ci: use test:ci to skip integration tests in CI

The HermesAcpClient integration tests require a live Hermes agent
process and always timeout (3 × 120s) in CI containers, causing
every CI run to fail for ~6 minutes before reporting failure.

Switch from `bun run test` to `bun run test:ci` which was already
defined in all testable packages — workflow-agent-hermes's test:ci
runs only unit tests (__tests__/*.test.ts), skipping integration/.

-# Test Spec: uwf setup model connectivity validation (#335)
-
-## Context
-
-File: `packages/cli-workflow/src/commands/setup.ts`
-Test file: `packages/cli-workflow/src/__tests__/setup-validate.test.ts`
-
-After `cmdSetup` writes config, it should send a test chat completion request to verify the configured model is reachable. If validation fails, warn the user (don't abort — config is already saved).
-
-## Implementation Notes
-
-- Add a `validateModel(baseUrl, apiKey, model)` function that sends a minimal chat completion request (`POST /chat/completions` with `messages: [{role:"user",content:"hi"}]`, `max_tokens: 1`)
-- Returns `Result<void, string>` — ok if 2xx response, error with reason string otherwise
-- Use `AbortSignal.timeout(15_000)` for the request
-- Both `cmdSetup` and `cmdSetupInteractive` should call it after saving config
-- `cmdSetup` returns validation result in its return object: `{ ...existing, validation: { ok: true } | { ok: false, error: string } }`
-- `cmdSetupInteractive` prints a warning to console if validation fails, success message if it passes
-- Use the project logger (`createLogger`) — no raw `console.log` except in interactive CLI output (per CLAUDE.md)
-
-## Test Cases (vitest)
-
-### 1. `validateModel` — success path
-- Mock `fetch` to return `{ status: 200, ok: true, json: () => ({}) }`
-- Call `validateModel(baseUrl, apiKey, model)`
-- Assert returns `{ ok: true, value: undefined }`
-- Assert fetch was called with correct URL (`${baseUrl}/chat/completions`), correct headers (`Authorization: Bearer ${apiKey}`), correct body (model, messages, max_tokens: 1)
-
-### 2. `validateModel` — HTTP error (401 unauthorized)
-- Mock `fetch` to return `{ status: 401, ok: false, statusText: "Unauthorized" }`
-- Call `validateModel(baseUrl, apiKey, model)`
-- Assert returns `{ ok: false, error: <string containing "401"> }`
-
-### 3. `validateModel` — HTTP error (404 model not found)
-- Mock `fetch` to return `{ status: 404, ok: false, statusText: "Not Found" }`
-- Assert returns `{ ok: false, error: <string containing "404"> }`
-
-### 4. `validateModel` — network timeout
-- Mock `fetch` to throw `DOMException` with name `AbortError`
-- Assert returns `{ ok: false, error: <string containing "timeout" or "unreachable"> }`
-
-### 5. `validateModel` — network error (DNS failure, connection refused)
-- Mock `fetch` to throw `TypeError("fetch failed")`
-- Assert returns `{ ok: false, error: <string mentioning connectivity> }`
-
-### 6. `cmdSetup` — includes validation result on success
-- Mock global `fetch` for `/chat/completions` to succeed
-- Call `cmdSetup({ provider, baseUrl, apiKey, model, storageRoot })`
-- Assert returned object has `validation: { ok: true, value: undefined }`
-- Assert config files are still written (existing behavior preserved)
-
-### 7. `cmdSetup` — includes validation result on failure (config still saved)
-- Mock global `fetch` for `/chat/completions` to return 401
-- Call `cmdSetup({ ... })`
-- Assert returned object has `validation: { ok: false, error: ... }`
-- Assert `config.yaml` and `.env` are still written (validation failure doesn't prevent saving)
-
-### 8. `cmdSetupInteractive` — prints success message on validation pass
-- Mock `fetch` for both `/models` and `/chat/completions` to succeed
-- Mock stdin to provide valid selections
-- Capture console output
-- Assert output contains a success message like "Model verified" or "✓"
-
-### 9. `cmdSetupInteractive` — prints warning on validation failure
-- Mock `fetch`: `/models` succeeds, `/chat/completions` returns 401
-- Mock stdin for valid selections
-- Capture console output
-- Assert output contains a warning about model not being reachable and suggests trying a different model
-
-### 10. `validateModel` — request body correctness
-- Mock `fetch` to capture the request body
-- Call `validateModel(baseUrl, apiKey, "test-model")`
-- Assert body is `{ model: "test-model", messages: [{role: "user", content: "hi"}], max_tokens: 1 }`
-
-## Export Requirements
-
-- `validateModel` must be exported (for direct unit testing)
-- Signature: `async function validateModel(baseUrl: string, apiKey: string, model: string): Promise<Result<void, string>>`
-- `Result` type: `{ ok: true; value: T } | { ok: false; error: E }` (project convention)
-
-## Files to Create/Modify
-
-- **New**: `packages/cli-workflow/src/__tests__/setup-validate.test.ts` — all test cases above
-- **Modify**: `packages/cli-workflow/src/commands/setup.ts` — add `validateModel`, integrate into `cmdSetup` and `cmdSetupInteractive`

-      1. Locate the code repository:
-         - Check if the current working directory is the repo (look for package.json, .git, etc.)
-         - If the task mentions a repo URL, clone it first.
-         - If this is a new project, create the repo and note the path.
-      2. Explore the codebase — read the relevant source files mentioned in the issue. Understand the current architecture, types, and conventions (check CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, .cursor/rules/).
-      3. Identify which files need changes and what the changes should be, with specific code references.
-      4. Output the plan with:
-         - `repoPath`: absolute path to the repository root
-         - `plan`: detailed implementation plan with file paths and code references
-         - `steps`: concrete action items for the developer
-    output: |
-      Provide repoPath, plan summary, and steps in the frontmatter.
-      The plan MUST reference actual file paths and code structures you found by reading the source.
-      Do NOT guess — if you haven't read a file, read it before referencing it.
+      On first run (no previous steps):
+      1. Read the issue and all comments from Gitea using `tea issues <number> -r <owner/repo>`
+      2. Look for project conventions files (CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, .cursor/rules/) in the repo
+      3. Assess whether the issue has enough information to produce a test spec
+      4. If insufficient info: comment on the issue via `echo "..." | tea comment <number> -r <owner/repo>` (skip if you already commented), then output $status=insufficient_info
+      5. If sufficient: produce a detailed TDD test spec in markdown covering all scenarios
+
+      On subsequent runs (bounced back by tester with fix_spec):
+      1. Read the tester's output from the previous step to understand what's wrong with the spec
+      2. Revise the test spec accordingly
+
+      After producing the test spec:
+      1. Store it via `uwf cas put-text "<markdown content>"` and capture the returned hash
+      2. Put the hash in frontmatter.plan (required when $status=ready)

-      3. Create a feature branch from the default branch.
-      4. Implement the plan — write code, tests, and ensure existing tests pass.
-      5. Run the project's lint/check command (e.g. `bun run check`, `npm run lint`) and fix ALL errors before proceeding. Build and lint must pass cleanly.
-      6. Commit your changes with a descriptive message referencing the issue.
-    output: "List all files changed and provide a summary of the implementation."
+      IMPORTANT: Always work in a git worktree, NEVER modify the main working directory directly.

+         - `cd .worktrees/fix/<issue-number>-<short-slug> && bun install`

+         - `git fetch origin && git rebase origin/main`
+      5. ALL subsequent work must happen inside the worktree directory.
+

 Requires the `hermes` CLI on `PATH`.
 
+Hermes must write session JSON snapshots so `uwf-hermes` can load structured tool calls from disk. Add this to `~/.hermes/config.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+sessions:
+  write_json_snapshots: true
+```
+
+Session files are stored at `~/.hermes/sessions/session_{sessionId}.json`.

 ## CLI Usage

+
+## Key Concepts
+
+### CAS (Content-Addressed Storage)
+Every artifact in the workflow engine is stored as a CAS node — an immutable, content-addressed record identified by its XXH64 hash (13-char Crockford Base32). CAS provides deduplication, integrity verification, and an append-only audit trail.
+
+Stored artifacts include:
+- **Workflow definitions** — the YAML-parsed payload
+- **Step nodes** — each moderator→agent→extract cycle
+- **Detail nodes** — per-step metadata and turn history
+- **Turn records** — individual agent interactions within a step
+
+### Thread
+A Thread is a single execution of a Workflow, identified by a ULID (26-char Crockford Base32: 10 timestamp + 16 random). Thread state is an immutable CAS chain — each step points to its predecessor via a \`prev\` hash, forming a linked list.
+
+Active threads are indexed in \`threads.yaml\`; completed threads move to \`history.jsonl\`.
+
+A thread progresses by running \`uwf thread exec\`, which performs one moderator→agent→extract cycle per step.
+
+### Workflow
+A Workflow is a YAML definition (\`WorkflowPayload\`) stored as a CAS node. It defines:
+- **Roles** — named actors with system prompts and output schemas
+- **Graph** — status-based routing edges between roles
+- **Conditions** — edge predicates evaluated by the moderator
+
+Workflow names follow verb-first kebab-case: \`solve-issue\`, \`review-code\`.
+
+### Step
+A Step is one moderator→agent→extract cycle, stored as a CAS node (\`StepNodePayload\`). Each step contains:
+- **output** — the agent's extracted frontmatter output
+- **detail** — a CAS reference to turn-level records
+- **prev** — CAS hash of the previous step (forming the chain)
+- **role** — which role produced this step
+
+### Turn
+A Turn is an agent-internal interaction within a single Step. Turns are stored per-turn in the detail node, capturing the raw agent I/O before extraction.
+
+## Data Flow
+
+\`\`\`
+uwf thread exec <thread-id>
+  → Moderator evaluates graph edges based on current status
+  → Selects next role (or $END)
+  → Agent CLI is spawned with context
+  → Agent produces frontmatter markdown
+  → Extract pipeline parses output into structured data
+  → New CAS step node is appended to the thread chain
+\`\`\`
+
+## Storage Layout
+
+All data lives under \`~/.uncaged/workflow/\`:
+- \`cas/\` — content-addressed store (XXH64-keyed)
+- \`threads.yaml\` — active thread index
+- \`history.jsonl\` — completed thread archive
+- \`registry.yaml\` — workflow name → CAS hash mapping

+export function generateModeratorReference(): string {

+
+## Overview
+
+The moderator is the workflow engine's routing component. It evaluates the directed graph defined in the workflow YAML to determine the next role (or \`$END\`) after each step — with zero LLM cost.
+
+## Status-Based Routing
+
+The moderator uses **status-based routing**: it inspects the previous step's extracted output (specifically the \`$status\` field) and looks up the corresponding edge in the graph.
+
+### Graph Structure
+
+The graph is a nested map: \`Record<Role | "$START", Record<Status, Target>>\`. Each role maps its possible \`$status\` values to a target with a \`role\` and \`prompt\`:
+
+\`\`\`yaml
+graph:
+  $START:
+    _: { role: planner, prompt: "Analyze the issue." }
+  planner:
+    ready: { role: developer, prompt: "Implement the plan (CAS hash: {{{plan}}})." }
+    insufficient_info: { role: $END, prompt: "Not enough info." }
+  developer:
+    done: { role: reviewer, prompt: "Review branch {{{branch}}} at {{{worktree}}}." }
+    failed: { role: $END, prompt: "Developer failed: {{{reason}}}." }
+  reviewer:
+    approved: { role: tester, prompt: "Run tests on {{{branch}}} at {{{worktree}}}." }
+    rejected: { role: developer, prompt: "Fix issues: {{{comments}}}." }
+\`\`\`
+
+### Routing Algorithm
+
+1. Look up \`graph[lastRole]\` to get the status map for the current role
+2. Look up \`statusMap[lastOutput.$status]\` to get the target
+3. If target role is \`$END\`, mark thread as completed
+4. Otherwise, render the edge prompt (Mustache templates with \`{{{field}}}\` from output) and spawn the next agent
+
+### Edge Prompts and Mustache Templates
+
+Edge prompts use triple-brace Mustache syntax (\`{{{field}}}\`) to interpolate values from the previous step's output into the next agent's task prompt. This passes structured data (branch names, file paths, CAS hashes) between roles without manual wiring.
+
+## Special Nodes
+
+- \`$START\` — entry point; uses status key \`_\` (unconditional) since there is no previous output
+- \`$END\` — terminal node; thread completes when reached and is moved to history
+
+## Integration with Steps
+
+Each \`uwf thread exec\` cycle:
+1. Moderator reads the thread's head step output
+2. Looks up \`graph[lastRole][output.$status]\` to pick the next role
+3. If next is \`$END\`, marks thread as completed
+4. Otherwise, renders the edge prompt and spawns the agent for the selected role
+5. Extract pipeline parses agent output → new step node → append to CAS chain

+# E2E walkthrough for uncaged/workflow.
+# Runs inside Docker with isolated UNCAGED_WORKFLOW_STORAGE_ROOT.
+# Exercises: setup → workflow add → thread start/exec → cancel/fork → read/inspect.
+#
+# Usage:
+#   sudo -E scripts/e2e-walkthrough.sh [--agent <agent>] [--provider <provider>] [--model <model>] [--api-key <key>]
+#
+# Requires: Docker running, $HOME mount approach (see scripts/check-dev-env.sh).
+# Produces: JSON report on stdout, logs in $E2E_DIR.
+#
+# IMPORTANT: Must run with `sudo -E` to preserve $HOME (Docker needs root).
+#
+# Known Issues (WIP):
+#   1. `echo '$OUT' | jq` breaks when $OUT contains single quotes (e.g. workflow show
+#      output with YAML). Fix: use heredoc or pipe variable directly.
+#   2. Config may still have old `apiKeyEnv` field — thread exec will fail with
+#      "no API key". Fix: re-run `uwf setup` or manually set `apiKey` in config.
+#   3. Bootstrap installs jq via apt-get which adds ~30s startup time.
+#      Consider baking a custom image or using node's JSON.parse instead.
+#   4. `bun install` in container may modify host's lockfile/node_modules.
+#      Consider `--frozen-lockfile` or read-only mount for non-essential paths.
