You appear to be making the mistake of assuming that the only valid definition for the term "workflow" is the definition used by software such as https://airflow.apache.org/

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/workflow thinks the word dates back to 1921.

There no reason Anthropic can't take that word and present their own alternative definition for it in the context of LLM tool usage, which is what they've done here.

Right, I am saying I don't think their definition is an accurate one with the modern use of the term. It's an artificially limited definition to fit a narrative. An agent is nothing more than a very limited workflow.
