mad-teams

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the chaos of manually coordinating multiple AI agents for complex development workflows. Without standardized team composition templates and dispatch protocols, parallel agent execution leads to file conflicts, duplicated work, and inconsistent synthesis of results.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Team Templates: Six pre-configured patterns (Research Swarm, Review Board, Parallel Implementation, Parallel Validation, PR Review Board, Debate Panel) for common multi-agent scenarios.
• Smart Dispatch Protocol: Automated decision logic that evaluates task count, file ownership, and estimated duration to choose between agent teams and sequential subagents.
• Cost Optimization: Built-in model selection guidance (Sonnet for teammates, Opus for leads) reducing costs by up to 40% while maintaining output quality.
• Use Case: A development team implementing a complex feature can use this Skill to automatically spawn parallel researchers to investigate multiple technical topics, then coordinate a review board to validate findings, all managed by a lead agent.

Quick Start

Use the mad-teams skill to coordinate a parallel research swarm for investigating authentication, authorization, and session management patterns in the current feature.
