team-coordinate	Universal team coordination skill with dynamic role generation. Uses team-worker agent architecture with role-spec files. Only coordinator is built-in -- all worker roles are generated at runtime as role-specs and spawned via team-worker agent. Beat/cadence model for orchestration. Triggers on "Team Coordinate ".

Team Coordinate

Universal team coordination skill: analyze task -> generate role-specs -> dispatch -> execute -> deliver. Only the coordinator is built-in. All worker roles are dynamically generated as lightweight role-spec files and spawned via the team-worker agent.

 [team-worker agents, each loaded with a dynamic role-spec]
  (roles generated at runtime from task analysis)

  CLI Tools (callable by any worker):
    ccw cli --mode analysis  - analysis and exploration
    ccw cli --mode write     - code generation and modification

Role Router

This skill is coordinator-only. Workers do NOT invoke this skill -- they are spawned as team-worker agents directly.

Input Parsing

Parse $ARGUMENTS. No --role needed -- always routes to coordinator.

Role Registry

Only coordinator is statically registered. All other roles are dynamic, stored as role-specs in session.

Role	File	Type
coordinator	roles/coordinator/role.md	built-in orchestrator
(dynamic)	<session>/role-specs/<role-name>.md	runtime-generated role-spec

CLI Tool Usage

Workers can use CLI tools for analysis and code operations:

Tool	Purpose
ccw cli --mode analysis	Analysis, exploration, pattern discovery
ccw cli --mode write	Code generation, modification, refactoring

Dispatch

Always route to coordinator. Coordinator reads roles/coordinator/role.md and executes its phases.

Orchestration Mode

User just provides task description.

Invocation: Skill(skill="team-coordinate", args="task description")

Lifecycle:

User provides task description
  -> coordinator Phase 1: task analysis (detect capabilities, build dependency graph)
  -> coordinator Phase 2: generate role-specs + initialize session
  -> coordinator Phase 3: create task chain from dependency graph
  -> coordinator Phase 4: spawn first batch workers (background) -> STOP
  -> Worker executes -> SendMessage callback -> coordinator advances next step
  -> Loop until pipeline complete -> Phase 5 report + completion action

User Commands (wake paused coordinator):

Command	Action
check / status	Output execution status graph, no advancement
resume / continue	Check worker states, advance next step

Coordinator Spawn Template

v2 Worker Spawn (all roles)

When coordinator spawns workers, use team-worker agent with role-spec path:

Agent({
  subagent_type: "team-worker",
  description: "Spawn <role> worker",
  team_name: <team-name>,
  name: "<role>",
  run_in_background: true,
  prompt: `## Role Assignment
role: <role>
role_spec: <session-folder>/role-specs/<role>.md
session: <session-folder>
session_id: <session-id>
team_name: <team-name>
requirement: <task-description>
inner_loop: <true|false>

Read role_spec file to load Phase 2-4 domain instructions.
Execute built-in Phase 1 (task discovery) -> role-spec Phase 2-4 -> built-in Phase 5 (report).`
})

Inner Loop roles (role has 2+ serial same-prefix tasks): Set inner_loop: true. The team-worker agent handles the loop internally.

Single-task roles: Set inner_loop: false.

---

Completion Action

When pipeline completes (all tasks done), coordinator presents an interactive choice:

AskUserQuestion({
  questions: [{
    question: "Team pipeline complete. What would you like to do?",
    header: "Completion",
    multiSelect: false,
    options: [
      { label: "Archive & Clean (Recommended)", description: "Archive session, clean up team" },
      { label: "Keep Active", description: "Keep session for follow-up work" },
      { label: "Export Results", description: "Export deliverables to target directory, then clean" }
    ]
  }]
})

Action Handlers

Choice	Steps
Archive & Clean	Update session status="completed" -> TeamDelete -> output final summary with artifact paths
Keep Active	Update session status="paused" -> output: "Resume with: Skill(skill='team-coordinate', args='resume')"
Export Results	AskUserQuestion(target path) -> copy artifacts to target -> Archive & Clean

---

Cadence Control

Beat model: Event-driven, each beat = coordinator wake -> process -> spawn -> STOP.

Beat Cycle (single beat)
======================================================================
  Event                   Coordinator              Workers
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  callback/resume --> +- handleCallback -+
                      |  mark completed   |
                      |  check pipeline   |
                      +- handleSpawnNext -+
                      |  find ready tasks |
                      |  spawn workers ---+--> [team-worker A] Phase 1-5
                      |  (parallel OK)  --+--> [team-worker B] Phase 1-5
                      +- STOP (idle) -----+         |
                                                     |
  callback <-----------------------------------------+
  (next beat)              SendMessage + TaskUpdate(completed)
======================================================================

  Fast-Advance (skips coordinator for simple linear successors)
======================================================================
  [Worker A] Phase 5 complete
    +- 1 ready task? simple successor? --> spawn team-worker B directly
    +- complex case? --> SendMessage to coordinator
======================================================================

Pipelines are dynamic: Unlike static pipeline definitions, team-coordinate pipelines are generated per-task from the dependency graph.

Session Resume

Coordinator supports resume / continue for interrupted sessions:

1. Scan .workflow/.team/TC-*/team-session.json for active/paused sessions
2. Multiple matches -> AskUserQuestion for selection
3. Audit TaskList -> reconcile session state <-> task status
4. Reset in_progress -> pending (interrupted tasks)
5. Rebuild team and spawn needed workers only
6. Create missing tasks with correct blockedBy
7. Kick first executable task -> Phase 4 coordination loop

Error Handling

Scenario	Resolution
Unknown command	Error with available command list
Dynamic role-spec not found	Error, coordinator may need to regenerate
Command file not found	Fallback to inline execution
CLI tool fails	Worker proceeds with direct implementation, logs warning
Explore cache corrupt	Clear cache, re-explore
Fast-advance spawns wrong task	Coordinator reconciles on next callback
capability_gap reported	Coordinator generates new role-spec via handleAdapt
Completion action fails	Default to Keep Active, log warning
