## Summary
- The `ci-ai-catalog-sync` cron workflow was failing because the
`ai:sync-models-dev` NestJS command bootstraps the full app, which tries
to connect to PostgreSQL — unavailable in CI.
- Converted the sync logic to a standalone `ts-node` script
(`scripts/ai-sync-models-dev.ts`) that runs without NestJS, eliminating
the database dependency.
- Removed the `Build twenty-server` step from the workflow since it's no
longer needed, making the job faster.
## Test plan
- [x] Verified the standalone script runs successfully locally via `npx
nx run twenty-server:ts-node-no-deps-transpile-only --
./scripts/ai-sync-models-dev.ts`
- [x] Verified `--dry-run` flag works correctly
- [x] Verified the output `ai-providers.json` is correctly written with
valid JSON (135 models across 5 providers)
- [x] Verified the script passes linting with zero errors
- [ ] CI should pass without requiring a database service
