When To Use

• loom team start <TEAM> succeeds, but manager pane shows dead (status 1) and capture output is empty.

Diagnose

• Confirm run exists:
  • loom team status <TEAM> --show-dead
• Capture manager:
  • loom team capture <TEAM> manager --lines 200 --header
• Open the capture metadata file under .team/runs/<TEAM>/captures/*.json and check:
  • pane.start_command
  • pane.current_command
  • pane.dead

Common Root Cause: Missing team Binary

• If pane.start_command begins with team tui ...:
  • Verify: command -v team (likely missing)
  • Verify Loom exists: command -v loom
  • This means the pane died because tmux tried to run team directly.
