Build a calendar conflict-resolution agent with Nylas

Short summary

A tutorial on building a calendar conflict-resolution agent using Nylas Agent Accounts, where the agent owns its own calendar and mailbox to detect overlapping events and automatically renegotiate with affected participants. It covers provisioning an Agent Account, using event webhooks for conflict detection, and implementing custom resolution logic since Nylas has no built-in conflict-finding endpoint. The agent emails losers from its own address and threads replies correctly.

• •Nylas Agent Accounts give AI agents their own calendar and mailbox via a standard grant_id abstraction
• •Conflict detection is custom code comparing event start/end times, triggered by event.created/updated/deleted webhooks
• •Scheduler and availability endpoints aren't supported for Agent Accounts, so all conflict logic lives in your app
