Paul Rastoin 25d20731ac Include root cause errors in workspace migration runner exception message (#23416)
closes https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/2733

```diff
- "message": "Migration action 'create' for 'index' (universalIdentifier: 67c6811e-...) failed"
+ "message": "Migration action 'create' for 'index' (universalIdentifier: 67c6811e-...) failed: [workspaceSchema] could not create unique index "IDX_UNIQUE_85951922a2..." (pg code: 23505, detail: Key ("externalId")=(DUPLICATED-VALUE) is duplicated.)"
```

## Problem

When a workspace migration action fails, the `EXECUTION_FAILED`
exception message only states which action failed:

```
Migration action 'create' for 'index' (universalIdentifier: 9e20a0f6-7a18-51c5-a422-5dc4dbd1d972) failed
```

The underlying errors (`metadata`, `workspaceSchema`,
`actionTranspilation`) are attached to the exception instance but
dropped by most surfaces: the SDK CLI only prints `errors[0].message`,
server logs only log `error.message`, and the REST/GraphQL paths lose
the postgres driver details. Debugging a failed app install (like the
stale index universalIdentifier case in the issue) requires guessing.

## Change

- New `formatWorkspaceMigrationRunnerExecutionErrors` util that builds a
compact one-line summary of the underlying execution errors, including
the postgres error code and `detail` for `QueryFailedError`, capped at
1500 chars.
- The `EXECUTION_FAILED` exception message now appends that summary:

```
Migration action 'create' for 'index' (universalIdentifier: 9e20a0f6-...) failed: [workspaceSchema] relation "IDX_..." already exists (pg code: 42P07)
```

Since every surface (CLI, server logs, Sentry, REST, GraphQL) shows
`error.message`, the root cause now propagates everywhere without
touching those surfaces.

- Since actions run inside a single transaction, when one branch fails
with `25P02 current transaction is aborted` (collateral of the other
branch's statement aborting the transaction), the summary keeps only the
real root cause. A lone 25P02 error is still shown.

## Notes

- The SDK's `getSyncErrorRecoveryHint` matching (`/migration action .*
failed/`) still works with the suffixed format.
- Commit-time failures from `DEFERRABLE INITIALLY DEFERRED` FK
constraints still bypass this path (wrapped as `INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR`
with no action attribution) and are left as a follow-up.

## Tests

- New spec for the formatter util (labels, pg code/detail, 25P02
demotion, truncation).
- Extended `workspace-migration-runner.exception.spec.ts` with a
root-cause message assertion.
- Updated `format-upgrade-error-for-storage` snapshots (first line now
carries the enriched message).

Installation

Cloud

The fastest way to get started. Sign up at twenty.com and spin up a workspace in under a minute, with no infrastructure to manage and always up to date.

Build an app

Scaffold a new app with the Twenty CLI:

Define objects, fields, and views as code:

import { defineObject, FieldType } from 'twenty-sdk/define';

export default defineObject({
  nameSingular: 'deal',
  namePlural: 'deals',
  labelSingular: 'Deal',
  labelPlural: 'Deals',
  fields: [
    { name: 'name', label: 'Name', type: FieldType.TEXT },
    { name: 'amount', label: 'Amount', type: FieldType.CURRENCY },
    { name: 'closeDate', label: 'Close Date', type: FieldType.DATE_TIME },
  ],
});

Then ship it to your workspace:

npx twenty app:publish --private

See the app development guide for objects, views, agents, and logic functions.
