Personality Engine

interface PersonalityTraits {
  warmth: number;        // 0-100: Professional → Personal
  urgency: number;       // 0-100: Relaxed → Urgent
  formality: number;     // 0-100: Casual → Formal
  helpfulness: number;   // 0-100: Brief → Detailed
  culturalContext: 'western' | 'arabic' | 'mixed';
}

The AI adapts messaging style based on:

• Patient engagement scores
• Response patterns
• Cultural preferences
• Risk levels
• Previous interactions

Smart Routing Engine

interface RoutingCondition {
  type: 'engagement_score' | 'no_show_risk' | 'response_time' | 'appointment_day';
  operator: 'gt' | 'lt' | 'eq' | 'contains';
  value: any;
  weight?: number;
}

Routes patients through optimal paths based on:

• Behavioral scoring
• Response timing
• Appointment context
• Historical data

📊 Analytics & Optimization

Patient Behavioral Scoring

interface PatientProfile {
  responseStyle: 'quick' | 'detailed' | 'minimal' | 'emoji_heavy';
  engagementScore: number;  // 0-100
  noShowRisk: number;       // 0-100
  conversationTone: 'formal' | 'casual' | 'friendly';
  languagePreference: 'auto' | 'english' | 'arabic';
}

A/B Testing Framework

interface TreeExperiment {
  controlTreeId: string;
  variantTreeId: string;
  trafficSplit: number;    // Percentage for variant
  metrics: ConversionGoals;
  results: ExperimentResults;
}

🎛️ Advanced Configuration

Creating Custom Trees

// Create a new tree
const tree = await prisma.reminderTree.create({
  data: {
    clinicId: 'your-clinic-id',
    name: 'Custom Journey',
    description: 'Your custom patient journey',
    triggerType: 'booking_created',
    isActive: true
  }
});

// Add nodes with complex logic
await prisma.treeNode.create({
  data: {
    treeId: tree.id,
    name: 'Smart Condition',
    nodeType: 'condition',
    conditions: JSON.stringify([
      {
        type: 'engagement_score',
        operator: 'gt',
        value: 70,
        weight: 0.6
      },
      {
        type: 'no_show_risk',
        operator: 'lt',
        value: 30,
        weight: 0.4
      }
    ])
  }
});
