Unique: Implements triggers as first-class pieces with standardized lifecycle hooks (onEnable, onDisable, onTest) rather than hardcoding trigger logic in the core platform. This allows community members to contribute new trigger types (e.g., Kafka topics, WebSocket streams) without modifying the core engine. The trigger-helper service abstracts trigger registration and state management.
vs others: More flexible trigger model than Zapier (supports custom polling logic per trigger) and cleaner than n8n (trigger state is managed separately from flow execution, reducing coupling)
