Details
From the project READMEWhen To Use
Pick this skill when the user wants to make an existing Twenty app presentable — listing copy, branding, public assets, and publication. Representative triggers:
- "prepare my Twenty app for the marketplace"
- "write the README for my Twenty app"
- "publish my app to npm"
- "add a logo / screenshots / marketplace metadata"
- "set up
defineApplicationmarketplace fields" - "review my app listing before going live"
- "ship a new version of my published app"
Do not use this skill to scaffold (use create-app), to change app entities (use develop-app), to deploy a private build to a specific Twenty server (use manage-app), or to query workspace records (use use-twenty-mcp).
Publishing Checklist
For background on how Twenty apps work — the SDK packages, remotes, sync lifecycle, and rendering model — read ../../references/concepts/how-apps-work.md. Cross-skill operating rules that apply to every Twenty app task are in ../../references/concepts/operating-rules.md; they are authoritative and not restated per skill.
Use ../../references/publish-app/prepare-for-app-store.md for detailed README, marketplace copy, logo, screenshot, and public asset guidance.
Keep the skill workflow concise:
- Inspect
package.json,README.md,src/application-config.ts, andpublic/. - For npm marketplace publication, ensure
package.jsonhas a valid bumpedversionand thetwenty-appkeyword. - In
defineApplication(), verify marketplace-facing fields such asdisplayName,description,author,category,logo,galleryImages,aboutDescription,websiteUrl,termsUrl,emailSupport, andissueReportUrl. - Keep
logoandgalleryImagespointed at files inpublic/. Public assets must not contain secrets, private data, customer records, real tokens, or unreleased confidential material. - Remember that if
aboutDescriptionis omitted, the marketplace uses the packageREADME.mdfrom npm for the About content. The About tab renders markdown text only: images and raw HTML are not rendered. - Validate with
twenty app build; publish withtwenty app publishortwenty app publish --tag <tag>.
Boundaries
Use $manage-app for remotes, deploys to a specific server, logs, troubleshooting, and CI/CD operations.
Use $develop-app when the app entities themselves need to change before the listing can be accurate.
Docs
If the needed publishing detail is unclear, search the official Twenty docs at https://docs.twenty.com before guessing. When a Twenty docs MCP server is configured (https://docs.twenty.com/mcp), prefer searching through it. That server is an optional enhancement, not a requirement for this skill.
