* fix(knowledge): purge trashed Google Sheets tabs on a normal sync Trashing a spreadsheet made listDocuments return an empty listing, but the sync engine's zero-document guard skips deletion reconciliation whenever a listing comes back empty and documents already exist — it can't tell a genuinely empty source apart from a provider outage. For a single-spreadsheet connector, trashing its one source item empties the entire listing, so the guard always fired and the stale tabs never got cleaned up on a normal sync, contradicting the documented behavior. Add shouldSkipEmptyListing, mirroring shouldReconcileDeletions: a connector can now set syncContext.sourceConfirmedEmpty when it has positively confirmed the empty result against the source (not merely inferred it from an empty listing page), letting reconciliation proceed. The Google Sheets connector sets this flag when it confirms the spreadsheet is trashed via a direct Drive metadata lookup. No other connector sets it, so this doesn't change behavior anywhere else. * fix(knowledge): let sourceConfirmedEmpty also bypass the mass-deletion safety threshold The zero-document guard bypass alone wasn't enough: for a trashed spreadsheet with more than 5 tabs, reconciliation would proceed but the separate mass-deletion ratio guard (>50% deleted, >5 docs) still blocked the actual delete on a normal sync, requiring a forced full resync anyway. Extracted the ratio guard into exceedsDeletionSafetyThreshold, mirroring shouldSkipEmptyListing, so a connector's positive source confirmation bypasses both guards consistently.
A workspace to build, deploy and manage AI agents and workflows.
Quickstart
Cloud-hosted: sim.ai
Self-hosted
npx simstudio
Docker must be installed and running. Use -p, --port <port> to run Sim on a different port, or --no-pull to skip pulling the latest Docker images.
Capabilities
- Connect 1,000+ integrations and every major LLM
- Add Slack, Notion, HubSpot, Salesforce, databases, and more
- Build agents visually, conversationally, or with code
- Ingest files, knowledge bases, and structured table data
- Monitor runs, logs, schedules, and workflow activity
One workspace, every surface
Chat and workflows are just the start — tables, files, knowledge, and scheduled tasks all live in the same workspace.
Tables — a database, built in |
Files — one store for your team and every agent |
Knowledge — your agents' memory |
Scheduled tasks — runs on your schedule |
Self-hosting
Docker Compose
git clone https://github.com/simstudioai/sim.git && cd sim
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
Sim also supports local models via Ollama and vLLM. See the Docker self-hosting docs for setup details.
Manual Setup
Requirements: Bun, Node.js v20+, PostgreSQL 12+ with pgvector
- Clone and install:
git clone https://github.com/simstudioai/sim.git
cd sim
bun install
bun run prepare # Set up pre-commit hooks
- Set up PostgreSQL with pgvector:
docker run --name simstudio-db -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=your_password -e POSTGRES_DB=simstudio -p 5432:5432 -d pgvector/pgvector:pg17
Or install manually via the pgvector guide.
- Configure environment:
cp apps/sim/.env.example apps/sim/.env
# Create your secrets
perl -i -pe "s/your_encryption_key/$(openssl rand -hex 32)/" apps/sim/.env
perl -i -pe "s/your_internal_api_secret/$(openssl rand -hex 32)/" apps/sim/.env
perl -i -pe "s/your_api_encryption_key/$(openssl rand -hex 32)/" apps/sim/.env
# DB configs for migration
cp packages/db/.env.example packages/db/.env
# Edit both .env files to set DATABASE_URL="postgresql://postgres:your_password@localhost:5432/simstudio"
- Run migrations:
cd packages/db && bun run db:migrate
- Start development servers:
bun run dev:full # Starts Next.js app and realtime socket server
Or run separately: bun run dev (Next.js) and cd apps/sim && bun run dev:sockets (realtime).
Chat API Keys
Chat is a Sim-managed service. To use Chat on a self-hosted instance:
- Go to https://sim.ai → Settings → Chat keys and generate a Chat API key
- Set
COPILOT_API_KEYenvironment variable in your self-hosted apps/sim/.env file to that value
Environment Variables
See the environment variables reference for the full list, or apps/sim/.env.example for defaults.
