docs: expand .cards — vision, comparisons, business rationale, open questions
26 cards covering:
- Project philosophy (session isolation, process discipline, dissipative structure)
- Comparisons (vs skill, vs dynamic workflow)
- Business rationale (FTE vs vendor, OPC, switching cost)
- Learning model (memory + skill + workflow)
- Self-improvement (reflective workflow, eval)
- Open questions (workflow granularity, human-in-the-loop)

uwf 的 graph 环路不限于负反馈(收敛),也可以是正反馈(发散)。引擎本身不带倾向——流转方向由 `$status` 和 graph 决定,反馈性质由 role 的设计意图决定。
**负反馈环(收敛)**:developer → reviewer → rejected → developer。reviewer 的 goal 是"找问题",产生修正力。稳定点是 `approved`,系统自然收敛到那里。特性:偏差越大修正越强,对扰动鲁棒。
**正反馈环(发散)**:proposer → challenger → "interesting" → proposer。challenger 的 goal 是"追问更深层的假设",每轮发散,一个想法激发更多想法。
终止条件不同:负反馈靠收敛自然到达稳定点;正反馈不会自己停,需要外部约束(轮次上限,或额外 role 判断"够了")。
每个 role 的 `$status` 就是误差信号(负反馈)或激励信号(正反馈),驱动系统向不同方向演化。Workflow author 真正在设计的是**在哪里放什么样的环**。
