+## Specification
+
+# Salesforce Custom Report Type Metadata Knowledge
+
+## Overview
+Custom Report Types (CRTs) define the **data framework** for Salesforce reports. They specify a primary object, up to 3 related objects, the relationship (join) between them, and which fields are available in the report builder.
+
+## Purpose
+- Enable reporting across custom objects and custom relationships not covered by standard report types
+- Curate a focused set of fields for report builders (including fields reached via lookup)
+- Control inner/outer join behavior to include or exclude primary records without related records
+
+## Configuration
+
+**File extension:** `.reportType-meta.xml`. The file basename is the report type's developer name (e.g. `AccountsWithProjects.reportType-meta.xml`). Each CRT is a single file, not nested under an object folder.
+
+### Key Elements
+
+Top-level `<ReportType>` children:
+
+| Element | Required | Notes |
+|---------|----------|-------|
+| `<fullName>` | Yes | API identifier; must match the file name. Letters, numbers, underscores; must begin with a letter; no spaces; no trailing underscore; no consecutive underscores |
+| `<label>` | Yes | Human-friendly name shown in the report type picker |
+| `<description>` | Recommended | State the business "why" — who uses this and what they learn |
+| `<baseObject>` | Yes | API name of the primary object (e.g. `Account`, `Project__c`). Cannot be changed after initial creation. All objects, including custom and external, are supported (external objects from API 38.0+) |
+| `<category>` | Recommended | Report builder category — see `references/category-values.md` |
+| `<deployed>` | Yes | `true` to expose to users; `false` while building/iterating |
+| `<join>` | Conditional | Adds a related object and its join behavior. Nest further `<join>` blocks for deeper relationships |
+| `<sections>` | Recommended | Groups of columns available to the report type. Though not strictly required, a report without columns isn't useful |
+
+`<sections>` (group of columns) sub-elements:
+
+| Element | Required | Notes |
+|---------|----------|-------|
+| `<masterLabel>` | Yes | Section heading shown in the report builder |
+| `<columns>` | Conditional | One per field exposed in the section |
+
+`<columns>` (single field) sub-elements:
+
+| Element | Required | Notes |
+|---------|----------|-------|
+| `<field>` | Yes | Field API name (or dotted lookup-traversal path) |
+| `<table>` | Yes | The object the field belongs to — base object name or dotted relationship path |
+| `<checkedByDefault>` | Yes | `true` if the column is selected by default in the report builder |
+| `<displayNameOverride>` | No | Custom column label shown in the report builder, overriding the field's default label |
+
+## Critical Rules (Read First)
+
+### Rule 1: If `<fullName>` Is Present, It Must Match the File Name
+In source format, `fullName` is inherited from `Metadata` and derived from the file name, so the `<fullName>` element is technically optional. The repo convention is to include it. **If you include `<fullName>`, its value must equal the file name (everything before `.reportType-meta.xml`) exactly — same characters, same casing, same underscores.**
+
+**Wrong** — file name and `<fullName>` differ:
+- File: `account_projects.reportType-meta.xml`
+- `<fullName>AccountProjects</fullName>`
+  (Mismatch: file uses `account_projects`, fullName uses `AccountProjects`)
+
+**Right** — file name and `<fullName>` are identical:
+- File: `AccountProjects.reportType-meta.xml`
+- `<fullName>AccountProjects</fullName>`
+
+### Rule 2: Join Semantics — `outerJoin` Controls Inclusion
+
+Each `<join>` block has an `<outerJoin>` element that determines which primary records appear in the report:
+
+| `<outerJoin>` value | Behavior | Report Builder Label |
+|---------------------|----------|----------------------|
+| `false` | Inner join — only primary records that HAVE at least one related record | "Each 'A' record must have at least one related 'B' record" |
+| `true` | Outer join — all primary records, with or without related records | "'A' records may or may not have related 'B' records" |
+
+**Default when unspecified:** Use `true` (outer join) when the user wants to see all primary records regardless of children. Use `false` when the report only makes sense if children exist.
+
+### Rule 3: Each Object Needs Its Own `<sections>` Block
+
+Every object in the CRT (primary + each joined object) must have a corresponding `<sections>` block that lists the fields exposed for reporting. Without a section for an object, none of its fields appear in the report builder.
+
+- `<masterLabel>` on each section is the section heading in the report builder
+- `<columns>` entries list the fields — each with a `<field>` (API name) and `<table>` (object API name)
+- For fields reached via lookup, use the relationship path in `<field>` (e.g. `Owner.Name` with `<table>` set to the owning object)
+
+### Rule 4: Field API Names, Not Labels
+
+Use exact API names for fields: standard fields use their defined names (`Name`, `CreatedDate`, `OwnerId`), custom fields use `Field__c`. Custom objects must include `__c`.
+
+**Wrong:**
+- `<field>Account Name</field>`
+
+**Right:**
+- `<field>Name</field>` with `<table>Account</table>`
+
+### Rule 5: Relationship Path for Joined Objects
+
+When adding a `<join>`, the `<relationship>` element must use the **child relationship name** as defined on the lookup/master-detail field pointing from the child object to the parent. For custom relationships, this typically ends in `__r`.
+
+**Wrong:**
+- `<relationship>Project</relationship>` (for a custom child relationship)
+
+**Right:**
+- `<relationship>Projects__r</relationship>` (child relationship name)
+- `<relationship>Contacts</relationship>` (standard, non-custom child relationship)
+
+### Rule 6: Maximum 4 Objects Total in a Join Chain
+
+A single CRT can join a maximum of **four objects total** (the base object + up to 3 additional objects via nested `<join>` blocks).
+
+### Rule 7: No Inner Join After an Outer Join
+
+Once the join chain contains an outer join (`<outerJoin>true</outerJoin>`), every subsequent nested join must also be an outer join. An inner join that follows an outer join earlier in the sequence is not allowed.
+
+**Wrong:**
+```xml
+<join>
+    <outerJoin>true</outerJoin>        <!-- outer join first -->
+    <relationship>Contacts</relationship>
+    <join>
+        <outerJoin>false</outerJoin>   <!-- WRONG: inner join after outer -->
+        <relationship>Assets</relationship>
+    </join>
+</join>
+```
+
+**Right:**
+```xml
+<join>
+    <outerJoin>true</outerJoin>
+    <relationship>Contacts</relationship>
+    <join>
+        <outerJoin>true</outerJoin>    <!-- outer stays outer -->
+        <relationship>Assets</relationship>
+    </join>
+</join>
+```
+
+### Rule 8: `<table>` for Joined Objects Uses Dotted Path
+
+In `<sections>`, the `<table>` element identifies which object in the join chain each column belongs to. For the base object, use the object name directly (e.g. `Account`). For joined objects, use the **dotted relationship path** from the base object.
+
+| Object in chain | `<table>` value |
+|-----------------|-----------------|
+| Base (Account) | `Account` |
+| First join (Account → Contacts) | `Account.Contacts` |
+| Nested join (Account → Contacts → Assets) | `Account.Contacts.Assets` |
+
+### Rule 9: Field Paths Can Traverse Lookups
+
+`<field>` values may reference fields reached via lookup relationships using dot notation — for example `Owner.Email` (owner User's email) or `ReportsTo.CreatedBy.Contact.Owner.MobilePhone`. The `<table>` must still be the object that owns the starting field.
+
+### Rule 10: Historical Trending Fields Use `_hst` Suffix
+
+For a field with `trackTrending=true`, the API name in `<field>` and `<table>` uses the `_hst` suffix:
+
+```xml
+<columns>
+    <checkedByDefault>false</checkedByDefault>
+    <field>Field2__c_hst</field>
+    <table>CustomTrendedObject__c.CustomTrendedObject__c_hst</table>
+</columns>
+```
+
+### Rule 11: Primary Object Cannot Be Changed After Deployment
+
+Once deployed, the `<baseObject>` of a CRT is locked. To change the primary object, create a new CRT and retire the old one.
+
+### Rule 12: `autogenerated` Is Reserved for Historical Trending
+
+The `<autogenerated>` element (API 29.0+) marks CRTs that Salesforce created automatically when historical trending was enabled on an object. Do not set this manually on hand-authored CRTs.
+
+## Generation Workflow
+
+### Step 1: Gather Requirements
+- Primary object API name (e.g. `Account`, `Project__c`)
+- Related objects and the relationship between each (which has the lookup/master-detail to which)
+- For each relationship: inner join (children required) or outer join (children optional)?
+- Which fields to expose per object — aim for task-relevant, not the full field list
+- Audience and category — where should this appear in the report builder picker?
+- Whether this ships as `deployed=true` now or stays `deployed=false` during iteration
+
+### Step 2: Examine Existing Examples
+- Look in the project for in-project CRT patterns
+- If existing report types have been retrieved from an org, compare against those structures
+
+### Step 3: Write the Specification
+Document before authoring:
+- `fullName` and `label`
+- `baseObject`
+- Category and `deployed` state
+- Join chain: for each related object — relationship name, outer vs inner join
+- Section layout: one section per object, ordered list of fields
+- Acceptance criteria: which records should appear when the report runs, which fields are available in the builder
+
+### Step 4: Author the Metadata File
+
+Start from the closest example in `examples/` and adapt it to the user's scenario:
+
+- Primary object only (no joins) → `examples/AccountsWithIndustry.reportType-meta.xml`
+- Outer join (primary records included even without children) → `examples/AccountsWithProjects.reportType-meta.xml`
+- Nested inner join (every level requires children) → `examples/AccountProjectsWithTasks.reportType-meta.xml`
+
+Name the file `<DeveloperName>.reportType-meta.xml`.
+
+### Step 5: Validate
+- Well-formed XML with correct namespace (`xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata"`)
+- File name (without `.reportType-meta.xml`) matches `<fullName>` when `<fullName>` is included
+- `<baseObject>` is a valid API name and the object is deployed
+- Every `<relationship>` uses the correct child relationship name (`__r` suffix for custom)
+- Each object referenced in `<sections>` is part of the CRT (primary or joined)
+- All `<field>` references exist on the parent `<table>` and use API names (not labels)
+- `<category>` is a valid Salesforce category value
+- `<deployed>` is `true` if users need to access the CRT immediately
+
+## Reference File Index
+
+| File | When to read |
+|------|--------------|
+| `examples/AccountsWithIndustry.reportType-meta.xml` | Step 2 / Step 4 — primary-object-only template |
+| `examples/AccountsWithProjects.reportType-meta.xml` | Step 2 / Step 4 — outer-join template (primary included even without children) |
+| `examples/AccountProjectsWithTasks.reportType-meta.xml` | Step 2 / Step 4 — nested inner-join template (every level requires children) |
+| `references/category-values.md` | Step 3 — to choose a valid `<category>` value from the `ReportTypeCategory` enum |
+| `references/errors-and-troubleshooting.md` | When fields don't appear in the report builder or join requirements conflict |
+
+## Verification Checklist
+
+### Universal Checks
+- [ ] File extension is `.reportType-meta.xml`
+- [ ] File basename satisfies the developer-name rules (begins with a letter, only letters/numbers/underscores, no spaces, no trailing underscore, no consecutive underscores)
+- [ ] If `<fullName>` is included, it matches the file basename exactly (same characters, casing, and underscores)
+- [ ] `<label>` is human-readable and under 40 characters
+- [ ] `<description>` explains the business purpose
+- [ ] `<baseObject>` uses a valid API name and that object is deployed
+- [ ] `<category>` is a valid `ReportTypeCategory` enum value
+- [ ] `<deployed>` is set appropriately (`true` for user access, `false` for in-progress iteration)
+- [ ] `<autogenerated>` is NOT set manually (reserved for historical-trending CRTs)
+
+### Join Checks
+- [ ] Each `<join>` uses the correct child **relationship name** (not the lookup field API name)
+- [ ] Custom relationships use `__r` suffix
+- [ ] `<outerJoin>` is set intentionally: `true` = optional children, `false` = required children
+- [ ] No inner join (`<outerJoin>false</outerJoin>`) appears after an outer join earlier in the sequence
+- [ ] Total object count (base + joins, including nested) is 4 or fewer
+
+### Section Checks
+- [ ] Every object in the CRT has a corresponding `<sections>` block
+- [ ] `<masterLabel>` on each section is descriptive
+- [ ] Every `<columns>` has both `<field>` (API name) and `<table>` (object API name or dotted path)
+- [ ] `<checkedByDefault>` is set for each column
+- [ ] `<table>` for base object is the object API name (e.g. `Account`)
+- [ ] `<table>` for joined objects uses the dotted relationship path (e.g. `Account.Projects__r`, `Account.Projects__r.Tasks__r`)
+- [ ] Field references use API names (not labels); custom fields use `__c`
+- [ ] Lookup traversal fields use dot notation (e.g. `Owner.Email`) with `<table>` set to the object owning the starting field
+- [ ] Historical trending fields use `_hst` suffix in both `<field>` and `<table>` when applicable
+- [ ] No duplicate fields within a section

+# `<category>` Values — `ReportTypeCategory` Enumeration
+
+The `category` value determines where the CRT appears in the report builder's "Create New Report Type" wizard. Use one of these Salesforce-defined values from the Metadata API `ReportTypeCategory` enum.
+
+| Category value | Typical use |
+|----------------|-------------|
+| `accounts` | Accounts & Contacts |
+| `opportunities` | Opportunities |
+| `forecasts` | Forecasts |
+| `cases` | Customer Support Reports |
+| `leads` | Leads |
+| `campaigns` | Campaigns |
+| `activities` | Activities |
+| `busop` | Business operations |
+| `products` | Price Books, Products and Assets |
+| `admin` | Administrative Reports |
+| `territory` | Territory management |
+| `territory2` | Territory management (Enterprise Territory Management) — API 31.0+ |
+| `usage_entitlement` | Usage entitlements |
+| `wdc` | Work.com / Calibration — API 29.0+ |
+| `calibration` | Calibration — API 29.0+ |
+| `other` | Other Reports (default for custom-object-based CRTs without a natural home) |
+| `content` | Content |
+| `quotes` | Quotes |
+| `individual` | Individual (privacy) — API 45.0+ |
+| `employee` | Employee — API 46.0+ |
+| `data_cloud` | Data Cloud — API 55.0+ |
+| `commerce` | Commerce — API 60.0+ |
+| `flow` | Flow — API 60.0+ |
+| `semantic_model` | Semantic model — API 60.0+ |
+
+**When in doubt:** Use `other` for custom-object-based CRTs.

+# Common Authoring Errors
+
+Read this when a generated `.reportType-meta.xml` is rejected during deployment or fields don't appear in the report builder. Use these to validate the authored XML before handing it off; deployment itself is outside this skill's scope.
+
+| Error | Cause | Fix |
+|-------|-------|-----|
+| `Invalid object name 'X'` on `<baseObject>` | Primary object doesn't exist or isn't deployed | Deploy the custom object before the CRT |
+| `Invalid relationship name 'X'` on `<join>` | Used the field API name instead of the child relationship name, or forgot `__r` | Use the child relationship name (e.g. `Projects__r` for a custom relationship) |
+| `Invalid field 'X' for object 'Y'` | Field doesn't exist on `<table>`, used label instead of API name, or field not yet deployed | Verify field API name; deploy dependent fields first |
+| `Invalid category value 'X'` | Typo or non-existent category | Use a valid `ReportTypeCategory` value (see `category-values.md`); use `other` for general-purpose custom-object CRTs |
+| Inner join after outer join | A nested `<join>` has `<outerJoin>false</outerJoin>` following an earlier outer join | Switch the nested join to `<outerJoin>true</outerJoin>`, or restructure so inner joins come first |
+| Fields from joined object not visible in report builder | `<table>` in `<sections>` for the joined object doesn't use the dotted relationship path | Change `<table>` to the full path (e.g. `Account.Projects__r` not `Project__c`) |
+| `Cannot change base object` on update | Attempted to change `<baseObject>` after initial deploy | Create a new CRT with the new primary object; retire the old one |
+| File not found / fullName mismatch | File name doesn't match `<fullName>` | Rename file so `<fullName>.reportType-meta.xml` matches |
+
+## Handling Conflicting Join Requirements
+
+When a user wants both "include primary records without children" AND "exclude children that lack their own children" — those constraints are inexpressible in a single CRT join chain (Rule 7 forbids inner-after-outer). Three workarounds:
+
+1. **All-outer + report-level filter** — keep all joins outer and filter at report time (e.g. `Case ID ≠ null`). Pragmatic, but every report author must remember the filter.
+2. **Flip the base object** — base on the deepest required object. Lose primary-without-children but gain the inner-join guarantee. Lookup fields on the new base let you traverse back up for context.
+3. **Two CRTs** — one all-outer for "all primary records," one inner-chained for "only primary records with full children." Users pick the right one.
+
+Surface this trade-off to the user rather than picking silently.
