docs: update all documentation for status-based routing (#497)

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

# @uncaged/workflow
A stateless workflow engine driven by a single-step CLI. Workflows are YAML definitions with roles, JSONata routing conditions, and a directed graph. Threads are immutable CAS-linked chains — each `uwf thread step` runs one moderator→agent→extract cycle and exits.
A stateless workflow engine driven by a single-step CLI. Workflows are YAML definitions with roles, status-based routing, and a directed graph. Threads are immutable CAS-linked chains — each `uwf thread step` runs one moderator→agent→extract cycle and exits.
## Overview
This monorepo implements **uwf**, a workflow engine with no long-running daemon. You register YAML workflow definitions in a content-addressed store (CAS), start a thread with an initial prompt, then invoke `uwf thread step` repeatedly until the moderator routes to `$END`. Each step is a complete process: the moderator evaluates JSONata conditions to pick the next role, an external agent CLI produces frontmatter markdown output, and an extract pipeline validates or structures that output against the role's JSON Schema.

Workflow state lives entirely on disk under `~/.uncaged/workflow/`: CAS nodes for definitions and step payloads, `registry.yaml` for workflow name→hash mappings, and `threads.yaml` for active thread head pointers. Completed threads are archived to `history.jsonl`. Because there is no server process, workflows are easy to debug, fork, and inspect with ordinary CLI tools.
