Compositions

Teams + Task Ledger

Use stable task IDs, ownership, status, dependencies, and acceptance criteria. Product-native lists are useful coordination aids; external workflow state is stronger when work must survive sessions or products.

Teams + Worktrees

Give writing workers isolated branches and a named integrator. A worktree reduces file collisions but does not resolve semantic conflicts.

Teams + Role Skills

Define the portable role contract once and attach specialized skills for review, testing, research, or migration. Keep product-specific AgentA worker you delegate to: brief it, and it takes steps on its own. A chatbot answers; an agent acts.An LLM that runs tools in a loop toward a goal — it acts, checks the result, decides the next step, and repeats until done.Full definition definitions thin.

Teams + Hooks

Record task start, completion, failure, and scope checks where the product exposes those events. Verify event coverage for child and peer actions.

Teams + Memory

Use shared, reviewed state for decisions every worker needs. Keep private role memory for calibration only; otherwise workers develop incompatible realities.

Teams + External Orchestrator

When retries, schedules, approvals, or auditability matter, let deterministic workflow state own the run. Agents propose and execute bounded steps; the orchestrator controls transition and recovery.
