A Squad coordinator template held in gh-aw's .squad folder and loaded when a repository has no .squad/team.md yet.
What the skill teaches
A Squad coordinator template held in gh-aw's .squad folder and loaded when a repository has no .squad/team.md yet. In the first phase the coordinator learns the user's name from git config, asks what is being built, casts four or five project agents with names from a chosen universe plus the built-in Scribe, Ralph, Rai and Fact Checker members, and asks the user to confirm the roster without creating files. In the second phase it writes the .squad scaffolding, casting state and merge-driver settings in .gitattributes. It was split out of squad.agent.md.
Capabilities
- Propose a Squad team for a new repository
- Confirm the roster with the user before writing files
- Create the .squad scaffolding and casting state
Install
The project doesn't document install steps that we could confirm. See the project's own instructions
