imccyu 773ecf03f5 workflow: drop the determinism bans (unimplemented-resume pre-support)
The Date.now()/Math.random()/argless-new-Date() bans existed solely to
keep scripts resume-compatible for the deferred journaling/resume
feature. Pre-support for an unimplemented feature is speculative cost:
scripts may now read the clock freely; implementing resume reintroduces
the bans as a script-contract tightening. The RFC's shipped-state
description is updated in place, the tool DESCRIPTION drops the
constraint sentence (the pinned text-turn header follows), and the
engine README's trust-premise paragraph now leans on absent globals
alone.

workflow/ — dynamic-workflow capability family

The workflow seam: a model-written JavaScript orchestration script that fans out subagents at scale (phases, structured per-agent results, concurrency caps), modeled on Claude Code's dynamic workflows. A capability seam (see capability seams) in the bash shape: ONE engine implementation per context registers as ctx.workflows; the model-facing tool consumes it.

Package Role ctx key
workflow/ Abstract workflow seam: service base class + run vocabulary + workflow/* events ctx.workflows
workflow-vm/ In-process node:vm engine: parses the script, injects the hooks, drives ctx.subagents (provides ctx.workflows)
tool-workflow/ Model-facing workflow tool over ctx.workflows (registers on ctx.tools)

The interface lives at workflow/workflow/. The engine's agent() hook rides the subagent seam (any registered provider; the shipped examples use spawn), and agent({ schema }) rides the structured-output support the in-process backends implement. The seam split exists for engine hardening: node:vm is in-process and cannot kill a pathological synchronous spin — a worker-thread or isolated-vm engine swaps in behind the same interface if that ever matters.
