Team Pilot

Bootstrap and run TeamPilot end-to-end.

Zero-to-run setup (clean environment)

1. Ensure prerequisites:
   • git --version
   • node --version (recommend Node 20+)
   • npm --version
2. Clone repository:
   • git clone <TEAM_PILOT_REPO_URL> team-pilot
   • cd team-pilot
3. Install dependencies:
   • npm install
4. Start service:
   • npm run up
5. Open web UI:
   • http://localhost:3333

If EADDRINUSE appears, stop the process occupying port 3333 or start with another port:

• PORT=3334 npm run up
• then open http://localhost:3334

First mission (recommended flow)

1. In Mission Control, select a template.
2. Set execution mode:
   • auto for smoke tests
   • manual for deterministic demos and controlled outputs
3. Fill mission goal and launch.
4. Confirm graph starts changing (agent lane → task lane → result lane).

Manual mode operation standard

For each task, update in two steps:

1. task_started (status=running, progress around 20-60)
2. task_done (status=done, progress=100, complete output)

Endpoint:

• POST /api/tasks/:taskId/update

Suggested payload fields:

• status, progress, output, score, eventType, assignee

Replay workflow

1. Switch to Replay mode.
2. Load a run with frames > 1.
3. Scrub slider to inspect each frame.
4. Open node detail to verify input/output at each step.

Minimal API checklist

• POST /api/missions (create mission)
• GET /api/state (live state)
• POST /api/tasks/:taskId/update (manual updates)
• GET /api/runs (list traces)
• GET /api/runs/:missionId (load replay trace)
• POST /api/missions/:missionId/mode (auto/manual switch)

Troubleshooting

• UI opens but no updates:
  • verify server log has no crash
  • verify WebSocket /ws is connected
• Replay seems flat:
  • ensure selected run has frames > 1
  • ensure task updates were posted to /api/tasks/:taskId/update
• Mission stuck queued:
  • check dependency chain and assignee spelling
  • in manual mode, ensure leader is sending task updates

Output quality bar (content pipelines)

• PLAN: goal, structure, acceptance criteria
• RESEARCH: sources, extracted facts, citations
• VERIFY: confidence, risks, uncertainty
• BUILD: complete final draft
• DELIVER: publish-ready summary + readiness note
