+
+| Concept | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| **Workflow** | A single-file ESM bundle (\`.esm.js\`) that exports \`run\` and \`descriptor\`. Identified by name and XXH64 hash. |
+| **Bundle** | The physical \`.esm.js\` file stored in the bundles directory. Immutable once written. |
+| **Thread** | A single execution of a workflow, identified by a ULID. Persists state as JSONL files. |
+| **CAS** | Content-Addressable Storage. Per-thread key-value store keyed by content hash. |
+| **Registry** | \`workflow.yaml\` — maps workflow names to their current and historical bundle hashes. |

+
+### Top-level shortcuts
+
+| Command | Equivalent | Description |
+|---------|------------|-------------|
+| \`run\` | \`thread run\` | Shortcut to start a thread |
+| \`live\` | \`thread live\` | Shortcut to attach to a thread |
+
+## Typical Workflow
+
+1. \`uncaged-workflow workflow add my-wf ./my-wf.esm.js\` — register a workflow
+2. \`uncaged-workflow run my-wf --prompt "do the thing"\` — start a thread
+3. \`uncaged-workflow live --latest\` — attach and watch output
+4. \`uncaged-workflow thread show <thread-id>\` — inspect completed thread

+## Exit Codes

+| 1 | Error |

+## Environment Variables

+- Small (a new feature touching 2-3 files): 1-2 phases

+- Large (new subsystem, architectural change): 3-5 phases
 
-**Do NOT store phase details in any other way** (no temp files, no invented paths). The CLI command is the only supported storage mechanism.
+Fewer phases is always better. Each phase must justify its existence — if two phases would be tested together anyway, merge them.
