Closes #5924 Closes #5925 Closes #5926 Closes #5927 Closes #5928 Closes #5929 ## Outcome Makes MCP and CLI authoring predictable across project-wide CSS variables, font uploads, retried asset uploads, destructive asset selection, design-token collisions, and SVG HtmlEmbed edits. ## Delivered ### Project-global CSS variables - [x] `define-css-variable` writes to `ROOT_INSTANCE_ID` / `:root` instead of the home-page Body. - [x] Breakpoint and overwrite behavior is preserved, and compact results identify the root scope. - [x] Existing body-local declarations remain untouched. - [x] Runtime and Builder integration tests cover root selection and generated project behavior. ### Font metadata and upload overrides - [x] Static fonts prefer authoritative `OS/2.usWeightClass`. - [x] Fallback matching normalizes spaces, hyphens, and underscores and checks specific aliases before shorter ones. - [x] Explicit format and partial metadata overrides travel through HTTP, filesystem, and S3 upload paths and are validated after merging with detected metadata. - [x] Regression tests cover ExtraBold, Extra-Bold, Semi Bold Italic, Ultra Light, valid weight classes, invalid weight classes, partial overrides, and invalid overrides. ### Idempotent asset uploads - [x] API uploads compute a project-scoped SHA-256 content hash. - [x] Sequential and concurrent duplicate uploads reuse the existing asset and return `deduplicated: true`. - [x] `force: true` bypasses deduplication for intentional duplicates. - [x] A partial unique index enforces one non-null content hash per uploader project. - [x] Stale reservations are cleaned up and active concurrent uploads are bounded by polling and an actionable retry error. - [x] HTTP, protocol, uploader, and CLI tests cover hash reuse, uniqueness races, force propagation, and result markers. The migration does not backfill historical files. Existing assets begin participating in deduplication when uploaded through the new path; matching content keeps the existing asset's metadata rather than silently rewriting it. ### Consistent asset inputs and permissions output - [x] `delete-asset` exposes exact `assetIds` and explicit `assetIdPrefixes`. - [x] The legacy `assetIdsOrPrefixes` input remains accepted and is marked deprecated. - [x] Exact ids no longer accidentally select longer prefixed ids. - [x] `webstudio permissions` prints a readable role/capability summary by default while `--json` remains unchanged for machine callers. - [x] Help and discovery describe JSON output as optional. - [x] Runtime, CLI, metadata, and generated-contract tests cover canonical and compatibility behavior. ### Deterministic fragment design tokens - [x] Fragment insertion reconciles incoming tokens against project tokens and earlier tokens in the same fragment. - [x] Equal name/style tokens are reused instead of creating suffixed twins. - [x] Same-name/different-style fragments require an explicit `ours`, `theirs`, or `merge` policy at the public runtime boundary. - [x] Builder's established internal paste behavior retains its explicit incoming-value default. - [x] `create-design-token` accepts documented CSS strings through the property-aware CSS parser as well as typed style values. - [x] Tests cover same-fragment reuse/conflicts, persisted tokens, explicit policies, and CSS string parsing. ### Editable SVG HtmlEmbed content - [x] HtmlEmbed validation uses parse5 parser errors and source structure instead of serialization-string equality. - [x] Valid inline SVG is accepted without silently normalizing authored markup. - [x] Fragment insertion now uses the same validator as prop update and text replacement paths. - [x] Malformed markup is rejected before mutation. - [x] Regression tests cover realistic SVG, parser failures, and no-partial-mutation behavior. ## Verification - [x] `pnpm checks`: all workspace tests, typechecks, lint, package boundaries, generated API/docs checks, and fixtures passed on the final committed tree. - [x] `pnpm --filter webstudio test:release-smoke`: packaged install, compact comparison, preview, agent workflow, stdio MCP, and structured commands passed. - [x] Prisma schema validation passed with test connection variables. - [x] Two minimally prompted weak-model subagents independently exercised the changed CLI/MCP discovery and focused workflows. - [x] The subagent-found stale `permissions --help` requirement was fixed, regression-tested, and retested. - [x] Final diff and worktree are clean.
Webstudio CLI
The Webstudio CLI helps you to link, sync and build projects from Webstudio Cloud. This README will guide you through the process of setting up a Webstudio project on your local machine and continually sync it with the cloud.
Prerequisites: Installing Node.js
You need Node.js to use the Webstudio CLI. If Node.js is already installed in your system, you can skip ahead to the section on installing the Webstudio CLI.
To install Node.js using NVM, first install NVM by running:
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.5/install.sh | bash
Once NVM is installed, you can install Node.js version 22 by running:
nvm install 22
Verify your Node.js installation by checking its version:
node --version
Installing the Webstudio CLI
To get started with the Webstudio CLI:
-
Download and install the CLI using the following command:
npm install -g webstudio@latest -
Confirm the installation by checking the CLI version:
webstudio --version -
To keep your CLI updated, use the same command used for installation whenever a new release is available.
Initiating a Webstudio Project
Now, you can run a Webstudio project on your local machine using this command:
webstudio
This will initiate the flow to connect your Webstudio Cloud project and build it in your local computer. The default flow will guide you through the steps. You can also perform all the operations individually using independent commands.
Commands
Here is the list of independent commands:
- version
- help
- link
- sync
- build
link
The link command syncs your local Webstudio project with the project from the cloud. This means that any changes made in the cloud can be synced to the local project, once they are published.
You can link a project from Webstudio Cloud with the following command:
webstudio link
This command will prompt you to paste a link which you can create using the Share option in your project.
Make sure to provide Build access when generating the link in Webstudio Cloud.
sync
Once the project is linked, use the sync command to sync it with the cloud:
webstudio sync
Make sure to publish the project in Webstudio Cloud before running the sync command in your local Webstudio project.
build
Now, you can build your project with the build command:
webstudio build
During this phase, the CLI establishes the necessary routes and pages, scaffolding the entire application using the default Remix template. Additionally, all assets, such as images and fonts are downloaded to the assets folder inside the public directory.
Once the project is scaffolded, you can run npm install and then npm run dev to run your app in development mode.
If you want to build a production version of the app, you can run npm run build.
Deployment
Vercel
Once you've built the project locally, you can use the Vercel CLI to deploy your project directly to Vercel:
vercel deploy
Follow the instructions here to install the vercel CLI. We plan to add more deployment targets in future.
Netlify
If you want to deploy to netlify, you can use Netlify CLI to deploy your project directly to Netlify:
netlify deploy
You can configure the project to support netlify serverless/edge-functions respectively, as deployment target at the time of initially setting up your project. Please check the initiating-a-webstudio-project section.
You can manually change it using the build command. For serverless functions:
webstudio build --template netlify
Important Notes
If you use vercel build before vercel deploy, make sure to clean your app folder in the project afterward.
Vercel injects a few files to support and deploy Remix using their CLI, but these files are not necessary for your project when you use it locally.
