An event is a server side rule expressed as a prompt. It is reusable across multiple streams, indexes, and deployments. You define it once and reference it everywhere.

Alert
Alert
An alert attaches an event to an active index. It defines delivery: webhook, WebSocket, or both. When the condition is met, the alert fires with a confidence score and a playable stream window.
