Squad Agents

Overview

Squad gives you an AI development team through GitHub Copilot. Describe what you're building and get a team of specialists — frontend, backend, tester, lead — that live in your repo as files. Each team member runs in its own context, reads only its own knowledge, writes back what it learned, and persists across sessions.

Squad is alpha software (CLI 0.13.x): commands and file layout change between releases. The squad CLI sets up and maintains the team; the conversation itself happens in the GitHub Copilot CLI or in VS Code Copilot Chat.
