File Path Patterns (Glob)

Frontend

frontend/src/**/*.tsx        # All React components
frontend/src/**/*.ts         # All TypeScript files
frontend/src/components/**   # Only components directory

Backend Services

form/src/**/*.ts            # Form service
email/src/**/*.ts           # Email service
users/src/**/*.ts           # Users service
projects/src/**/*.ts        # Projects service

Database

**/schema.prisma            # Prisma schema (anywhere)
**/migrations/**/*.sql      # Migration files
database/src/**/*.ts        # Database scripts

Workflows

form/src/workflow/**/*.ts              # Workflow engine
form/src/workflow-definitions/**/*.json # Workflow definitions

Test Exclusions

**/*.test.ts                # TypeScript tests
