Building loops

A Loop is a workflow tagged origin_product: "loops" with one shape: a trigger, one "Create AI task" step, an optional notify step, and an exit. Desktop's Loops screens read this shape back. A workflow with anything else still runs, but Desktop shows it as "changed in the workflow editor" and makes it read-only.

Build it in this order: workflows-create as a draft, workflows-test-run step by step, workflows-schedule-create for schedule loops, then workflows-enable once the user signs off. For anything not covered here (patching a draft, publishing a live workflow, reading logs), use the building-workflows skill.

The graph

Replace only the values in angle brackets. Leave out the notify step and its edges when the user does not want a notification.
