* feat(logs): redact PII from workflow logs via configurable rules Enterprise PII redaction for workflow execution logs, configured under Data Retention as org-scoped rules (each rule picks entity types + which workspaces it applies to). Reuses the guardrails Presidio engine in mask mode at the log-persist choke point, with a check-digit-validated VIN recognizer. Also adds per-workspace data-retention-hours overrides. * fix(logs): widen PII entity visibleValues to string[] for strict build typecheck * fix(logs): redact error/trigger/executionState; keep guardrails import lazy - Extend PII redaction to span error/errorMessage/toolCalls and top-level error/completionFailure/trigger/executionState (Bugbot: PII in execution metadata). executionState is safe to redact — resume reads from the separate pausedExecutions table, not the log copy. - Lazy-import validate_pii in pii-redaction so the Python/child_process guardrails module stays out of the static middleware/RSC graph. - Type the org retention mutation to the contract body (optional, non-null). * refactor(logs): drop per-workspace retention override; PII redaction stays org-scoped - Remove the unused per-workspace data-retention-hours override (no UI; superseded by workspace-scoped PII rules). Reverts cleanup-dispatcher to org-only retention, drops resolveEffectiveRetentionHours, the workspace.dataRetentionSettings column + migration, and the workspace data-retention route/contract/hooks. Fixes Bugbot's null-as-unset finding by removing the buggy path entirely; org retention behavior is unchanged. - Stop re-checking isWorkspaceOnEnterprisePlan at persist time (it returns false on transient errors, which would fail-open and leak PII). Enabled rules already imply entitlement; redact whenever rules apply (fail-safe). * fix(logs): redact oversized strings and executionData.environment - Drop the per-string size cap in PII redaction: oversized strings were left unmasked (leak). Nothing is skipped now; large payloads still fail-safe via the total-bytes ceiling + per-chunk timeout (scrub, never leak). - Add executionData.environment (incl. variables) to the redaction set. * refactor(logs): single-scope PII rules with most-specific-wins resolution Each rule now targets one scope — all workspaces (workspaceId: null) or a single workspace — with workspaceId unique across rules. Resolution is most-specific-wins (a workspace's own rule overrides the all rule), not union; an empty specific rule exempts that workspace. Matches Access Control's resolveWorkspaceGroup precedence. UI 'Applies to' becomes a single-select; Add rule disables when all scopes are taken. * feat(logs): default + workspace-overrides UI for PII redaction Reshape the PII redaction settings into a 'Default (all workspaces)' block plus a 'Workspace overrides' list, making the most-specific-wins precedence explicit (overrides replace the default; unlisted workspaces use it). Same data model (workspaceId null = default), UI only. * improvement(logs): clearer default/overrides PII UI Drop the uppercase section labels and the overrides description; gate the Workspace overrides section behind a configured default; use a single Delete action; 'Add redaction' creates the all-workspaces default and disappears once set. * fix(guardrails): handle stdin EPIPE in PII python spawns Attach an 'error' listener to the child's stdin in both runPythonScript (the batch masking hot path) and executePythonPIIDetection. A 256KB chunk can exceed the OS pipe buffer, so if the Python process exits mid-read (OOM/kill) the EPIPE emitted on stdin was unhandled and would crash the Node process. Funnel it into the promise rejection so the fail-safe scrub path handles it gracefully. * fix(logs): redact executionData.correlation The top-level correlation field is copied from pre-redaction trigger data, so webhook/schedule correlation values could persist unredacted. Add it to the redaction set alongside trigger/environment. * fix(logs): enforce unique PII rule scope server-side The contract accepted multiple rules with the same workspaceId (or several null all-rules); resolution is first-match, so duplicates could disagree with the UI. Add a schema refine rejecting duplicate scopes. * fix(logs): re-hydrate data-retention form on org switch The form hydrated once via a boolean ref, so switching the active org left stale retention days + PII rules and saves targeted the new org with old config. Key hydration on orgId so it re-loads per org.
The open-source AI workspace where teams build, deploy, and manage AI agents. Build conversationally, visually, or with code. Connect 1,000+ integrations and every major LLM to automate real work.
Build everything in Chat
Your AI command center. Describe what you want in plain language. Sim knows your entire workspace and takes action: building agents, running them, querying data, and more.
Create files and documents
Generate documents, reports, and presentations from a single prompt, grounded in your workspace data.
Ground agents in your knowledge
Upload documents to a knowledge base and let agents answer questions from your own content.
Structured data with Tables
A database, built in. Store, query, and wire structured data into agent runs.
Build visually with Workflows
Prefer a canvas? Design agents block by block in the visual builder, and let Sim generate blocks, wire variables, and fix errors from natural language.
Quickstart
Cloud-hosted: sim.ai
Self-hosted: NPM Package
npx simstudio
Note
Docker must be installed and running on your machine.
Options
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
-p, --port <port> |
Port to run Sim on (default 3000) |
--no-pull |
Skip pulling latest Docker images |
Self-hosted: 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.
Self-hosted: 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.
