Workflows or Assistant?
I am currently building an agent that mainly follows a script and captures information and sets up a meeting. I started with an assistant then started to play with the workflows. However, it seems workflows are not recommended? is that correct?

Yes, that's correct—Workflows are not recommended for new builds.
For your use case (scripted agent that captures info and sets meetings), use an Assistant instead.
To get started, go to your Vapi dashboard and click Create Assistant, then follow the prompts to define your script and information capture steps.
This approach is simpler and better supported for most scenarios (documentation). Sources: - Workflows quickstart - Assistants quickstart

The prompt for the assistant ends up being massive. How can I break it down into more manageable chunks?
