Electrobun Teams

Electrobun Feature Team

Two-agent sequential pipeline for building complete Electrobun features — renderer first, bun-side second.

Enabling Teams

export CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1
claude  # start Claude Code with teams enabled

Teams require this env var. Without it, the team tools (TeamCreate, TaskCreate, SendMessage) are not available.

Orchestrator: How to Run the Team

1. Create team:
   TeamCreate { team_name: "electrobun-feature-team", description: "Building <feature>" }

2. Create tasks:
   TaskCreate { subject: "T1: UI agent — design views and produce RPC contract" }
   TaskCreate { subject: "T2: Backend agent — implement bun-side wiring from RPC contract" }
   TaskUpdate { taskId: "T2", addBlockedBy: ["T1"] }  // T2 blocked until T1 done

3. Spawn UI agent:
   Agent {
     name: "ui-agent",
     team_name: "electrobun-feature-team",
     subagent_type: "general-purpose",
     prompt: "You are the electrobun-ui-agent. [full feature spec] ..."
   }
   TaskUpdate { taskId: "T1", status: "in_progress", owner: "ui-agent" }

4. Wait for UI agent to complete T1 and produce handoff document.
   UI agent sends message: SendMessage to orchestrator with contract.

5. Receive contract. Pass to backend agent:
   Agent {
     name: "backend-agent",
     team_name: "electrobun-feature-team",
     subagent_type: "general-purpose",
     prompt: "You are the electrobun-backend-agent. Contract: [paste handoff] ..."
   }
   TaskUpdate { taskId: "T2", status: "in_progress", owner: "backend-agent" }

6. Wait for backend agent to complete T2.

7. Shutdown team:
   SendMessage { target: "ui-agent", type: "shutdown_request" }
   SendMessage { target: "backend-agent", type: "shutdown_request" }

8. Report completion to user.

Team Roles

electrobun-ui-agent

Input: Feature description from orchestrator Output: RPC contract handoff document + all renderer files

Produces:

• src/<viewname>/index.html — markup with #id-kebab-case on every control
• src/<viewname>/index.css — layout and styles
• src/<viewname>/index.ts — Electroview wiring using electrobun/view
• src/shared/types.ts — the MyRPCType typed RPC schema

electrobun-backend-agent

Input: RPC contract handoff from UI agent Output: Complete bun-side implementation + config update

Produces:

• src/bun/index.ts — BrowserWindow creation + BrowserView.defineRPC()
• Updated electrobun.config.ts — views + copy entries

The RPC Contract Handoff Format

# RPC Contract Handoff — <FeatureName>

## Views created
| View name | Source dir | Electrobun.config entry |
|---|---|---|
| mainview | src/mainview/ | mainview: { entrypoint: "src/mainview/index.ts" } |

## RPC type location
src/shared/types.ts — exports MyRPCType

## Bun-side requests (renderer calls → bun responds)
| RPC name | Params | Return | Trigger |
|---|---|---|---|
| doTheThing | { param: string } | string | #btn-primary-action click |

## Bun-side messages (renderer sends → bun, no response)
| RPC name | Payload | Trigger |
|---|---|---|
| closeWindow | {} | #btn-done click |

## Webview-side requests (bun calls → renderer responds)
| RPC name | Params | Return |
|---|---|---|
| getViewState | {} | { value: string } |

## Webview-side messages (bun sends → renderer)
| RPC name | Payload | UI updated |
|---|---|---|
| updateStatus | { status: string } | #status-display |

## electrobun.config.ts copy entries
copy: {
  "src/mainview/index.html": "views/mainview/index.html",
}

## Platform notes
- Requires CEF: no
- titleBarStyle: default
- Entitlements: none

Sequential Flow: Why UI First?

1. UI defines the contract — the renderer knows what it needs from bun (requests) and what it will push to bun (messages). This is the natural source of truth for the RPC schema.

2. Backend implements the contract — once the schema is known, the bun side is purely mechanical: implement each handler, return the right types.

3. No parallel work — both agents write to different files (renderer vs bun), but the backend agent needs the schema to type its handlers. Running in parallel would require speculative typing.

Using /electrobun-feature Without Full Teams Mode

If CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1 is not set, the orchestrator runs the agents sequentially as subagents (one at a time) instead of as teammates. This is slower but produces the same output.

The /electrobun-feature command handles both modes.

Key Rules for Teammates

• UI agent must not touch src/bun/ — backend agent owns that directory
• Backend agent must not touch src/<viewname>/ — UI agent owns those directories
• Both agents read src/shared/types.ts — UI agent creates it, backend agent imports it
• Orchestrator passes the full handoff document — do not rely on teammates reading each other's files
