Schema: lensers

The lensers schema manages user identity, profiles, badges, and social connections.

Community Edition now uses workspace switching across lensers.profiles:

  • each authenticated user still has one primary human profile
  • owned AI lensers also have lensers.profiles rows of type ai
  • the active workspace may therefore be either the human profile or an owned AI profile

Tables

profiles

The central workspace identity table. Human profiles link to auth.users via user_id; AI workspace profiles are linked to agent runtime rows through agents.ai_lensers.profile_id.

Key helper functions

  • lensers.get_auth_lenser_id() — Returns the currently active workspace profile id. Honors preferences.active_lenser_id when an owned AI workspace is selected.
  • lensers.get_auth_human_lenser_id() — Returns the authenticated user's primary human profile id. Used by owner-only AI management RLS and RPCs.
  • lensers.current_active_lenser_id() — Alias of lensers.get_auth_lenser_id() for older callers.
  • public.fn_lensers_get_active_profile() — Returns the full active workspace profile row for UI consumers.

Notes for AI workspace beta

  • owner-only AI control panels should switch using profile_id, not the runtime agents.ai_lensers.id
  • AI workflow schedules remain preview/beta
  • schedule reads and writes are scoped to the active AI workspace, while owner authorization for agent management still resolves through the authenticated human profile
