+## Prevent Circular Dependencies Between Packages
+
+**Impact: CRITICAL**
+
+Circular dependencies between packages cause build failures, type errors, and make the codebase unmaintainable. The dependency graph must be acyclic, with clear layers from low-level utilities up to high-level features.
+
+The dependency hierarchy (from lowest to highest):
+```
+packages/lib (lowest - no feature dependencies)
+  ↓
+packages/app-store
+  ↓
+packages/features
+  ↓
+packages/trpc
+  ↓
+apps/web (highest - can depend on all packages)
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- **Honest implementation**: The dependency graph accurately reflects what code depends on what, with no hidden or circular relationships that create false expectations
+- **Predictable behavior**: Code behaves as the dependency structure suggests - no surprises from circular imports
+- **Clear mental model**: Developers can reason about the system without tracking complex circular relationships
+- **Build reliability**: No circular dependency errors during compilation or bundling
+- **Easier testing**: Lower-level packages can be tested independently without pulling in the entire codebase
+
+### `packages/lib`
+
+**Rules:**
+1. No files in `packages/lib` import from `@calcom/app-store` or `../app-store/**`
+2. No files in `packages/lib` import from `@calcom/features` or `../features/**`
+3. No files in `packages/lib` import from `@calcom/trpc` or `../trpc/**`
+4. No files in `packages/lib` import from `@trpc/server`
+5. **BONUS:** No repository files allowed in `packages/lib` (repositories belong in features or app-store)
+
+**Incorrect:**
+
+```typescript
+// Bad - lib importing from features
+import { getBooking } from "@calcom/features/bookings";
+import { EventRepository } from "@calcom/features/events/repositories";
+
+// Bad - lib importing from app-store
+import { googleCalendarHandler } from "@calcom/app-store/googlecalendar";
+
+// Bad - lib importing from trpc
+import { router } from "@calcom/trpc/server/trpc";
+```
+
+**Correct:**
+
+```typescript
+// Good - lib only imports from other lib files or external packages
+import { logger } from "@calcom/lib/logger";
+import { prisma } from "@calcom/prisma";
+import type { User } from "@prisma/client";
+```
+
+### `packages/app-store`
+
+**Rules:**
+6. No files in `packages/app-store` import from `@calcom/features` or `../features/**`
+7. No files in `packages/app-store` import from `@calcom/trpc` or `../trpc/**`
+
+**Incorrect:**
+
+```typescript
+// Bad - app-store importing from features
+import { BookingService } from "@calcom/features/bookings/services";
+
+// Bad - app-store importing from trpc
+import { publicProcedure } from "@calcom/trpc/server/trpc";
+```
+
+**Correct:**
+
+```typescript
+// Good - app-store imports from lib and prisma
+import { logger } from "@calcom/lib/logger";
+import { prisma } from "@calcom/prisma";
+import type { Credential } from "@prisma/client";
+```
+
+### `packages/features`
+
+**Rules:**
+8. No files in `packages/features` import from `@calcom/trpc` or `../trpc/**`
+9. No files in `packages/features` import from `@calcom/web` or `@calcom/web/**`
+10. No files in `packages/features` import from `../../apps/web/**`
+
+**Incorrect:**
+
+```typescript
+// Bad - features importing from trpc
+import { router } from "@calcom/trpc/server/trpc";
+
+// Bad - features importing from web app
+import { getServerSession } from "@calcom/web/lib/auth";
+import { WebComponent } from "../../apps/web/components/WebComponent";
+```
+
+**Correct:**
+
+```typescript
+// Good - features import from lib, app-store, and prisma
+import { logger } from "@calcom/lib/logger";
+import { prisma } from "@calcom/prisma";
+import { googleCalendarHandler } from "@calcom/app-store/googlecalendar";
+```
+
+### `packages/trpc`
+
+**Rules:**
+11. No files in `packages/trpc` import from `../apps/web/**`
+
+**Incorrect:**
+
+```typescript
+// Bad - trpc importing from web app
+import { getServerSession } from "../../apps/web/lib/auth";
+```
+
+**Correct:**
+
+```typescript
+// Good - trpc imports from features, lib, and prisma
+import { BookingService } from "@calcom/features/bookings/services";
+import { logger } from "@calcom/lib/logger";
+import { prisma } from "@calcom/prisma";
+```
+
+### `packages/testing`
+
+**Rules:**
+12. No files in `packages/testing` import from `@calcom/web` or `@calcom/web/**`
+13. No files in `packages/testing` import from `@calcom/features` or `@calcom/features/**`
+14. No files in `packages/testing` import from `../../apps/web/**`
+15. No files in `packages/testing` import from `../features/**`
+
+**Incorrect:**
+
+```typescript
+// Bad - testing importing from web or features
+import { WebComponent } from "@calcom/web/components";
+import { BookingService } from "@calcom/features/bookings";
+```
+
+**Correct:**
+
+```typescript
+// Good - testing imports from lib and prisma
+import { prisma } from "@calcom/prisma";
+import { logger } from "@calcom/lib/logger";
+```
+
+### `packages/platform/atoms`
+
+**Rules:**
+16. No files in `packages/platform/atoms` import from `@calcom/trpc` or `@calcom/trpc/**`

+```typescript
+// Bad - platform/atoms importing from trpc or web
+import { router } from "@calcom/trpc/server/trpc";
+import { trpc } from "../../trpc";
+import { WebComponent } from "@calcom/web";
+```
+
+**Correct:**
+
+```typescript
+// Good - platform/atoms imports from lib, features, and ui
+import { logger } from "@calcom/lib/logger";
+import { Button } from "@calcom/ui/components/button";
+import type { Booking } from "@calcom/features/bookings/types";
+```
+
+## Enforcement
+
+These rules should be enforced through:
+- ESLint rules that detect forbidden import paths
+- CI checks that fail on circular dependencies
+- Code review guidelines that flag violations
