Team Orchestration
An agent team is a lead plus several teammates, each its own full session with its own context, sharing a task list and able to message each other directly. That buys mid-work coordination that subagents cannot give: a subagent reports back to its caller and stops, a teammate can tell another teammate "the response shape changed" while both are still working.
Core principle: form a team only when teammates must talk to each other mid-work. Teams cost far more tokens than subagents because every teammate is a separate instance, and token use grows with every active teammate. If no teammate ever needs another's discovery before finishing, use godmode:parallel-execution or godmode:delegated-execution.
The Prime Directive
NO TEAM WITHOUT AT LEAST TWO PAIRS OF TEAMMATES THAT MUST SHARE FINDINGS MID-WORK
No exceptions. No workarounds. No shortcuts.
