* fix(copilot): make tool write gates fail closed The three handler-map management tools (manage_custom_tool, manage_mcp_tool, manage_skill) gated writes with `context.userPermission && perm !== 'write' && perm !== 'admin'`. userPermission is optional on the execution context, so an absent value skipped the check entirely and the write proceeded unguarded — while the server-tool router's equivalent gate is fail-closed. Both paths now share copilotToolCanWrite, built on the canonical permissionSatisfies (null/undefined never satisfies). manage_custom_tool additionally resolved its target as `params.workspaceId || context.workspaceId`, so a model-supplied workspace id won while the permission check was resolved for the context workspace — and upsertCustomTools performs no authz of its own. It now uses the server-set context only, matching its two siblings.

Gate on write access after param validation. assertWorkflowMutable moves into performFullDeploy / performFullUndeploy / performActivateVersion, where performRevertToVersion already had it. The check previously lived only in the deploy routes, so the copilot deploy tools — which call the orchestration functions directly — could deploy, undeploy, and activate versions of a locked workflow. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(copilot): enforce secret-admin on env writes and gate KB indexing on usage Two more paths where the agent is a weaker route to the same write than the UI. upsertWorkspaceEnvVars was a weakened copy of the environment route's write: no per-key secret-admin check, no advisory lock, no audit row. Its only caller is the set_environment_variables copilot tool, which gates on workspace 'write' alone — so any write-level member could have the agent overwrite a workspace secret they do not administer, with nothing in the audit log and a lost-update race against the route's locked transaction. The gate now lives in the function so every caller inherits it, reusing getWorkspaceEnvKeyAdminAccess rather than restating the route's logic. knowledge_base add_file computed a billing attribution and then indexed without calling checkAttributedUsageLimits, which every upload route applies before accepting indexing work — an over-quota workspace could index without limit through the agent. The same file's query operation already gated correctly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(copilot): return lock denials and stop bootstrapping a legacy secret's ACL Two defects in the previous commits, both found by review. assertWorkflowMutable throws, and the three orchestration entry points awaited it outside any try/catch, so a locked workflow escaped as an exception instead of the { success: false } result the callers consume — performChatDeploy and the copilot deploy tools would have surfaced a generic 500 rather than a lock denial. performRevertToVersion already converted it; the three now do too, through a shared helper. upsertWorkspaceEnvVars derived newKeys for createWorkspaceEnvCredentials from the credential rows rather than the stored variables. A secret written before credential rows existed has no ACL, so overwriting it looked like adding a new key: it minted a credential and made the caller that secret's admin. The environment route derives newKeys from the locked jsonb read for exactly this reason, and now so does this.

Carry the reason and mirror the route's two messages.

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 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, 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
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.
Manage your install with bun run sim:
bun run sim start | stop | restart # bring your install up / down / cycle
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.
