🧠Pro Tip: AI Generation​
If you're using an AI agent like Trae or Cursor, you don't need to type all these commands manually. You can simply provide a JSON or a text description:
"Create a Chat domain with Message and Conversation entities. Messages should support text and images. Generate the full feature stack with real-time watch methods."
Zuraffa's MCP Server will handle the execution of all necessary zfa entity and zfa feature commands for you.
