Feature/Update Loop Agentflow (FlowiseAI#4957)

HenryHengZJ · erhhung · commit 10c6a910a8bf · 2025-10-05T14:16:28.000-07:00
* Feature: Update Loop Agentflow to include fallback message and version increment to 1.1

- Added a new input parameter 'fallbackMessage' to the Loop Agentflow for displaying a message when the loop count is exceeded.
- Incremented the version of Loop Agentflow from 1.0 to 1.1.
- Updated the processing logic to handle the fallback message appropriately when the maximum loop count is reached.

* - Introduced a new input parameter 'loopUpdateState' to allow updating the runtime state during workflow execution.
- Added a method to list runtime state keys for dynamic state management.
- Implemented logic to retrieve and utilize the current loop count in variable resolution.
- Updated the Loop Agentflow output to reflect the new state and final output content.
