## Summary - **Config as source of truth**: `~/.twenty/config.json` is now the single source of truth for SDK authentication — env var fallbacks have been removed from the config resolution chain. - **Test instance support**: `twenty server start --test` spins up a dedicated Docker instance on port 2021 with its own config (`config.test.json`), so integration tests don't interfere with the dev environment. - **API key auth for marketplace**: Removed `UserAuthGuard` from `MarketplaceResolver` so API key tokens (workspace-scoped) can call `installMarketplaceApp`. - **CI for example apps**: Added monorepo CI workflows for `hello-world` and `postcard` example apps to catch regressions. - **Simplified CI**: All `ci-create-app-e2e` and example app workflows now use a shared `spawn-twenty-app-dev-test` action (Docker-based) instead of building the server from source. Consolidated auth env vars to `TWENTY_API_URL` + `TWENTY_API_KEY`. - **Template publishing fix**: `create-twenty-app` template now correctly preserves `.github/` and `.gitignore` through npm publish (stored without leading dot, renamed after copy). ## Test plan - [x] CI SDK (lint, typecheck, unit, integration, e2e) — all green - [x] CI Example App Hello World — green - [x] CI Example App Postcard — green - [x] CI Create App E2E minimal — green - [x] CI Front, CI Server, CI Shared — green

Why Twenty
We built Twenty for three reasons:
CRMs are too expensive, and users are trapped. Companies use locked-in customer data to hike prices. It shouldn't be that way.
A fresh start is required to build a better experience. We can learn from past mistakes and craft a cohesive experience inspired by new UX patterns from tools like Notion, Airtable or Linear.
We believe in open-source and community. Hundreds of developers are already building Twenty together. Once we have plugin capabilities, a whole ecosystem will grow around it.
