 "summary": "Connect Google Calendar and Microsoft 365 to stop double bookings against existing meetings.",
 "who": "A team admin whose hosts already live in Google Calendar or Microsoft 365 and who needs bookings to respect those calendars.",
 "problem": "Without calendar sync, a booking page offers times that are already taken on a host's real calendar.",
 "outcome": "A booking page that checks connected Google or Microsoft calendars and shows only truly open slots.",
 "steps": [
  "Complete the base deployment using `npx punctual-sh init` or the manual steps in the README.",
  "Create your own Google and Microsoft OAuth apps, since the README says calendar sync uses your own OAuth app.",
  "Follow the walkthrough in docs/self-hosting.md to connect each host's Google or Microsoft calendar.",
  "Create an event type with buffers and notice windows, then open the booking page and confirm that a busy calendar slot is not offered."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the CCCrafts/punctual repo and docs/self-hosting.md, list the steps to connect a Google calendar to a deployed Punctual instance at <base-url>. Output the ordered steps and confirm that the OAuth redirect values match the deployed BASE_URL.",

 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README points to docs/self-hosting.md for the calendar connection steps, so the exact OAuth setup is not in the README itself.",
