chore: remove unused build scripts

All packages are pure Bun/TS — no build step needed.
The build scripts were all placeholder `echo 'TODO'` anyway.

+# @uncaged/workflow
+
+A workflow engine that executes single-file ESM bundles. Each workflow is a self-contained `.esm.js` file identified by its XXH64 hash (Crockford Base32).
+
+## Core Concepts
+
+| Concept | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| **Workflow** | A single-file ESM module exporting `run` (workflow function) and `descriptor` (metadata). Identified by its XXH64 hash. |
+| **Bundle** | The physical `.esm.js` file stored in `~/.uncaged/workflow/bundles/`. |
+| **Thread** | A single execution of a workflow, identified by a ULID. Persisted as `.data.jsonl` + `.info.jsonl`. |
+| **Role** | A named actor within a workflow. Each role produces output with typed `meta`. Roles live inside template packages (`src/roles/`). |
+| **Registry** | `workflow.yaml` — maps workflow names to current/historical bundle hashes. |
+| **CAS** | Content-Addressed Storage — bundles are immutable and addressed by hash. |
+
+## Monorepo Packages
+
+```
+packages/
+  workflow/                      # @uncaged/workflow — core lib (types, engine, hash, ULID, registry)
+  cli-workflow/                  # @uncaged/cli-workflow — CLI (`uncaged-workflow` command)
+  workflow-template-develop/     # @uncaged/workflow-template-develop — develop workflow template (includes roles)
+  workflow-template-solve-issue/ # @uncaged/workflow-template-solve-issue — solve-issue workflow template (includes roles)

+  workflow-agent-llm/            # @uncaged/workflow-agent-llm — LLM agent adapter
+  workflow-util-agent/           # @uncaged/workflow-util-agent — agent utilities (buildAgentPrompt, spawnCli)
+```
+
+Managed with **bun workspace** using the `workspace:*` protocol.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies
+bun install
+
+# Build all packages
+bun run build
+
+# Register a workflow bundle
+uncaged-workflow workflow add solve-issue dist/packages/workflow-template-solve-issue/solve-issue.esm.js
+
+# Run a workflow
+uncaged-workflow run solve-issue --prompt "Fix bug #42"
+```
+
+## CLI Usage
+
+```bash
+uncaged-workflow help              # Show all commands
+uncaged-workflow workflow list     # List registered workflows
+uncaged-workflow run <name>        # Start a workflow thread
+uncaged-workflow thread list       # List all threads
+uncaged-workflow thread show <id>  # Inspect a thread
+uncaged-workflow skill             # Agent-consumable reference docs
+```
+
+See `uncaged-workflow help` for the full command reference.
+
+## Development
+
+```bash
+bun run check    # Biome lint + format check
+bun run format   # Auto-format with Biome
+bun test         # Run tests
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+See [docs/architecture.md](docs/architecture.md) for the full design — three-phase engine loop, bundle contract, storage layout, and design decisions.
