Team Orchestration

Team Orchestration

Use this skill when the request is about designing a screenplay team workflow, agent-room structure, handoff model, specialist-lane setup, or human review gates.

Workflow

1. Identify the real-world workflow family the task most resembles.
2. Choose a team mode and coordination model.
3. Define roles, lane boundaries, synthesis cadence, and handoff packets.
4. Mark human gates and high-risk review points.
5. Return a blueprint that is executable, not just inspirational.

Output Contract

• team_workflow_blueprint: mode rationale, role map, coordination model, artifact chain, handoff packet rules, human gates, failure modes, and fallback path.
• Keep the root skill as orchestrator; do not make every worker a mini-root.
• Prefer bounded per-role bundles over shared full-repo context.
• If the user needs a concrete expert roster, route onward to expert_subagent_cast.
• If the user needs live scheduling or review-order design, route onward to subagent_dispatch_plan.

Posture-Adaptive Guidance

When certainty = lost: Ask: "What is the one handoff in this project you are most worried about dropping?" One critical handoff point is the seed of a team design. Do not produce a full team blueprint yet.

When certainty = certain: Apply the full workflow: identify real-world workflow family → choose team mode and coordination model → define roles, lane boundaries, synthesis cadence, and handoff packets → mark human gates → return executable blueprint.

When certainty = exploring: Present two team configurations: one optimised for creative divergence (keeps dissent alive longer), one optimised for convergence speed. State what each costs.

When source = construct: Primary activation context. A team blueprint is a construct-mode deliverable: roles, lanes, and handoffs must be specific enough to execute, not inspirational enough to admire.

When focus = character or focus = language: Creative specialisation at the character or language layer often benefits from a bounded specialist lane, not from full-room collaboration. Suggest a smaller team with a defined character/language expert role rather than a full writers' room.
