refactor(agent-builtin): reduce cognitive complexity in loop.ts

Refactored runBuiltinLoop function to reduce cognitive complexity from 30 to below 15 by extracting helper functions:

- shouldInjectDeadlineWarning: checks if deadline warning should be shown
- shouldProcessToolCalls: determines if tool calls should be processed
- extractFinalText: extracts last assistant message content
- injectDeadlineWarning: injects deadline warning message
- handleTextOnlyTurn: handles text-only turn logic
- handleToolCallTurn: handles tool call turn logic
- processLoopIteration: processes a single loop iteration

Added 24 new unit tests for the extracted helper functions, bringing total test count to 41 (all passing). All existing behavior is preserved.

Fixes #444

+# Sync README
+
+When updating README.md files in this monorepo, follow these conventions.
+
+## Scope
+
+- Root `README.md` — project overview and navigation hub
+- Per-package `packages/*/README.md` — each package self-contained
+
+## Root README Structure
+
+The root README should have these sections in order:
+
+1. **Title and one-liner** — stateless workflow engine driven by single-step CLI
+2. **Overview** — 2-3 paragraphs explaining what it does and key concepts
+3. **Architecture** — dependency layer diagram (text-based)
+4. **Packages** — table with ALL packages from packages/ directory, columns: Package, Description, Type (cli/lib/agent/app)
+5. **Quick Start** — install, build, register workflow, start thread, run step
+6. **CLI Reference** — brief command list, detailed usage in cli-workflow README
+7. **Development** — bun install / build / check / test
+
+## Per-Package README Structure
+
+Each package README should have:
+
+1. **Title** — package name
+2. **One-line description** — matching package.json
+3. **Overview** — what it does, where it sits in the architecture, dependencies
+4. **Installation** — bun add (for libs) or "included as binary" (for cli/agents)
+5. **API** (lib packages) — all exports from src/index.ts with type signatures, grouped by category, minimal usage examples
+6. **CLI Usage** (cli/agent packages) — command reference with examples
+7. **Internal Structure** — brief src/ file organization
+8. **Configuration** (if applicable)
+
+## Execution Steps
+
+### Step 1: Gather current state
+For each package read:
+- package.json (name, version, description, dependencies, bin)
+- src/index.ts (public API exports)
+- Existing README.md (preserve hand-written content worth keeping)
+
+### Step 2: Update root README
+- Ensure ALL packages in packages/ directory are listed in the table
+- Update CLI command reference from uwf --help output
+- Keep Quick Start examples valid
+
+### Step 3: Write/update each package README
+- Follow the per-package structure
+- API section MUST match actual src/index.ts exports — never invent
+- For agent packages: document CLI binary name, how it is invoked
+- For lib packages: document exported types and functions
+- Internal structure: list actual files in src/
+
+### Step 4: Verify
+- All relative links work
+- Package names match package.json
+- No references to removed/renamed packages
+- bun run build still passes
+
+## Guidelines
+
+- Only document what src/index.ts actually exports
+- Root README summarizes, package READMEs go into detail
+- Verify CLI examples against actual commands
+- Preserve existing good prose when updating
+- English for all README content

 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.
 
-## Package Map
+## Overview
 
-| Package | npm | Role |
-|---------|-----|------|
-| `cli-workflow` | `@uncaged/cli-workflow` | `uwf` CLI binary — thread lifecycle, workflow registry, CAS inspection, setup |
-| `workflow-protocol` | `@uncaged/workflow-protocol` | Shared TypeScript types (`WorkflowPayload`, `StepNodePayload`, `WorkflowConfig`, etc.) |
-| `workflow-moderator` | `@uncaged/workflow-moderator` | JSONata graph evaluator — determines next role or `$END` |
-| `workflow-agent-kit` | `@uncaged/workflow-agent-kit` | `createAgent` factory, context builder, two-layer extract pipeline |
-| `workflow-agent-hermes` | `@uncaged/workflow-agent-hermes` | `uwf-hermes` agent — spawns Hermes chat, captures session |
-| `workflow-util` | `@uncaged/workflow-util` | Crockford Base32, ULID, logger, frontmatter parsing |
+This monorepo implements **uwf**, a workflow engine with no long-running daemon. You register YAML workflow definitions in a content-addressed store (CAS), start a thread with an initial prompt, then invoke `uwf thread step` repeatedly until the moderator routes to `$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.
 
-External: [`@uncaged/json-cas`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@uncaged/json-cas) (CAS store + JSON Schema validation) + `@uncaged/json-cas-fs` (filesystem backend).
+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.
+
+Agents are pluggable CLI binaries (`uwf-hermes`, `uwf-builtin`, `uwf-claude-code`, or custom commands). The engine spawns the configured agent with `<thread-id>` and `<role>`, sets `UWF_EDGE_PROMPT` from the graph transition, and captures both the agent's markdown output and a detail CAS node for session replay.
+
+## Architecture
+
+Dependency layers (lower layers have no dependency on higher layers):
+
+```
+Layer 0 — Contract
+  workflow-protocol          Shared types and JSON Schema definitions
+
+Layer 1 — Shared infra
+  workflow-util              Encoding, IDs, logging, frontmatter, paths
+  workflow-moderator         JSONata graph evaluator
+
+Layer 2 — Agent framework
+  workflow-agent-kit         createAgent factory, context builder, extract pipeline
+
+Layer 3 — Agent implementations
+  workflow-agent-hermes      Hermes ACP agent (uwf-hermes)
+  workflow-agent-builtin     Built-in LLM + tools agent (uwf-builtin)
+  workflow-agent-claude-code Claude Code agent (uwf-claude-code)
+
+Layer 4 — CLI
+  cli-workflow               uwf binary — thread lifecycle, registry, CAS, setup
+
+App (uses protocol; not in the runtime engine stack)
+  workflow-dashboard         Web UI for visual workflow editing
+```
+
+External CAS: [`@uncaged/json-cas`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@uncaged/json-cas) (store API, hashing, schema validation) + `@uncaged/json-cas-fs` (filesystem backend).

+`uwf` CLI — thread lifecycle, workflow registry, CAS inspection, and setup.
+
+## Overview
+
+Layer 4 entry point for the workflow engine. The `uwf` binary orchestrates one step per invocation: load thread head from `threads.yaml`, run the moderator, spawn the configured agent CLI, run extract, append a CAS step node, and update the head pointer (or archive when `$END`).
+
+This package has no library `src/index.ts` — it is consumed as a CLI binary only.
+
+**Dependencies:** `@uncaged/json-cas`, `@uncaged/json-cas-fs`, `@uncaged/workflow-agent-kit`, `@uncaged/workflow-moderator`, `@uncaged/workflow-protocol`, `@uncaged/workflow-util`, `commander`, `dotenv`, `yaml`
+
+## Installation
+
+Included as the `uwf` binary when you install `@uncaged/cli-workflow`:
+
+```bash
+bun add -g @uncaged/cli-workflow
+# or from the monorepo:
+bun link packages/cli-workflow
+```
+
+## CLI Usage
+
+### Global options
+
+```
+-V, --version          Show version
+--format <json|yaml>   Output format (default: json)
+-h, --help             Show help

+
+`uwf-builtin` agent — built-in LLM agent with file read/write and shell tools.
+
+## Overview
+
+Layer 3 agent implementation. Runs an OpenAI-compatible chat completion loop with built-in tools (`read_file`, `write_file`, `run_command`). Uses the configured provider/model from `config.yaml`. Produces frontmatter markdown output and stores turn-by-turn session detail in CAS.
+
+Useful when you want a self-contained agent without an external CLI like Hermes or Claude Code.
+
+**Dependencies:** `@uncaged/json-cas`, `@uncaged/workflow-agent-kit`, `@uncaged/workflow-util`
+
+## Installation
+
+Included as the `uwf-builtin` binary when you install `@uncaged/workflow-agent-builtin`:
+
+```bash
+bun add -g @uncaged/workflow-agent-builtin
+```
+
+## CLI Usage
+
+Invoked by `uwf thread step`:
+
+```bash
+uwf-builtin <thread-id> <role>
+```
+
+Configure as default agent:
+
+```bash
+uwf setup --agent builtin

+
+All exports come from `src/index.ts`.
+
+### Agent factory
+
+```typescript
+function createBuiltinAgent(): () => Promise<void>
+function buildBuiltinMessages(ctx: AgentContext): ChatMessage[]
+```
+
+### LLM loop
+
+```typescript
+const BUILTIN_MAX_TURNS = 30;
+const BUILTIN_CONTINUE_MAX_TURNS = 5;
+
+function runBuiltinLoop(/* options: RunBuiltinLoopOptions */): Promise<RunBuiltinLoopResult>
+function chatCompletionWithTools(
+  provider: ResolvedLlmProvider,
+  messages: ChatMessage[],
+  tools: OpenAiToolDefinition[],
+): Promise<LlmAssistantResponse>
+```
+
+`RunBuiltinLoopOptions` and `RunBuiltinLoopResult` are internal to `loop.ts` and not re-exported from `index.ts`.
+
+### Tools
+
+```typescript
+function getBuiltinTools(): readonly BuiltinTool[]
+function executeBuiltinTool(
+  name: string,
+  args: Record<string, unknown>,
+  ctx: ToolContext,
+): Promise<string>
+```
+
+### Session and detail
+
+```typescript
+function initSessionDir(storageRoot: string): Promise<void>
+function appendSessionTurn(storageRoot: string, sessionId: string, turn: BuiltinTurnPayload): Promise<void>
+function readSessionTurns(storageRoot: string, sessionId: string): Promise<BuiltinTurnPayload[]>
+function removeSession(storageRoot: string, sessionId: string): Promise<void>
+function registerBuiltinSchemas(store: Store): Promise<BuiltinSchemaHashes>
+function storeBuiltinDetail(store: Store, payload: BuiltinDetailPayload): Promise<string>
+```
+
+### Types
+
+```typescript
+type ChatMessage = /* system | user | assistant | tool */;
+type LlmAssistantResponse = { content: string | null; toolCalls: LlmToolCall[] | null };
+type LlmToolCall = { id: string; name: string; arguments: string };
+type BuiltinTool = { name: string; description: string; parameters: Record<string, unknown> };
+type ToolContext = { cwd: string; storageRoot: string };
+type BuiltinDetailPayload = { /* session turns, model, timestamps */ };
+type BuiltinLoopTurn = { /* single loop iteration record */ };
+type BuiltinToolCallRecord = { /* tool call audit */ };
+type BuiltinToolResultRecord = { /* tool result audit */ };

+## Configuration
+
+Requires a configured OpenAI-compatible provider and model in `~/.uncaged/workflow/config.yaml` (via `uwf setup`). API keys are loaded from `~/.uncaged/workflow/.env`.
+
+Tools run with the current working directory as `ToolContext.cwd` (typically the directory where `uwf thread step` was invoked).

+# @uncaged/workflow-agent-claude-code
+
+`uwf-claude-code` agent — spawns the Claude Code CLI and captures session detail.
+
+## Overview
+
+Layer 3 agent implementation. Spawns the `claude` CLI with a composed system prompt (role definition, task, prior steps, edge prompt). Parses stream or JSON stdout, caches session IDs for multi-turn continuation, and stores raw output plus structured detail in CAS.
+
+**Dependencies:** `@uncaged/json-cas`, `@uncaged/workflow-agent-kit`
+
+## Installation
+
+Included as the `uwf-claude-code` binary when you install `@uncaged/workflow-agent-claude-code`:
+
+```bash
+bun add -g @uncaged/workflow-agent-claude-code
+```
+
+Requires the `claude` CLI on `PATH`.
+
+## CLI Usage
+
+Invoked by `uwf thread step`:
+
+```bash
+uwf-claude-code <thread-id> <role>
+```
+
+Configure or override the agent:
+
+```bash
+uwf setup --agent claude-code
+uwf thread step <thread-id> --agent uwf-claude-code
+```
+
+Environment variables set by the engine:
+
+| Variable | Purpose |
+|----------|---------|
+| `UWF_EDGE_PROMPT` | Moderator edge instruction for this step |
+
+## API
+
+All exports come from `src/index.ts`.
+
+### Agent factory
+
+```typescript
+function createClaudeCodeAgent(): () => Promise<void>
+function buildClaudeCodePrompt(ctx: AgentContext): string
+```
+
+### Session detail
+
+```typescript
+function parseClaudeCodeStreamOutput(stdout: string): ClaudeCodeParsedResult | null
+function parseClaudeCodeJsonOutput(stdout: string): ClaudeCodeParsedResult | null
+function storeClaudeCodeDetail(
+  store: Store,
+  parsed: ClaudeCodeParsedResult,
+  sessionId: string,
+): Promise<string>
+function storeClaudeCodeRawOutput(store: Store, rawOutput: string): Promise<string>
+```
+
+## Usage (library)
+
+```typescript
+import { createClaudeCodeAgent, buildClaudeCodePrompt } from "@uncaged/workflow-agent-claude-code";
+
+const main = createClaudeCodeAgent();
+void main();
+```
+
+## Internal Structure
+
+```
+src/
+├── index.ts
+├── cli.ts              Binary entrypoint
+├── claude-code.ts      createClaudeCodeAgent, buildClaudeCodePrompt, spawn logic
+├── session-detail.ts   Parse stdout, store CAS detail nodes
+├── schemas.ts          Claude Code detail CAS schemas
+└── types.ts            ClaudeCodeParsedResult, message shapes
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+Uses session caching from `@uncaged/workflow-agent-kit` (`getCachedSessionId` / `setCachedSessionId`). No separate config file — relies on the Claude Code CLI's own authentication.
+
+Maximum turns per invocation: 90 (constant in `claude-code.ts`).

+
+`uwf-hermes` agent — spawns Hermes chat via ACP and captures session detail.
+
+## Overview
+
+Layer 3 agent implementation. Wraps the Hermes CLI using the Agent Client Protocol (ACP). On first visit to a role it sends a composed prompt (role definition, task, history, edge prompt); on continuation it resumes the cached session. Session transcripts and raw output are stored as CAS detail nodes.
+
+**Dependencies:** `@uncaged/json-cas`, `@uncaged/workflow-agent-kit`, `@uncaged/workflow-protocol`, `@uncaged/workflow-util`
+
+## Installation
+
+Included as the `uwf-hermes` binary when you install `@uncaged/workflow-agent-hermes`:
+
+```bash
+bun add -g @uncaged/workflow-agent-hermes
+```
+
+Requires the `hermes` CLI on `PATH`.
+
+## CLI Usage
+
+Invoked by `uwf thread step` (not typically run directly):
+
+```bash
+uwf-hermes <thread-id> <role>
+```
+
+Environment variables set by the engine:
+
+| Variable | Purpose |
+|----------|---------|
+| `UWF_EDGE_PROMPT` | Moderator edge instruction for this step |
+
+Configure as the default agent via `uwf setup --agent hermes`.
+
+Override per step:
+
+```bash
+uwf thread step <thread-id> --agent uwf-hermes
+```
+
+## API
+
+All exports come from `src/index.ts`.
+
+### Agent factory
+
+```typescript
+function createHermesAgent(): () => Promise<void>
+function buildHermesPrompt(ctx: AgentContext): string
+```
+
+### ACP client
+
+```typescript
+class HermesAcpClient {
+  // Spawns hermes, handles JSON-RPC over stdio
+}
+```
+
+## Usage (library)
+
+```typescript
+import { createHermesAgent, buildHermesPrompt } from "@uncaged/workflow-agent-hermes";
+
+// CLI entry (src/cli.ts):
+const main = createHermesAgent();
+void main();
+```
+
+## Internal Structure
+
+```
+src/
+├── index.ts
+├── cli.ts              Binary entrypoint
+├── hermes.ts           createHermesAgent, buildHermesPrompt
+├── acp-client.ts       HermesAcpClient — ACP JSON-RPC over stdio
+├── session-cache.ts    Session ID cache (re-exports kit helpers + isResumeDisabled)
+├── session-detail.ts   Parse Hermes session JSON, store CAS detail nodes
+├── schemas.ts          Hermes detail CAS schemas
+└── types.ts            HermesSessionJson, HermesSessionMessage
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+Uses workflow config from `~/.uncaged/workflow/config.yaml` (via agent-kit). Hermes session files are stored under the workflow storage root (see `session-detail.ts`).
+
+Set `UWF_HERMES_NO_RESUME=1` to disable session resume (see `isResumeDisabled` in `session-cache.ts`).

+Agent framework — `createAgent` factory, context builder, frontmatter fast-path, and LLM extract pipeline.
+
+## Overview
+
+Layer 2 agent framework. Provides the standard entrypoint for all agent CLIs: parse `<thread-id> <role>` from argv, load thread/workflow context from CAS, invoke the agent's `run`/`continue` functions, validate output via frontmatter fast-path or LLM extract, and write a `StepNodePayload` to CAS.
+
+Also exports prompt builders, config/storage helpers, and session ID caching for multi-turn agents.
+
+**Dependencies:** `@uncaged/json-cas`, `@uncaged/json-cas-fs`, `@uncaged/workflow-protocol`, `@uncaged/workflow-util`, `dotenv`, `yaml`
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+bun add @uncaged/workflow-agent-kit
+```
+
+## API
+
+All exports come from `src/index.ts`.
+
+### Agent factory
+
+```typescript
+function createAgent(options: AgentOptions): () => Promise<void>
+
+type AgentOptions = {
+  name: string;
+  run: AgentRunFn;
+  continue: AgentContinueFn;
+};
+
+type AgentRunFn = (ctx: AgentContext) => Promise<AgentRunResult>;
+type AgentContinueFn = (
+  sessionId: string,
+  message: string,
+  store: AgentContext["store"],
+) => Promise<AgentRunResult>;
+
+type AgentRunResult = {
+  output: string;
+  detailHash: string;
+  sessionId: string;
+};
+```
+
+Agent CLIs call `createAgent(...)` and invoke the returned function as `main()`.
+
+### Context
+
+```typescript
+function buildContext(threadId: ThreadId, role: string): Promise<AgentContext>
+function buildContextWithMeta(
+  threadId: ThreadId,
+  role: string,
+): Promise<AgentContext & { meta: BuildContextMeta }>
+
+type AgentContext = ModeratorContext & {
+  threadId: ThreadId;
+  role: string;
+  store: Store;
+  workflow: WorkflowPayload;
+  outputFormatInstruction: string;
+  edgePrompt: string;
+  isFirstVisit: boolean;
+};
+
+type BuildContextMeta = {
+  storageRoot: string;
+  store: Store;
+  schemas: AgentStore["schemas"];
+  headHash: CasRef;
+  chain: ChainState;
+};
+```
+
+Requires `UWF_EDGE_PROMPT` in the environment (set by `uwf thread step`).
+
+### Prompt builders
+
+```typescript
+function buildRolePrompt(role: RoleDefinition): string
+function buildOutputFormatInstruction(schema: JSONSchema): string
+function buildContinuationPrompt(
+  ctx: AgentContext,
+  priorOutput: string,
+  instruction: string,
+): string
+```
+
+### Extract pipeline
+
+```typescript
+function resolveExtractModelAlias(config: WorkflowConfig): ModelAlias
+function resolveModel(config: WorkflowConfig, alias: ModelAlias): ResolvedLlmProvider
+function extract(
+  rawOutput: string,
+  outputSchema: CasRef,
+  config: WorkflowConfig,
+): Promise<ExtractResult>
+
+type ResolvedLlmProvider = { baseUrl: string; apiKey: string; model: string };
+type ExtractResult = { value: unknown; hash: CasRef };
+```
+
+### Frontmatter fast-path
+
+```typescript
+function tryFrontmatterFastPath(
+  rawOutput: string,
+  outputSchema: CasRef,
+  store: Store,
+): Promise<FrontmatterFastPathResult | null>
+
+type FrontmatterFastPathResult = { body: string; outputHash: CasRef };
+```
+
+### Session cache
+
+```typescript
+function getCachedSessionId(threadId: ThreadId, role: string): Promise<string | null>
+function setCachedSessionId(
+  threadId: ThreadId,
+  role: string,
+  sessionId: string,
+): Promise<void>
+```
+
+### Config and storage
+
+```typescript
+function getConfigPath(storageRoot: string): string
+function getEnvPath(storageRoot: string): string
+function resolveStorageRoot(): string
+function loadWorkflowConfig(storageRoot: string): Promise<WorkflowConfig>
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { createAgent, buildRolePrompt } from "@uncaged/workflow-agent-kit";
+import type { AgentContext, AgentRunResult } from "@uncaged/workflow-agent-kit";
+
+async function run(ctx: AgentContext): Promise<AgentRunResult> {
+  const prompt = buildRolePrompt(ctx.workflow.roles[ctx.role]!);
+  // ... spawn external process, capture output ...
+  return { output: markdown, detailHash: "...", sessionId: "..." };
+}
+
+async function continueSession(
+  sessionId: string,
+  message: string,
+): Promise<AgentRunResult> {
+  // ... continue multi-turn session ...
+  return { output: markdown, detailHash: "...", sessionId };
+}
+
+export const main = createAgent({ name: "my-agent", run, continue: continueSession });
+```

+# @uncaged/workflow-dashboard
+
+Web graph editor for visualizing and editing workflow YAML definitions.
+
+## Overview
+
+A private alpha web app (not part of the runtime engine stack). Provides a React + `@xyflow/react` canvas for editing workflow roles, conditions, and graph transitions. Uses `@uncaged/workflow-protocol` types for validation and YAML round-tripping.
+
+Planned integration: local `uwf connect` over WebSocket to sync YAML between CLI and the browser editor. The REST API and Elysia backend are currently stubs for development.
+
+**Dependencies:** `@uncaged/workflow-protocol`, `@xyflow/react`, React 19, react-router v7, Vite 8, Tailwind CSS v4, Elysia
+
+## Installation
+
+Monorepo-only ( `"private": true` ). Not published to npm.
+
+```bash
+cd packages/workflow-dashboard
+bun install --no-cache
+```
+
+## CLI Usage
+
+Start the Vite dev server (port 3000):
+
+```bash
+cd packages/workflow-dashboard
+bun run dev
+```
+
+Build for production:
+
+```bash
+bun run build
+```
+
+Open `http://localhost:3000` in a browser.

+## Configuration
+
+| Setting | Default | Notes |
+|---------|---------|-------|
+| Dev server port | `3000` | Set in `server.ts` |
+| Workflow storage (dev) | `tmp/workflow/` | YAML files during development |
+| Path alias | `@/` → `src/` | Configured in `vite.config.ts` |
+
+No library API — this package is an application, not importable as a module.
