Félix Malfait 663ef332ad feat(auth): resume workspace selection on /welcome with valid tokenPair cookie (#20575)
## Summary

After a user completes a multi-workspace social-SSO sign-in,
[auth.service.ts:988-1011](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/blob/main/packages/twenty-server/src/engine/core-modules/auth/services/auth.service.ts#L988-L1011)
issues a **workspace-agnostic** access + refresh token pair and lands
them on `app.twenty.com/welcome?tokenPair=…`.
[SignInUpGlobalScopeFormEffect.tsx](packages/twenty-front/src/modules/auth/sign-in-up/components/internal/SignInUpGlobalScopeFormEffect.tsx)
reads the URL param, writes the cookie, pushes them to
`SignInUpStep.WorkspaceSelection`.

The problem: if the user revisits `app.twenty.com/welcome` later (e.g.
ChatGPT pings `/authorize` and the global page-change effect redirects
them to `/welcome` with `returnToPath=/authorize?…`), the existing
branch is a no-op — the URL param is gone. The user sees the regular
email/SSO form and has to re-authenticate, even though the
workspace-agnostic cookie is still valid.

This PR adds a second branch in the same `useEffect` that handles the
"valid cookie, no URL param" case:

```ts
if (signInUpStep !== SignInUpStep.Init) return;
if (!hasAccessTokenPair) return;
loadCurrentUser();
setSignInUpStep(SignInUpStep.WorkspaceSelection);
```

Single `useEffect`, no `useRef`, no async then/catch. The synchronous
`setSignInUpStep(WorkspaceSelection)` is the gate — once the step
transitions, subsequent effect runs early-return. Mirrors the existing
URL-param branch's pattern exactly.

If the cookie is stale, `loadCurrentUser` triggers Apollo's renewal
middleware. Renewal of a workspace-agnostic refresh token is supported
end-to-end (verified in audit, see below) — if it succeeds the user sees
their workspaces; if both tokens are expired, `onUnauthenticatedError`
clears the cookie and the next render lands them on the regular sign-in
form. Same fallback as if the cookie had never been there.

## Behavior matrix

| State on /welcome mount | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| No tokenPair anywhere | Show sign-in form | Show sign-in form |
| tokenPair in URL (just bounced from SSO) | Set tokens →
WorkspaceSelection | (unchanged) Set tokens → WorkspaceSelection |
| tokenPair in cookie, access valid | Show sign-in form  | **→
WorkspaceSelection ✓** |
| tokenPair in cookie, access expired, refresh valid | Show sign-in form
(Apollo eventually 401s on a query) | Renewal succeeds silently →
WorkspaceSelection ✓ |
| tokenPair in cookie, both expired | Show sign-in form |
`onUnauthenticatedError` clears cookie → fall back to sign-in form |

## Workspace-agnostic renewal: confirmed working end-to-end

Audit summary:
- **Refresh token carries the type**:
[refresh-token.service.ts:104](packages/twenty-server/src/engine/core-modules/auth/token/services/refresh-token.service.ts)
preserves `targetedTokenType` in the JWT payload and returns it from
`verifyRefreshToken`.
- **Renewal branches on type**
([renew-token.service.ts:70-87](packages/twenty-server/src/engine/core-modules/auth/token/services/renew-token.service.ts)):
  ```ts
  const accessToken =
    isDefined(authProvider) &&
    targetedTokenType === JwtTokenTypeEnum.WORKSPACE_AGNOSTIC &&
    !isDefined(workspaceId)
? await
this.workspaceAgnosticTokenService.generateWorkspaceAgnosticToken({...})
      : await this.accessTokenService.generateAccessToken({...});
  ```
  Renewed refresh token preserves `targetedTokenType` (line 93).
- **Resolver is workspace-agnostic**: `@UseGuards(PublicEndpointGuard,
NoPermissionGuard)` on `renewToken`
([auth.resolver.ts:796-804](packages/twenty-server/src/engine/core-modules/auth/auth.resolver.ts))
— no `@AuthWorkspace()` requirement, callable from `app.twenty.com`.
- **Frontend middleware is type-agnostic**:
[apollo.factory.ts:180-209](packages/twenty-front/src/modules/apollo/services/apollo.factory.ts)
just passes the refresh token blob.

Net: no backend change needed. The full workspace-agnostic lifecycle
(issue → cookie → renew → re-issue) already works.

## Test plan

- [x] `npx oxlint` + `prettier --check` — clean.
- [x] `npx nx typecheck twenty-front` — clean.
- [ ] Manual: complete one full SSO flow ending on a workspace
subdomain. Visit `https://app.twenty.com/welcome` directly — expect the
workspace picker, not the sign-in form.
- [ ] Manual: same but with tokenPair cookie cleared — expect the
regular sign-in form (no regression).
- [ ] Manual: sign-out from a workspace, then visit
`app.twenty.com/welcome` — expect the regular form (sign-out clears the
cookie via full page reload).
- [ ] Manual: stale/expired tokenPair cookie — Apollo renewal kicks in
transparently; if renewal fails, regular form (no infinite loop, no
crash).
- [ ] Manual: pair with #20572 — visit `app.twenty.com/authorize?…` with
a stale workspace-agnostic cookie. Expected chain: `/authorize` renders
→ `PageChangeEffect` redirects to `/welcome?returnToPath=/authorize?…` →
this effect lands the user on WorkspaceSelection → picking a workspace
bounces to `<workspace>/authorize?…` where consent renders.

## Out of scope

- Fixing `lastAuthenticatedWorkspaceDomain` for custom-domain users
(separate cookie-scoping issue, tracked separately).

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:

npx create-twenty-app my-app

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 deploy

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

Self-hosting

Run Twenty on your own infrastructure with Docker Compose, or contribute locally via the local setup guide.
