* fix(search): match block references by the name the canvas shows A block reference stores its target as the block's normalized name - lowercased with whitespace and dots stripped - so a block titled "Send Email" is written `<sendemail.content>`. Workflow search indexed that token as-is, so its searchable text never contained the block's actual name. Searching a name the way it reads on the card therefore found the block itself and none of its references, while the run-together form found the references and not the block. No single query could find both, and the run-together form is the one nothing in the UI ever shows. Resolve a reference's prefix back through the same helper that produced it, so the reference is searched under the name the block is titled with. `rawValue` is untouched, so the stored form keeps matching and the highlight and replace paths, which key off it, are unaffected. Environment references, system prefixes like `loop`, and references left behind by a deleted block resolve to no name and stay exactly as written. * fix(search): keep the dot-free name on a legacy reference-prefix collision Creating or renaming a block enforces uniqueness at the normalized level, but legacy workflows can still hold two names that collide only now that `normalizeName` strips dots. `BlockResolver` settles that tie by letting the dot-free name keep ownership of the key, so previously working references never change targets. The prefix map took whichever block was iterated last instead, so search could name a reference after the dotted block while execution resolved it to the dot-free one - search reporting the wrong block, which is what this is meant to stop. Mirror the resolver's rule so both agree.
A workspace to build, deploy and manage AI agents and workflows.
Quickstart
Cloud-hosted: sim.ai
Self-hosted
git clone https://github.com/simstudioai/sim.git && cd sim
bun install
bun run setup
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, and knowledge all live in the same workspace.
Tables — a database, built in |
Files — one store for your team and every agent |
Knowledge — your agents' memory |
Self-hosting
bun run setup is an interactive wizard: it provisions the database, generates secrets, writes your .env files, connects a Chat API key, and starts Sim the way you choose:
- Local dev — run from source to contribute or hack on Sim
- Docker Compose — a self-contained instance for testing self-hosting
- Kubernetes (Helm) — deploy to a local cluster
When it finishes, open http://localhost:3000.
Reconfigure an optional capability without rerunning the full wizard:
bun run setup status
bun run setup email
bun run setup storage
bun run setup sandbox
bun run setup jobs
bun run setup cache
bun run setup knowledge
bun run setup llm
bun run setup integration slack
bun run setup status detects the effective local-dev, Docker Compose, or current-context
Helm configuration and reports configured, missing, or invalid capabilities and OAuth
integrations without printing credential values. This is separate from bun run sim status,
which reports whether installed services are running and healthy.
Manage your install with bun run sim:
bun run sim start | stop | restart # bring your install up / down / cycle
bun run sim update # pull/rebuild and apply Compose images
bun run sim status # what's installed and healthy
bun run sim logs # follow logs
bun run sim doctor # diagnose configuration problems
bun run sim down # remove containers (data kept)
bun run sim reset # archive .env and wipe managed data
sim detects how you're running (Docker Compose, local dev, or Kubernetes) and acts accordingly.
Prefer a bare sim? Run bun link once — but note sim lands in ~/.bun/bin, which Homebrew's bun doesn't add to your PATH, so you may need export PATH="$HOME/.bun/bin:$PATH" in your shell profile.
Sim also supports local models via Ollama and vLLM. See the self-hosting docs for details.
Chat API Keys
Chat is a Sim-managed service. bun run setup connects a Chat API key for you — sign in when it opens your browser and the key is stored automatically. To view, create, or revoke keys later, go to sim.ai/selfhost/settings/chat-keys.
Environment Variables
See the environment variables reference for the full list, or apps/sim/.env.example for defaults.
