🎉 Major improvements: Fix AI errors, add Excel export, enhance meetings

[ashfakshibli]

✅ Fixed AI Generation Issues:

• Simplified Gemini prompt to prevent 500 errors
• Added retry logic with exponential backoff (3 attempts)
• Implemented fallback schedule generation when AI fails
• Enhanced error handling and user feedback

✅ Excel Export with Clockify Reports API:

• Added official Clockify Reports API integration
• Fallback to manual processing if Reports API unavailable
• Professional Excel formatting with date grouping
• Shows export method used (API vs manual)

✅ Enhanced Meeting Scheduling:

• Detailed meeting configuration (day, start/end time, description)
• Consistent weekly meeting placement at exact times
• User-friendly input prompts with validation
• Integration with AI prompt for fixed meeting times

✅ Improved Time Distribution:

• Strict weekly hour validation (e.g., 160h for 4 weeks @ 8h/day)
• Enhanced Gemini prompt for even distribution across weeks
• Post-processing validation to detect distribution issues
• Weekly breakdown analysis and reporting

✅ User Experience Improvements:

• Clear configuration summary with meeting details
• Progress indicators during workflow execution
• Better error messages and recovery options
• Export method transparency (API vs fallback)

✅ Technical Enhancements:

• API discovery methods for exploring Clockify capabilities
• Comprehensive error handling and logging
• Fault-tolerant architecture with graceful degradation
• Updated documentation with implementation guide

🧹 Cleanup:

• Removed obsolete test files
• Added Excel files to .gitignore
• Enhanced API timeout handling
• Professional code documentation

[nitpick] Mixing print for retry logging while using logging.warning elsewhere can be inconsistent. Use the logging framework for all retry and error messages.

Suggested change

	print(f"🔄 Retrying AI generation (attempt {attempt + 1}/{max_retries}) in {delay}s...")
	logging.info(f"🔄 Retrying AI generation (attempt {attempt + 1}/{max_retries}) in {delay}s...")

Deleting time entries in a tight loop issues one HTTP request per entry, which may be slow for large sets. Consider batch or asynchronous deletion to improve throughput.
