing agent
executor instead of a new bespoke transport.

  ### Backend
- New **`runAgent` GraphQL mutation** (metadata schema) in
`ai-agent-execution`, wrapping the existing
`AgentAsyncExecutorService.executeAgent`. Scopes the agent lookup to the
calling
  application and runs it under an application auth context.
- New `@AuthApplication()` param decorator (mirrors `@AuthWorkspace()`)
— first GraphQL resolver authenticated by an **application access
token**.
- Guarded by `WorkspaceAuthGuard` +
`SettingsPermissionGuard(PermissionFlagType.AI)`: the app's role must
grant the `AI` permission flag.

  ### SDK
- `runAgent({ agentUniversalIdentifier, prompt })` posts the mutation to
`/metadata` with the app token via a new runtime GraphQL transport.
Returns `{ result, hasNoMoreAvailableCredits
  }`.
- Refactored the connections helpers onto a shared `postAppEndpoint`
util (removes duplicated transport logic).

  ### Frontend
- App install permission modal now shows an explicit consent line —
_"Run AI agents and bill AI credits to your workspace"_ — when the app's
role requests the `AI` flag.

  ### Docs
- Documented `runAgent` and its `AI` permission-flag requirement in
_Skills & Agents_.
- Fixed outdated role-permission examples in _Roles & Permissions_
(`permissionFlags` → `permissionFlagUniversalIdentifiers`,
`PermissionFlag` → `SystemPermissionFlag`).

  ### Test plan
- [x] SDK unit tests (`run-agent.spec.ts`) — request shape, GraphQL/HTTP
error handling, missing env vars
- [x] `twenty-server`, `twenty-front`, `twenty-shared` typecheck + lint
- [ ] Manual: install an app granting the `AI` flag, call `runAgent()`
from a logic function, confirm the agent runs and credits are billed

Twenty SDK

NPM version License Join the community on Discord

A CLI and SDK to develop, build, and publish applications that extend Twenty CRM.

Quick start

The recommended way to start is with create-twenty-app:

npx create-twenty-app@latest my-twenty-app
cd my-twenty-app
yarn twenty dev

Documentation

Full documentation is available at docs.twenty.com/developers/extend/apps:

  • Getting Started — scaffolding, local server, authentication, dev mode
  • Building Apps — entity definitions, API clients, testing, CLI reference
  • Publishing — deploy, npm publish, marketplace

Manual installation

If you are adding twenty-sdk to an existing project instead of using create-twenty-app:

yarn add twenty-sdk twenty-client-sdk

Then add a twenty script to your package.json:

{
  "scripts": {
    "twenty": "twenty"
  }
}

Run yarn twenty help to see all available commands.

Configuration

The CLI stores credentials per remote in ~/.twenty/config.json. Run yarn twenty remote:add to configure a remote, or yarn twenty remote:list to see existing ones.

Troubleshooting

  • Auth errors: run yarn twenty remote:add to re-authenticate.
  • Typings out of date: restart yarn twenty dev to refresh the client and types.
  • Not seeing changes in dev: make sure dev mode is running (yarn twenty dev).

Contributing

Development mode

npx nx run twenty-sdk:dev

Production build

npx nx run twenty-sdk:build

Running the CLI locally

npx nx run twenty-sdk:start -- <command>
