TypeScript DSL Implementation Plan

For agentic workers: REQUIRED: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (if subagents available) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan. Steps use checkbox (- [ ]) syntax for tracking.

Goal: Create @nodetool/dsl — a type-safe TypeScript DSL for defining NodeTool workflows programmatically, with code-generated factory functions for all 810+ nodes.

Architecture: Factory functions (one per node) delegate to an internal createNode() that registers nodes in a global registry. workflow() BFS-traces from terminal nodes through OutputHandle refs to discover all nodes and edges, producing a serializable Workflow object. Code generation reads node metadata from @nodetool/base-nodes and emits typed factory functions grouped by namespace.

Tech Stack: TypeScript 5.x, vitest, @nodetool/node-sdk (node metadata), @nodetool/protocol (media refs), @nodetool/kernel (WorkflowRunner, RunResult)
