This file provides rules and context for generating or understanding Go code related to a custom Domain Specific Language (DSL) for defining Temporal workflows within this project.

**DSL Overview:**

This project uses a specific Go-based DSL to define Temporal workflows declaratively. The core idea is to represent workflow logic using nested structures rather than imperative Go code directly within the workflow function.

**Core DSL Structures (Defined in `dsl` package):**

*   **`Workflow`**: The top-level structure representing the entire workflow definition.
    *   `Variables map[string]string`: Initial variables available to the workflow. These act as the initial state or input.
    *   `Root Statement`: The starting point of the workflow logic (can be a single activity, a sequence, or parallel steps).
*   **`Statement`**: A building block representing a single step or a composite structure. A `Statement` can contain one of the following:
    *   `Activity *ActivityInvocation`: Represents a call to a Temporal Activity.
    *   `Sequence *Sequence`: Represents a series of statements executed sequentially.
    *   `Parallel *Parallel`: Represents a set of statements executed in parallel.
*   **`Sequence`**: Contains a slice `Elements []*Statement` which are executed one after another.
*   **`Parallel`**: Contains a slice `Branches []*Statement` which are executed concurrently. The parallel execution waits for all branches to complete. If one branch errors, others are cancelled.
*   **`ActivityInvocation`**: Defines how to invoke a specific Temporal Activity.
    *   `Name string`: The registered name of the Temporal Activity to call.
    *   `Arguments []string`: A list of variable names (keys from the `bindings` map) whose values should be passed as arguments to the activity.
    *   `Result string`: The name of the variable (key in the `bindings` map) where the activity's result should be stored.

**Execution Flow (`SimpleDSLWorkflow`):**

*   The entry point for workflows defined using this DSL is the `SimpleDSLWorkflow` function: `func SimpleDSLWorkflow(ctx workflow.Context, dslWorkflow Workflow) ([]byte, error)`.
*   It initializes a `bindings` map from the `dslWorkflow.Variables`.
*   It sets default `workflow.ActivityOptions` (e.g., `StartToCloseTimeout`).
*   It uses `workflow.GetLogger(ctx)` for logging.
*   It recursively calls the `execute` method on the `Root` statement, passing the `ctx` and `bindings` map.

**Data Flow (`bindings`):**

*   The `bindings map[string]string` acts as the shared state or memory for the workflow execution.
*   Initial values come from `Workflow.Variables`.
*   `ActivityInvocation.Arguments` specifies which values from `bindings` to use as input for an activity.
*   `ActivityInvocation.Result` specifies the key in `bindings` where the activity's return value should be stored.
*   The `makeInput` helper function retrieves argument values from the `bindings` map based on the names listed in `ActivityInvocation.Arguments`.

**Concurrency (`Parallel` execution):**

*   The `Parallel.execute` method uses `workflow.Go` to launch each branch concurrently.
*   It uses `workflow.NewSelector` and `Future.Get` to wait for branches to complete.
*   `workflow.WithCancel` is used to cancel pending branches if one branch encounters an error.

**Working with the DSL:**

*   When asked to create or modify workflows, structure the logic using the `Workflow`, `Statement`, `Sequence`, `Parallel`, and `ActivityInvocation` types.
*   Define the flow of execution by nesting `Sequence` and `Parallel` structures within `Statement`s.
*   Specify activity calls using `ActivityInvocation`, ensuring `Name`, `Arguments`, and `Result` are correctly defined based on the available activities and the desired data flow through the `bindings` map.
*   Remember that the actual activity implementation exists separately (see `activities.mdc`) and is invoked by name.
