* improvement(tables): click-to-select navigation, inline rename, column resize
* fix(tables): address PR review comments
- Add doneRef guard to useInlineRename preventing Enter+blur double-fire
- Fix PATCH error handler: return 500 for non-validation errors, fix unreachable logger.error
- Stop click propagation on breadcrumb rename input
* fix(tables): add rows-affected check in renameTable service
Prevents silent no-op when tableId doesn't match any record.
* fix(tables): useMemo deps + placeholder memo initialCharacter check
- Use primitive editingId/editValue in useMemo deps instead of whole
useInlineRename object (which creates a new ref every render)
- Add initialCharacter comparison to placeholderPropsAreEqual, matching
the existing pattern in dataRowPropsAreEqual
* fix(tables): address round 2 review comments
- Mirror name validation (regex + max length) in PatchTableSchema so
validateTableName failures return 400 instead of 500
- Add .returning() + rows-affected check to renameWorkspaceFile,
matching the renameTable pattern
- Check response.ok before parsing JSON in useRenameWorkspaceFile,
matching the useRenameTable pattern
* refactor(tables): reuse InlineRenameInput in BreadcrumbSegment
Replace duplicated inline input markup with the shared component.
Eliminates redundant useRef, useEffect, and input boilerplate.
* fix(tables): set doneRef in cancelRename to prevent blur-triggered save
Escape → cancelRename → input unmounts → blur → submitRename would
save instead of canceling. Now cancelRename sets doneRef like
submitRename does, blocking the subsequent blur handler.
* fix(tables): pointercancel cleanup + typed FileConflictError
- Add pointercancel handler to column resize to prevent listener leaks
when system interrupts the pointer (touch-action override, etc.)
- Replace stringly-typed error.message.includes('already exists') with
FileConflictError class for refactor-safe 409 status detection
* fix(tables): stable useCallback dep + rename shadowed variable
- Use listRename.startRename (stable ref) instead of whole listRename
object in handleContextMenuRename deps
- Rename inner 'target' to 'origin' in arrow-key handler to avoid
shadowing the outer HTMLElement 'target'
* fix(tables): move class below imports, stable submitRename, clear editingCell
- Move FileConflictError below import statements (import-first convention)
- Make submitRename a stable useCallback([]) by reading editingId and
editValue through refs (matches existing onSaveRef pattern)
- Add setEditingCell(null) to handleEmptyRowClick for symmetry with
handleCellClick
* feat(tables): persist column widths in table metadata
Column widths now survive navigation and page reloads. On resize-end,
widths are debounced (500ms) and saved to the table's metadata field
via a new PUT /api/table/[tableId]/metadata endpoint. On load, widths
are seeded from the server once via React Query.
* fix type checking for file viewer
* fix(tables): address review feedback — 4 fixes
1. headerRename.onSave now uses the fileId parameter directly instead
of the selectedFile closure, preventing rename-wrong-file race
2. updateMetadataMutation uses ref pattern matching mutateRef/createRef
3. Type-to-enter filters non-numeric chars for number columns, non-date
chars for date columns
4. renameValue only passed to actively-renaming ColumnHeaderMenu,
preserving React.memo for other columns
* fix(tables): position-based gap rows, insert above/below, consistency fixes
- Fix gap row insert shifting: only shift rows when target position is
occupied, preventing unnecessary displacement of rows below
- Switch to position-based indexing throughout (positionMap, maxPosition)
instead of array-index for correct sparse position handling
- Add insert row above/below to context menu
- Use CellContent for pending values in PositionGapRows (matching PlaceholderRows)
- Add belowHeader selection overlay logic to PositionGapRows
- Remove unnecessary 500ms debounce on column width persistence

The open-source platform to build AI agents and run your agentic workforce. Connect 1,000+ integrations and LLMs to orchestrate agentic workflows.
Build Workflows with Ease
Design agent workflows visually on a canvas—connect agents, tools, and blocks, then run them instantly.
Supercharge with Copilot
Leverage Copilot to generate nodes, fix errors, and iterate on flows directly from natural language.
Integrate Vector Databases
Upload documents to a vector store and let agents answer questions grounded in your specific content.
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
Using Local Models with Ollama
Run Sim with local AI models using Ollama - no external APIs required:
# Start with GPU support (automatically downloads gemma3:4b model)
docker compose -f docker-compose.ollama.yml --profile setup up -d
# For CPU-only systems:
docker compose -f docker-compose.ollama.yml --profile cpu --profile setup up -d
Wait for the model to download, then visit http://localhost:3000. Add more models with:
docker compose -f docker-compose.ollama.yml exec ollama ollama pull llama3.1:8b
Using an External Ollama Instance
If Ollama is running on your host machine, use host.docker.internal instead of localhost:
OLLAMA_URL=http://host.docker.internal:11434 docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
On Linux, use your host's IP address or add extra_hosts: ["host.docker.internal:host-gateway"] to the compose file.
Using vLLM
Sim supports vLLM for self-hosted models. Set VLLM_BASE_URL and optionally VLLM_API_KEY in your environment.
Self-hosted: Dev Containers
- Open VS Code with the Remote - Containers extension
- Open the project and click "Reopen in Container" when prompted
- Run
bun run dev:fullin the terminal or use thesim-startalias- This starts both the main application and the realtime socket server
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
- 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
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 && bunx drizzle-kit migrate --config=./drizzle.config.ts
- Start development servers:
bun run dev:full # Starts both Next.js app and realtime socket server
Or run separately: bun run dev (Next.js) and cd apps/sim && bun run dev:sockets (realtime).
Copilot API Keys
Copilot is a Sim-managed service. To use Copilot on a self-hosted instance:
