Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Update create/update-agentic-workflow prompts to use
 runtime-import syntax

Replace @./agentics/<workflow-id>.md with {{#runtime-import agentics/<workflow-id>.md}}
in both create and update workflow prompt templates. The runtime-import macro syntax
is the preferred method for including external files at runtime.
