+<!-- AUTOLOOP:ISSUE-PROGRAM -->
+<!-- This issue defines an Autoloop program. The format is identical to program.md files. -->
+<!-- Autoloop will discover this issue by its label and run iterations automatically. -->
+<!-- After each run, a status comment will be posted/updated with links and results. -->

+# Program Name
+
+## Goal
+
+<!-- Describe what you want to optimize. Be specific about what 'better' means. -->
+<!-- Choose one of the following program types: -->
+<!-- • Goal-oriented: Has a finish line. Set target-metric above and describe the target here. -->
+<!--   Example: "Increase test coverage to at least 95%." -->
+<!-- • Open-ended: Runs forever, always seeking improvement. Leave target-metric commented out. -->
+<!--   Example: "Continuously improve algorithm performance." -->
+
+REPLACE THIS with your optimization goal.
+
+## Target
+
+<!-- List files Autoloop may modify. Everything else is off-limits. -->
+
+Only modify these files:
+- `REPLACE_WITH_FILE` -- (describe what this file does)
+
+Do NOT modify:
+- (list files that must not be touched)
+
+## Evaluation
+
+<!-- Provide a command and the metric to extract. -->
+
+```bash
+REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_EVALUATION_COMMAND
+```
+
+The metric is `REPLACE_WITH_METRIC_NAME`. **Lower/Higher is better.** (pick one)

+**Use cases**:

 - Workflows must be compiled to `.lock.yml` files before running in GitHub Actions
 - **Bash tools are enabled by default** - Don't restrict bash commands unnecessarily since workflows are sandboxed by the AWF
 - Follow security best practices: minimal permissions, explicit network access, no template injection
+- **Network configuration**: Use ecosystem identifiers (`node`, `python`, `go`, etc.) or explicit FQDNs in `network.allowed`. Bare shorthands like `npm` or `pypi` are **not** valid. See https://github.com/github/gh-aw/blob/main/.github/aw/network.md for the full list of valid ecosystem identifiers and domain patterns.
 - **Single-file output**: When creating a workflow, produce exactly **one** workflow `.md` file. Do not create separate documentation files (architecture docs, runbooks, usage guides, etc.). If documentation is needed, add a brief `## Usage` section inside the workflow file itself.
+- **Triggering runs**: Always use `gh aw run <workflow-name>` to trigger a workflow on demand — not `gh workflow run <file>.lock.yml`. `gh aw run` handles workflow resolution by short name, input parsing and validation, and correct run-tracking for agentic workflows. Use `--ref <branch>` to run on a specific branch.
+- **CLI commands reference**: For a complete guide on all `gh aw` commands and their MCP tool equivalents (for restricted environments), see https://github.com/github/gh-aw/blob/main/.github/aw/cli-commands.md
