# /build — Build & Schedule Workouts
The user will describe what they need (e.g., "plan next week", "build a 4-week block", "create a long run for Saturday", "I need a tempo workout tomorrow").
Calendar creation requires Intervals.icu. With Strava alone, build the plan and present portable workout text, but do not claim it was scheduled.
## Step 1: Read knowledge base
Read these coaching files to inform workout design:
- `knowledge/periodization.md` — phase structure, block design, intensity ordering
- `knowledge/workout-types.md` — workout definitions, RPE targets, work:rest ratios
- `knowledge/volume-progression.md` — safe ramp rates, recovery week placement
- `knowledge/long-runs.md` — if building long runs or multi-day plans
- `knowledge/muscular-endurance.md` — if building ME sessions
- `knowledge/strength-training.md` — if scheduling strength work alongside running
## Step 2: Gather context
Fetch data using MCP tools (call them directly, in parallel where possible):
- Fitness endpoint for the last 14 days — current CTL/ATL/TSB trend
- Activities endpoint for the last 14 days — recent training load and volume
- Events endpoint for the date range the user is asking about — existing planned workouts
- Wellness endpoint for the last 7 days — sleep, HRV, fatigue trends
## Step 3: Design the plan
Based on the user's request and the data:
- Respect current fitness level and volume progression (no >10% weekly increase)
- Follow periodization principles (easy/hard altern
