High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I coordinate agent teams during a live build run without stopping execution?

You can coordinate agent teams mid-run by using a live team-lead workflow with read-only relay lines and an on-disk task list, allowing you to redirect progress and answer questions without killing the run.

How does the mailbox workflow work for delegated build loops?

The mailbox workflow uses a read/write system alongside an on-disk task list to let teammates send live questions and relay milestones, which the team-lead reads and responds to with a structured verdict during the run.

Do I need the Agent Teams experimental flag enabled for live task coordination?

Yes, live task coordination with this approach requires the CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1 flag enabled, which initiates an implicit team per session for the build loop workflow.

What's the best way to handle a teammate's question during an active delegated build?

Handling a teammate's question mid-run is best done via the read/write mailbox workflow, where the team-lead fields the live question and reports a structured verdict back to main without terminating the execution.

Can I redirect agent progress on a task list while the build loop is still running?

Yes, you can redirect agent progress while the build loop runs by watching read-only relays and updating the on-disk task list, which steers teammates in real-time without interrupting the active session.
