 ## Key Concepts
 
 - **Workflow**: YAML definition with roles, conditions, and a routing graph; stored as a CAS node identified by its XXH64 hash.
-- **Thread**: A single workflow execution (ULID). State is an immutable CAS chain; active threads are indexed in \`threads.yaml\`.
-- **Step**: One moderator→agent→extract cycle. Run \`uwf thread step\` repeatedly until \`$END\`.
-- **CAS**: Content-Addressed Storage — all nodes are immutable and identified by hash.
-- **Role**: Named actor with goal, capabilities, procedure, output, and frontmatter schema; the moderator routes between roles.
-- **Edge Prompt**: Required instruction on each graph edge — the moderator's dispatch message to the agent.
+- **Thread**: A running instance of a workflow; points to a chain of CAS step nodes.
+- **Step**: One moderator→agent→extract cycle; stored as a CAS node with output + detail refs.
+- **Turn**: Agent-internal interaction (within a single step); stored per-turn in the detail node.
+- **CAS**: Content-addressable store; every artifact (workflows, steps, details, turns) is hashed.
