# Compatibility

`npm run smoke` (in this package) packs the plugin, installs it with npm into a brand-new Studio and checks that:

1. it installs with no peer-dependency conflicts,
2. there's exactly one copy of `@sanity/sdk-react`, `@sanity/sdk`, `@portabletext/editor`, `react` and `styled-components`, and of every `@portabletext/*` package,
3. a `sanity.config.ts` using the plugin and its theme type-checks against the published types,
4. `sanity build` bundles the Studio with exactly one copy of the App SDK,
5. with `--embedded`, the same Studio embedded in a Next.js App Router app (`next-sanity`'s `NextStudio`) builds too, again with one App SDK in the browser bundle.

```sh
pnpm smoke                      # latest sanity
pnpm smoke latest --embedded   # …and embedded in Next.js
pnpm smoke 6.12.0 --loose      # an older one, ignoring the declared range
```

CI runs it on every pull request against the declared minimum (6.22.0) and the latest release, embedded too.

It can't open the room itself, because that needs a logged-in Studio. The browser tests under [Develop](https://github.com/mematthew123/sanity-plugin-writing-room#develop) do that.

**Embedding the Studio in Next.js:** put `'use client'` at the top of `sanity.config.ts`, as Sanity's guide for the App Router says; without it, Next tries to bundle the whole Studio for the server.

| `sanity` | Smoke test | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 6.22.0 | ✅ passes | Declared minimum. Used day to day. |
| 6.12.0 – 6.21.x | ✅ passes with `--loose` | Not yet used for real writing, so not in the declared range. |
| ≤ 6.11.x | ❌ fails | Ships App SDK v2 and `@portabletext/editor` 7, so the room gets a second copy of each. |

Results from November 2026.
