⚡ Updated .gitignore to include additional Python, IDE, OS, and application-specific artifacts for better project cleanliness.
- Added a startup event in `api_server.py` to verify database connectivity and provide warnings if no workflows are found. - Implemented new API endpoints for fetching service categories and searching workflows by category, improving the API's usability and functionality. - Removed deprecated scripts and files to streamline the codebase and focus on the new FastAPI system.

### Intelligent Formatting System

Our system automatically converts technical filenames to user-friendly names:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Automatic transformations:
|
||||
2051_Telegram_Webhook_Automation_Webhook.json → "Telegram Webhook Automation"

0250_HTTP_Discord_Import_Scheduled.json → "HTTP Discord Import Scheduled"
|
||||
0966_OpenAI_Data_Processing_Manual.json → "OpenAI Data Processing Manual"

|
||||
```
|
||||
[ID]_[Service1]_[Service2]_[Purpose]_[Trigger].json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Smart Capitalization Rules
|
||||
- **HTTP** → HTTP (not Http)
|
||||
- **API** → API (not Api)
|
||||
- **webhook** → Webhook
|
||||
- **automation** → Automation

5. **Remove sensitive data** (credentials, personal URLs)
|
||||
|
||||
### Naming Guidelines
|
||||
- Use clear, descriptive names
|
||||
- Follow the established format: `[ID]_[Service]_[Purpose].json`
|
||||
- Maximum 80 characters when possible
|
||||
- Use underscores instead of spaces
