team-composition

What problem does it solve?

Engineering managers often struggle to identify missing capabilities in their teams, leading to suboptimal hiring and assignment decisions. This Skill diagnoses team skill gaps and provides concrete recommendations.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Dungeon Party Model: Classifies engineers into Warrior, Tank, Healer, Wizard, and Rogue to reveal role gaps.
• Barrels and Ammunition: Determines whether slow delivery is due to a lack of “barrels” (end‑to‑end owners) versus excess “ammunition.”
• Commandos/Infantry/Police: Matches engineer types to the current product phase to explain performance mismatches.
• Minimum Team Size: Advises on viable team size based on proven engineering principles.
• Use Case Example: When a manager asks “What role should I hire next?” the Skill returns the most critical archetype to fill.
