BREAKING CHANGE: StepRecord now requires startedAtMs and completedAtMs fields.
StepEntry now requires durationMs field. Old CAS data without these fields is invalid.
- Add startedAtMs/completedAtMs to StepRecord and StepNodePayload
- Add durationMs to StepEntry (computed: completedAtMs - startedAtMs)
- Update STEP_NODE_SCHEMA to require timing fields as integers
- Record Date.now() before/after agent execution in createAgent
- Show duration in thread read headers (formatStepHeader)
- Update existing test fixtures with timing fields
Replace all JSONata/ConditionDefinition/ConditionalEdge references with
status-based routing terminology across 8 files:
- README.md, CLAUDE.md: moderator description, key terms
- docs/architecture.md: dependency jsonata→mustache, evaluate signature
- docs/wf-stateless-design.md: type definitions, routing context
- packages/workflow-moderator/README.md: full rewrite for new API
- packages/workflow-protocol/README.md: Target type, remove Transition
- packages/workflow-dashboard/context.md: StatusEdge, graph type
- docs/builtin-agent-research.md: stale JSONata references
When a role participates for the first time (e.g. committer), it previously
only received the system prompt + last step output, missing the full thread
history. This caused hallucination as the role had to guess what happened.
Changes:
- build-continuation-prompt.ts: detect first-time roles and include all
steps' meta + content for last 2-3 steps (within quota)
- context.ts: add isFirstVisit detection helper
- types.ts: add isFirstVisit field to AgentContext
- hermes.ts: pass isFirstVisit through to prompt builder
Fixes#473
This commit implements issue #456, adding two related capabilities to the uwf CLI:
1. **Background execution mode** for `uwf thread step` (via `--background` flag)
- Spawns agent execution in a detached background process
- Returns immediately with thread ID and background status
- Maintains marker files to track running processes
- Supports `--count` option to run multiple steps in background
- Prevents concurrent execution of the same thread
2. **Running threads query** command (`uwf thread running`)
- Lists all threads currently executing in background
- Returns thread ID, workflow, current role, PID, and start time
- Automatically filters out stale markers (dead processes)
- Empty list when no threads are running
**Key changes:**
- **workflow-protocol**: Added `RunningThreadItem`, `RunningThreadsOutput` types
Updated `StepOutput` to include `background: boolean | null` field
- **cli-workflow/background**: New module for process management
- Marker file creation/deletion (atomic operations)
- PID liveness checking
- Stale marker cleanup
- Running threads query
- **cli-workflow/commands/thread**:
- Updated `cmdThreadStep` to support `--background` and `--_background-worker` flags
- Added `cmdThreadStepBackground` for spawning detached processes
- Added `cmdThreadRunning` to list running threads
- Updated `cmdThreadKill` to terminate background processes
- **cli-workflow/cli**: Added CLI routing for new commands and flags
**Integration:**
- `uwf thread kill` now terminates background processes before archiving
- Foreground execution checks for existing background process and fails if found
- Background worker creates/cleans up marker files automatically
- Marker files stored in `~/.uncaged/workflow/running/*.json`

- Root README: add all 9 packages to table, update architecture diagram,
refresh CLI reference from uwf --help
- New READMEs for 8 packages (cli-workflow, workflow-protocol,
workflow-moderator, workflow-agent-kit, workflow-agent-hermes,
workflow-agent-builtin, workflow-agent-claude-code, workflow-dashboard)
- Updated workflow-util README to match current exports
- All API sections verified against src/index.ts exports

- StepRecord adds edgePrompt field (backward compat: defaults to "")
- StepNode CAS schema includes edgePrompt
- writeStepNode persists ctx.edgePrompt
- buildHistory exposes edgePrompt in StepContext
- buildBuiltinMessages reconstructs multi-turn moderator↔agent conversation:
system = role prompt + output format (stable prefix)
per prior visit: user (edgePrompt + inter-step summary) + assistant (output)
current: user (edgePrompt + recent summary)
- Zero extra persistence — pure function of CAS chain
- Stable prefix for LLM prompt cache hits
- 10 builtin tests pass, all other package tests pass
Agent CLI outputs plain CAS hash (not JSON), engine parses plain hash.
StepOutput no longer carries sessionId — session info is already in CAS detail.
Keeps the valuable parts of #385: sessionId in AgentRunResult (process-internal),
continue support, and frontmatter retry loop.
Breaking changes:
- AgentRunResult now requires sessionId field
- AgentOptions now requires continue function
- Agent CLI outputs JSON {stepHash, sessionId} instead of plain CAS hash
- Engine parses JSON output (with legacy CAS hash fallback)
New features:
- Frontmatter validation retry: if agent output lacks valid frontmatter,
engine calls agent.continue() up to 2 times with correction message
- Session tracking: sessionId flows from agent → engine → StepOutput
- Hermes agent: session parse failure is now a hard error (no raw text fallback)
- Hermes agent: supports --resume for continue sessions
Closes#384
Breaking change per review:
- Remove systemPrompt from RoleDefinition entirely
- identity/prepare/execute/report are now required (string, not nullable)
- Remove all legacy fallback logic in buildRolePrompt
- Simplify validate.ts, workflow.ts materialize
- Migrate all test fixtures and example workflows
Refs #359
- Extend RoleDefinition with identity, prepare, execute, report fields
- Make systemPrompt optional (nullable) for four-phase workflows
- Update ROLE_DEFINITION JSON Schema (all new fields optional)
- Update validate.ts to accept new fields
- Update workflow.ts to strip null fields before CAS storage
- Update thread read to prefer identity over systemPrompt
- Add --version flag to uwf CLI
- Bump all packages to 0.5.0
Refs #359
Make AgentFn<Opt> always take a mandatory options argument, removing
the void conditional overload. Simplify createAgentAdapter, restore
exports needed by tests, and fix CLI test bundles to use cas.put
instead of disallowed @uncaged/* imports.

- Add systemPrompt to WorkflowRoleDescriptor (protocol)
- Propagate systemPrompt through buildDescriptor and validateWorkflowDescriptor
- Display system prompt as collapsible <details> in RoleCard
- Remove Gitea npm registry, use npmjs.org
- changeset publish works natively with npmjs
- release script: build + test + changeset publish
- Remove custom release.sh, all via changesets
- All @uncaged/* packages → 0.4.0
- Internal deps: workspace:* → workspace:^ (resolves to ^0.4.0 on publish)
- Fix exports: add 'bun' condition for local dev (src), 'import' for consumers (dist)
- Remove stale 'main: src/index.ts' from 6 packages
- Fix publish.sh topo sort to match workspace:^ prefix
星月 <xingyue@shazhou.work>
Packages without exports.types pointed main/types to src/ which
doesn't exist in published tarballs. Now all packages have:
exports."." = { types: dist/index.d.ts, import: src/index.ts }
Bump to 0.3.18.
