I’d call and ask, just to be sure. I was told that the AFCI was needed even in detached, this was last summer/fall

The workaround is using a blank AFCI device in the first box of each circuit, with armoured cable between the panel and box. Whole circuit is protected, but you can use all regular outlets

15Abis good for lights, but I’d have all the outlets as 20A. Just comes down to what and how much you plan to run
