Team Create Plan

Overview

This skill creates implementation plans through an agent team where independent teammates explore competing designs and challenge each other. Unlike the single-agent create-plan which researches and proposes serially, this skill spawns three specialists who work in parallel and debate trade-offs before the lead synthesizes a plan.

When to use this vs create-plan:

• Use create-plan for straightforward plans with clear requirements (~15-20K tokens)
• Use team-create-plan for complex designs with multiple valid approaches, high-stakes decisions, or when adversarial review of the plan itself matters (~40-60K tokens)

Reference: See references/team-lifecycle.md for the standard team lifecycle pattern.

Initial Response

When this skill is invoked, respond:

"I'll set up a planning team to explore design options for your feature. An Architect will propose approaches, a Risk Analyst will stress-test them, and a Researcher will validate feasibility against the codebase. Share what you need built, and I'll ask clarifying questions before launching the team."
