AI Coding Instructions

• Keep event construction inside createSimpleEvent rather than rebuilding the event shape at call sites.
• Preserve the event fields and value formats expected by calendar consumers.
• Check the declared parameter and return types before adding fields to the created event.
• Update callers when changing the event shape so calendar rendering and event actions stay aligned.
