+-- #262: Executive Meetings Requests/Approvals/Tasks removal cleanup.
+--
+-- Drops the two retired tables and scrubs orphaned rows from the
+-- surviving Executive Meetings tables that referenced them by string.
+-- Idempotent: safe to re-run. Wraps everything in a single transaction
+-- so a partial failure leaves the DB unchanged.
+--
+-- Run order:
+--   1) Apply this script to dev / prod databases.
+--   2) Run `pnpm --filter @workspace/db push` to confirm the Drizzle
+--      schema and the database are in sync (should be a no-op).
+--
+-- Run command (dev):
+--   psql "$DATABASE_URL" -f artifacts/api-server/scripts/cleanup-em-requests-tasks.sql
+
+BEGIN;
+
+-- 1. Notification preferences rows for retired event types.
+DELETE FROM executive_meeting_notification_prefs
+WHERE notification_type IN (
+  'request_submitted',
+  'request_approved',
+  'request_rejected',
+  'request_needs_edit',
+  'task_assigned',
+  'task_completed'
+);

+
+-- 3. Audit logs that targeted request/task entities.
+DELETE FROM executive_meeting_audit_logs
+WHERE entity_type IN ('request', 'task');
+
+-- 4. Drop the retired tables themselves. CASCADE removes any FK indices
+--    that referenced them; nothing in the surviving schema depends on
+--    these two tables.
