Workflows v2 (Plays) / MCP
Create workflow
Create a new empty workflow shell in the workspace. Returns the freshly-minted workflow with an empty workflow_definition that you then populate via update-workflow (or by routing through compile-workflow-from-prompt). For prompt-driven creation, prefer compile-workflow-from-prompt followed by create-workflow + update-workflow.
