lightweight = ["chat", "drive", "tasks", "people"]
```
Small but useful for basic operations.

### `default`
```toml
default = ["chat", "drive", "tasks", "automation", "cache", "directory"]
```
Balanced default configuration.

### `full`
```toml
full = [
    "chat", "people", "mail",
    "tasks", "calendar",
    "drive", "docs",
    "llm", "cache", "compliance"
]
```
Everything useful for a complete deployment.

## Common Scenarios

### 📱 Chat + Drive (Minimum Cloud)

```bash
cargo build --features "chat,drive" --no-default-features
```

**Use case:** Basic chat with file storage capabilities.

### 📊 Sheets + Drive

```bash
cargo build --features "sheet,drive" --no-default-features
```

cargo build --features "chat,llm" --no-default-features
```

**Use case:** Chat with local LLM integration (limited resources).

### 🏢 Office Suite
