Implement Agent Teams
Implement team setup and coordination patterns for multi-agent workflows, including display modes and operational constraints.
Workflow
- •Validate complexity: Confirm team is needed (score 9-10). Can multiple specialized sub-agents work independently?
- •Define team objective: Clear goal requiring coordinated multi-agent execution
- •Identify members: Specialized agents with non-overlapping responsibilities
- •Set boundaries: Clear ownership and handoff contracts between agents
- •Configure metadata: Team metadata and task routing conventions
- •Plan coordination: Sequential vs parallel execution patterns
- •Document rules: Coordination rules and display mode choices
- •Evaluation strategy: How to test team-based workflows (20-50 scenarios)
- •Run checks: Environment and config validation
- •Verify fallbacks: Limitations and fallback behavior
