-# Agent Teams Workflow - Claude Code Integration
-
-**Status:** EXPERIMENTAL - Enable via `CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1`
-
-> Orchestrate multiple Claude Code instances as a coordinated team for parallel development workflows
-
----
-
-## Overview
-
-**Agent Teams** are a Claude Code feature that coordinates multiple independent Claude instances working together on complex tasks. Unlike subagents (which run within a single context and only report back), Agent Teams members can communicate directly with each other, share findings, challenge each other's approaches, and coordinate through a shared task list.
-
-### Core Architecture
-
-| Component | Role |
-|-----------|------|
-| **Team Lead** | Main Claude session that creates the team, spawns teammates, coordinates work |
-| **Teammates** | Independent Claude Code instances, each with own context window |
-| **Shared Task List** | Coordinated work items with dependencies and state (pending/in-progress/completed) |
-| **Mailbox** | Direct messaging system between agents |
-
-**Storage:**
-- Team config: `~/.claude/teams/{team-name}/config.json`
-- Task list: `~/.claude/tasks/{team-name}/`
-
----
-
-## Agent Teams vs Subagents
-
-| Aspect | Subagents | Agent Teams |
-|--------|-----------|-------------|
-| **Context** | Own context, results return to caller | Fully independent contexts |
-| **Communication** | Report back to main agent only | Direct inter-teammate messaging + broadcast |
-| **Coordination** | Main agent manages all work | Shared task list with self-claiming |
-| **Best for** | Focused research, verification, isolated tasks | Complex work requiring discussion & collaboration |
-| **Token cost** | Lower (results summarized) | Higher (each teammate = separate Claude instance) |
-| **Use in MORPH** | Quick analysis, validation, isolated research | Parallel feature implementation, multi-module refactoring |

-## When to Use Agent Teams in MORPH-SPEC
-
-### ✅ **Strong Use Cases**
-
-1. **Parallel Feature Implementation (FASE 5)**
-   - Multiple independent features in the same release
-   - Each teammate owns 1-2 modules (e.g., Auth, Payments, Reporting)
-   - No file conflicts (each module has distinct files)
-
-2. **Architecture Review & Debugging**
-   - Multiple teammates investigate competing hypotheses
-   - Each applies different lens (security, performance, maintainability)
-   - Teams debate and converge on best solution
-
-3. **Cross-Stack Coordination**
-   - Frontend teammate (Blazor/Next.js)
-   - Backend teammate (API + EF Core)
-   - Infrastructure teammate (Bicep + Azure)
-   - Testing teammate (unit + integration)
-
-4. **Research & Standards Validation (FASE 0-2)**
-   - Investigate multiple integration options (Clerk vs Azure AD vs custom)
-   - Compare UI libraries (Fluent UI vs MudBlazor vs Radzen)
-   - Validate architecture patterns (CQRS vs simple Repository)
-
-### ❌ **Not Recommended**
-
-- Single-file edits or small bug fixes
-- Sequential tasks with many dependencies
-- Same-file modifications by multiple teammates (causes conflicts)
-- Routine tasks where coordination overhead > benefit
-
----
-
-## Setup & Configuration
-
-### 1. Enable Agent Teams
-
-Add to `.claude/settings.local.json` (or env variable):
-
-```json
-{
-  "env": {
-    "CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS": "1"
-  },
-  "teammateMode": "auto"  // or "in-process" / "tmux"
-}
-```
-
-**Display Modes:**
-- `"auto"`: Split panes if in tmux, otherwise in-process
-- `"in-process"`: All teammates in main terminal (Shift+Up/Down to switch)
-- `"tmux"`: Each teammate in separate pane (requires tmux or iTerm2)
-
-### 2. Start a Team
-
-**Natural Language Request:**
-```
-Create an agent team to implement the scheduled-reports feature.
-Spawn 3 teammates:
-- Backend engineer: EF Core models + Hangfire jobs (uses ef-modeler, hangfire-orchestrator skills)
-- Frontend engineer: Blazor dashboard + report viewer (uses blazor-builder, ui-ux-designer skills)
-- Testing specialist: Unit + integration tests (uses testing-specialist skill)
-
-Require plan approval for each teammate before implementation.
-```
-
-**What Claude Does:**
-1. Creates team config in `~/.claude/teams/scheduled-reports/`
-2. Spawns 3 independent Claude instances
-3. Each teammate loads project context (CLAUDE.md, MCP servers, skills)
-4. Lead assigns initial tasks from shared task list
-5. Teammates work in plan mode until lead approves
-6. After approval, teammates implement independently
-
-### 3. Control the Team
-
-**Delegate Mode** (Lead focuses on coordination only):
-```
-Press Shift+Tab to cycle into delegate mode
-```
-- Lead can't use code tools (Edit/Write/Bash)
-- Only coordination tools: spawn, message, task management
-
-**Direct Teammate Communication:**
-- In-process mode: Shift+Up/Down to select, type to message
-- Split-pane mode: Click teammate pane to interact directly
-
-**Task Management:**
-```
-# Lead assigns task
-Assign task T003 (implement report scheduler) to the backend engineer
-
-# Teammate self-claims next available task
-After completing T001, backend engineer claims T004 (add report repository)
-```
-
-**Shutdown:**
-```
-Ask the backend teammate to shut down gracefully
-```

-## MORPH-SPEC Integration Patterns
-
-### Pattern 1: Parallel Feature Implementation (FASE 5)
-
-**Scenario:** Multi-module feature with independent components
-
-```bash
-# 1. Complete FASES 0-4 normally (proposal → design → tasks)
-morph-spec state set scheduled-reports phase implement
-
-# 2. Claude creates agent team based on tasks.json structure
-# Example tasks.json with module grouping:
-{
-  "tasks": [
-    { "id": "T001", "module": "backend", "title": "Create ReportDefinition entity" },
-    { "id": "T002", "module": "backend", "title": "Implement Hangfire scheduler" },
-    { "id": "T003", "module": "frontend", "title": "Create report dashboard UI" },
-    { "id": "T004", "module": "frontend", "title": "Add report preview component" },
-    { "id": "T005", "module": "infra", "title": "Provision Blob Storage for reports" },
-    { "id": "T006", "module": "tests", "title": "Unit tests for scheduler", "dependsOn": ["T002"] }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-**Team Structure:**
-- **Lead:** Standards Architect (coordinates, validates contracts, syncs decisions.md)
-- **Backend Teammate:** .NET Senior + Hangfire Orchestrator + EF Modeler
-- **Frontend Teammate:** Blazor Builder + UI/UX Designer
-- **Infra Teammate:** Azure Architect + Bicep Architect
-- **Testing Teammate:** Testing Specialist
-
-**Workflow:**
-1. Lead assigns tasks by module
-2. Each teammate implements their tasks independently
-3. Teammates run `morph-spec task done {feature} {task-id}` after each task
-4. Validation pipeline runs automatically (contract compliance, decisions constraints)
-5. Lead synthesizes recap.md after all tasks complete
-
-### Pattern 2: Architecture Decision Debate (FASE 2)
-
-**Scenario:** Multiple valid approaches for complex problem
-
-```
-Create an agent team to decide on the authentication architecture.
-Spawn 3 debate teammates:
-- Pro-Clerk: Argue for Clerk.com (ease of use, modern UI, MFA built-in)
-- Pro-Azure AD: Argue for Azure AD B2C (enterprise compliance, existing infra)
-- Pro-Custom: Argue for custom JWT + Passkeys (full control, no vendor lock-in)
-
-Have them debate, challenge each other's assumptions, and document pros/cons.
-Update decisions.md with consensus.
-```
-
-**Output:** Structured ADR in `decisions.md` with all perspectives considered
-
-### Pattern 3: Code Review by Concern (Post-FASE 5)
-
-**Scenario:** Thorough review before production deployment
-
-```
-Create an agent team to review the scheduled-reports implementation.
-Spawn 4 reviewers:
-- Security reviewer: Auth, SQL injection, XSS, secrets management
-- Performance reviewer: Query efficiency, caching, background job overhead
-- Standards reviewer: Blazor patterns, EF Core best practices, contract compliance
-- UX reviewer: Accessibility, responsive design, error handling
-
-Each reviewer reports findings to the lead, then synthesize into review.md
-```

-
-## Best Practices for MORPH-SPEC
-
-### 1. Size Tasks Appropriately
-
-**Good task granularity (5-6 tasks per teammate):**
-```json
-{
-  "id": "T003",
-  "title": "Implement report scheduling service",
-  "module": "backend",
-  "files": ["Services/ReportScheduler.cs", "Jobs/GenerateReportJob.cs"],
-  "estimatedHours": 2
-}
-```
-
-**Too small (coordination overhead > benefit):**
-```json
-{ "id": "T001", "title": "Add using statement" }
-```
-
-**Too large (teammate works too long without check-ins):**
-```json
-{ "id": "T099", "title": "Implement entire authentication system" }
-```
-
-### 2. Prevent File Conflicts
-
-**Design task ownership to avoid overlapping edits:**
-
-❌ **Bad (conflict risk):**
-- Backend teammate modifies `Program.cs` for DI
-- Frontend teammate modifies `Program.cs` for middleware
-
-✅ **Good (isolated ownership):**
-- Backend teammate: `Services/`, `Data/`, `Jobs/`
-- Frontend teammate: `Pages/`, `Components/`, `wwwroot/`
-- Lead handles shared files (`Program.cs`, `appsettings.json`) after review
-
-### 3. Leverage Shared Context
-
-**All teammates automatically load:**
-- `CLAUDE.md` (MORPH-SPEC instructions)
-- `.claude/skills/` (all available skills)
-- `.morph/config.json` (project configuration)
-- `framework/standards/` + `.morph/standards/`
-
-**Pass task-specific context in spawn prompt:**
-```
-Spawn backend teammate with prompt: "Implement scheduled reports feature.
-Active agents: ef-modeler, hangfire-orchestrator, dotnet-senior.
-Read .morph/project/outputs/scheduled-reports/spec.md and contracts.cs.
-Follow Blazor concurrency patterns from framework/standards/blazor-state.md.
-All background jobs MUST use IDbContextFactory (scoped repository pattern)."
-```
-
-### 4. Use Hooks for Quality Gates
-
-**Enforce validation before task completion:**
-
-```json
-// .claude/hooks.json
-{
-  "TaskCompleted": {
-    "command": "morph-spec validate-task ${MORPH_FEATURE} ${TASK_ID}",
-    "exitCode2Feedback": "Task validation failed. Fix violations before marking complete."
-  },
-  "TeammateIdle": {
-    "command": "morph-spec check-teammate-progress ${TEAMMATE_ID}",
-    "exitCode2Feedback": "Teammate has incomplete work. Continue implementation."
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 5. Monitor Token Usage
-
-**Agent Teams = High Token Cost:**
-- Each teammate = separate Claude instance with full context
-- 4 teammates on a 2-hour task ≈ 4x token usage vs single session
-
-**When worth it:**
-- Parallel implementation of 3+ independent modules
-- Complex architecture decisions requiring debate
-- Time-sensitive features where parallel work reduces calendar time
-
-**When NOT worth it:**
-- Single-module features
-- Sequential refactoring
-- Simple bug fixes
-
----
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Issue: Lead Implements Instead of Delegating
-
-**Symptom:** Lead starts coding tasks instead of waiting for teammates
-
-**Solution:**
-```
-Wait for your teammates to complete their tasks before proceeding.
-Use delegate mode to restrict yourself to coordination only.
-```
-Then press `Shift+Tab` to cycle into delegate mode.
-
-### Issue: Task Not Marked Complete
-
-**Symptom:** Teammate finished work but task still shows "in_progress"
-
-**Solution:**
-```
-# Check if validation passed
-morph-spec state get {feature}
-
-# If validation failed, teammate must fix violations
-Tell the frontend teammate to check validation output and fix contract violations
-
-# If validation passed but task stuck, manually mark complete
-morph-spec task done {feature} {task-id}
-```
-
-### Issue: Orphaned tmux Sessions
-
-**Symptom:** `tmux ls` shows team sessions after cleanup
-
-**Solution:**
-```bash
-tmux kill-session -t scheduled-reports-team
-rm -rf ~/.claude/teams/scheduled-reports
-```
-
-### Issue: Permission Prompts Spam
-
-**Symptom:** Too many permission requests for teammates
-
-**Solution:** Pre-approve common operations in `settings.local.json`:
-```json
-{
-  "dangerouslySkipPermissions": {
-    "allowedPaths": [".morph/project/outputs/**"],
-    "allowedCommands": ["morph-spec task done", "morph-spec validate-*"]
-  }
-}
-```
-

-
-## Integration with MORPH Workflows
-
-### Full MORPH (9 phases) + Agent Teams
-
-| Phase | Team Usage |
-|-------|------------|
-| **0 PROPOSAL** | Single session (detect-agents) |
-| **1 SETUP** | Single session |
-| **1.5 UI/UX** | Optional: Spawn UI/UX designer teammate for mockup generation |
-| **2 DESIGN** | Optional: Spawn debate team for DECISION POINTS |
-| **3 CLARIFY** | Single session |
-| **4 TASKS** | Single session (generate tasks.json) |
-| **5 IMPLEMENT** | **Primary use case:** Spawn implementation team by module |
-| **6 SYNC** | Single session (lead synthesizes decisions.md → standards/) |
-
-### Fast Track + Agent Teams
-
-**Not recommended:** Coordination overhead defeats purpose of fast workflow.
-
-**Exception:** If fast-track task expands during implementation:
-```
-morph-spec state set {feature} workflow full-morph
-# Then create agent team for expanded scope
-```
-
----
-
-## Limitations (as of 2026-02-12)
-
-- **No session resumption:** `/resume` doesn't restore in-process teammates
-- **Task status can lag:** Manual nudge may be needed
-- **One team per session:** Clean up before starting new team
-- **No nested teams:** Teammates can't spawn their own teams
-- **Split panes require tmux/iTerm2:** Not available in VS Code terminal, Windows Terminal, Ghostty
-
----
-
-## Example: Full MORPH Workflow with Agent Team
-
-```bash
-# FASES 0-4: Single Claude session
-/morph-proposal scheduled-reports
-# ... proposal approved, design approved, tasks generated ...
-
-# FASE 5: Create agent team
-morph-spec state set scheduled-reports phase implement
-```
-
-```
-Create an agent team to implement scheduled-reports.
-
-Team structure based on tasks.json modules:
-- Backend teammate (T001-T005): EF models, Hangfire jobs, repositories
-- Frontend teammate (T006-T010): Blazor pages, components, CSS
-- Infra teammate (T011-T012): Bicep modules for Blob Storage + Service Bus
-
-Require plan approval for each teammate.
-Use delegate mode so I only coordinate.
-```
-
-**Claude creates team, spawns 3 teammates, each works independently:**
-
-```bash
-# Backend teammate
-morph-spec task start scheduled-reports T001
-# ... implements ReportDefinition.cs ...
-morph-spec task done scheduled-reports T001
-# Validation runs: contract-compliance, blazor-concurrency (IDbContextFactory check)
-# ✅ Task T001 completed
-
-# Frontend teammate (parallel)
-morph-spec task start scheduled-reports T006
-# ... implements ReportDashboard.razor ...
-morph-spec task done scheduled-reports T006
-# Validation runs: blazor-validator, css-validator, contrast-checker
-# ✅ Task T006 completed
-```
-
-**After all tasks complete, lead synthesizes:**
-```bash
-morph-spec generate recap scheduled-reports
-# Pulls data from state.json, validation results, contracts.cs
-# Generates comprehensive recap.md
-
-morph-spec phase advance scheduled-reports
-# Validates FASE 5 → advances to FASE 6 → shows next steps
-```
-
----
-
-## Summary
-
-**Agent Teams enable MORPH-SPEC to:**
-- Implement multi-module features in parallel (reduces calendar time)
-- Debate architecture decisions with multiple perspectives
-- Conduct thorough reviews across security/performance/standards
-
-**Use when:**
-- 3+ independent modules/components
-- Complex architecture decisions
-- Cross-stack coordination (backend + frontend + infra)
-
-**Avoid when:**
-- Single-module features
-- Sequential workflows
-- Same-file modifications needed
-
-**Key insight:** Agent Teams amplify MORPH-SPEC's strengths (structured workflows, spec-driven development, validation pipeline) by parallelizing implementation while maintaining quality gates and coordination.
