* Revert "refactor: consolidate agent docs and split knowledge-base into modular rules"

This reverts commit 8251b6b214c7c01a3bfe2137c6aa9292dd72427e.

* refactor: reorganize agent docs - extract coding rules, keep domain knowledge

- Slim down knowledge-base.md (356 → 96 lines) to domain knowledge only
- Add Business rules section (managed events, orgs/teams, OAuth clients)
- Delete coding-standards.md (content moved to rules)
- Create 19 new rule files for coding guidelines:
  - quality-*: PR creation, error handling, imports, comments, code review
  - testing-*: playwright, mocking, timezone, incremental
  - ci-*: check failures, type-check-first, git workflow
  - data-prisma-*: migrations, feature flags
  - patterns-*: workflow triggers, app store
  - architecture-features-modules, reference-file-locations, reference-local-dev
- Update agents/README.md as rules index (43 total rules)
- Update _sections.md with CI/CD and Reference sections
- Clean up parse-local-knowledge.ts

* fix: rename knowledge-base sections to start with "When..."

Update section headers to pass validation rules:
- "Business Rules" → "When working with managed events, organizations, or OAuth clients"
- "Product & Codebase Knowledge" → "When you need product or codebase context"

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor: split knowledge-base business rules into separate sections

Split the combined "When working with managed events, organizations, or OAuth clients"
section into three distinct ## sections for better Devin triggering:
- When working with managed event types
- When working with organizations and teams
- When working with OAuth clients

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor: simplify trigger description logic in parse-local-knowledge.ts

Since validate-local-knowledge.ts enforces that all section titles must start
with "When...", we can remove the manual fallback logic and just use the
title directly as the trigger description.

* refactor: simplify knowledge-base section validation

Simplify the validation to only check that section titles start with "When..."
since we've standardized on that pattern. Remove the special cases for error,
file naming, PR, and repo note sections.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: add script to delete all Devin knowledge entries

Add delete-all-devin-knowledge.ts script that:
- Lists all knowledge entries before deletion
- Requires interactive confirmation (Y) to proceed
- Blocks execution in non-TTY environments (CI, piped input)
- Shows progress while deleting entries

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: add API reference links to delete-all-devin-knowledge script

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: replace NOW() with CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in feature flag migration example

Co-Authored-By: unknown <>

* add -S

* docs: consolidate agent documentation and add AI setup guide

- Remove duplicated Project Structure & Tech Stack from agents/README.md
- Condense Commands section in AGENTS.md, link to agents/commands.md
- Add AI-Assisted Development section to root README.md explaining
  the agents/ folder structure and symlink configuration

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: remove incorrect CLAUDE.md symlink claim from README

Workflow Trigger Implementation MEDIUM Consistent workflow patterns ensure reliable automation workflows, triggers, automation

Workflow Trigger Implementation

Using scheduleWorkflowReminders

To trigger workflows in Cal.com, use the scheduleWorkflowReminders function. This is the standard approach used throughout the codebase.

Before implementing new workflow triggers, examine existing implementations in the codebase to understand the pattern. The function:

  • Filters workflows by trigger type
  • Processes each workflow step

Key locations where this is used:

  • Booking handlers
  • Confirmation processes
  • Other booking-related events

Adding New Workflow Triggers

  1. Check packages/prisma/schema.prisma for existing webhooks and workflow trigger enums as reference
  2. Add the same enums to workflows (only when asked specifically)
  3. Add enums to packages/features/ee/workflows/lib/constants.ts for UI display
  4. Add translations to en/locale.json using the format {enum}_trigger (all lowercase)

Webhook triggers serve as the reference implementation pattern for workflow triggers.

Workflows vs Webhooks

Workflows and webhooks are two completely separate features in Cal.com with different implementations and file structures:

  • Workflow constants: packages/features/ee/workflows/lib/constants.ts
  • NOT in the webhooks directory

When working on workflow triggers, do not reference or use webhook trigger implementations - they are distinct systems.
