P1 review finding: extractMeta timed only the literal's vm evaluation;
materializing the RESULT then read properties ordinarily on the HOST
stack, so a meta literal smuggling a getter (get name() { while(true){} })
could wedge the host outside any timeout — defeating the exact spin
isolation the worker thread exists for.
Rather than harden the evaluator (descriptor walks, AST validation),
delete the mechanism: the workflow's identity now reaches the seam as a
plain JSON field (WorkflowStartRequest.meta), carried by the tool as a
schema-validated `meta` object parameter the model fills directly. The
engine only shape-validates data (validateMeta, every violation named)
and pre-parses the body; the scanner, the vm evaluation, and the
host-side materialization are gone, and with them the hole. A body
still opening with a Claude Code-style `export const meta` statement
gets a pointed SCRIPT_PARSE message (the likeliest authoring slip; a
CC script's body stays drop-in, only its meta header moves into the
parameter). syncTimeoutMs now governs exactly one thing: the initial
synchronous slice inside the worker.
The RFC's decision section is rewritten in place (implemented-RFC
rule); the embedded-meta format moves to alternatives-considered with
the hole as the reason. Tool description, presentation (title now reads
meta.name directly — the textual sniff is gone), seam vocabulary docs,
and catalogs follow.
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-workerthread/ |
node:worker_threads engine: one worker per run; the script's vm context lives inside the worker, agent() bridges to ctx.subagents over the message port |
(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 worker thread isolates the SCRIPT — the host never blocks on it, and a cancelled run's post-grace termination is real — but it is NOT a security boundary; an isolated-vm/separate-process engine (actual sandboxing) swaps in behind the same interface if that ever matters.
