Waleed 7bd734ceef fix(landing): fix Core Web Vitals regressions across public marketing pages (#5522)
* fix(landing): fix Core Web Vitals regressions across public marketing pages

- root layout unconditionally rendered next-runtime-env's PublicEnvScript,
  which calls unstable_noStore() and silently forced every route in the app
  dynamic - marketing pages never got static/ISR caching despite their own
  revalidate. Gated it to self-hosted only; hosted now uses a static,
  build-time equivalent (app/_shell/public-env-script.tsx)
- removed real pointer-drag handlers from the hero's decorative workflow
  animation (was draggable despite being aria-hidden)
- disabled dragging/panning on the (currently unmounted) landing-preview
  ReactFlow canvas so it's static-by-default if it's ever wired in
- lazy-mount the Product Demo section's duplicate HeroVisual instance via
  next/dynamic + IntersectionObserver instead of loading it eagerly below
  the fold
- disabled Next.js Link prefetch on always-in-viewport /signup and /login
  CTAs (navbar, hero, mobile nav) so their JS isn't fetched on every
  pageview regardless of whether the visitor clicks
- removed `unoptimized` from local blog/integration images (including the
  priority LCP image on every blog post), letting next/image serve
  resized AVIF/WebP instead of full-size originals

* fix(landing): address review findings on the CWV PR

- revert prefetch={false} on below-fold CTAs (cta.tsx, enterprise.tsx) -
  contradicts the prefetch-on-approach rule this PR itself documents
- restore unoptimized on avatarUrl and the MDX body-image renderer, both of
  which can legitimately hold external URLs outside next.config.ts's
  image remotePatterns allow-list
- simplify handleAnchors to a single block argument now that positions are
  static (the second "live position" argument was always identical to the
  first after the drag-handler removal)
- extract the near-duplicate IntersectionObserver lazy-mount logic shared
  by landing-preview-mount.tsx and product-demo-visual-mount.tsx into a
  single apps/sim/app/(landing)/hooks/use-lazy-mount.ts hook
- import next-runtime-env's own exported PUBLIC_ENV_KEY constant instead of
  a hardcoded string literal, and match its case-insensitive NEXT_PUBLIC_
  filter exactly, removing any drift risk between the two implementations
- drop plain inline comments with no TSDoc home in favor of relying on the
  existing TSDoc/CLAUDE.md documentation

* fix(landing): carry the unoptimized-image fix onto the shared content-*-page components

The blog/library split (#5516) moved the blog post/index/author JSX into
shared ContentPostPage/ContentIndexPage/ContentAuthorPage components while
this branch was in flight, so the original unoptimized removal (verified
local-only ogImage paths for both blog and library content) needs to land
on those shared components instead of the old per-route JSX.

* fix(landing): document ogImage's local-path expectation, fix CLAUDE.md structure doc

- add a one-line comment on ContentFrontmatterSchema.ogImage documenting
  that it's rendered without unoptimized and expects a local path, matching
  the existing avatarUrl comment convention (a reviewer noted ogImage's
  schema is technically unconstrained and seo.ts has an http-prefix branch,
  though all current content is local)
- add the new hooks/ folder to the (landing) CLAUDE.md structure diagram and
  name use-lazy-mount.ts directly in the lazy-mount rule

* fix(landing): escape </script> breakout in the static public-env script

Greptile P1: a NEXT_PUBLIC_* value containing "</script>" would close the
inline script early and could inject markup/script into every hosted page.
Escape "<" in the serialized JSON before interpolating it, matching the
standard JSON-in-script-tag safeguard.

Sim — Integrate, Context, Build, and Monitor AI agents

A workspace to build, deploy and manage AI agents and workflows.

Quickstart

Cloud-hosted: sim.ai

Open sim.ai

Self-hosted

npx simstudio

Open http://localhost:3000

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.

The Sim platform — chat on the left, the visual workflow builder on the right

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 in Sim — structured data your agents can query

Tables — a database, built in

Files in Sim — documents for your team and every agent

Files — one store for your team and every agent

Knowledge bases in Sim — synced docs your agents can search

Knowledge — your agents' memory

Scheduled tasks in Sim — recurring agent runs on a calendar

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

Open http://localhost:3000

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

  1. Clone and install:
git clone https://github.com/simstudioai/sim.git
cd sim
bun install
bun run prepare  # Set up pre-commit hooks
  1. 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.

  1. 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"
  1. Run migrations:
cd packages/db && bun run db:migrate
  1. 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_KEY environment 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.
