Custom teams
A custom team is a saved team you define once and launch again later. Each team has 2 to 4 roles, and you can keep up to 20 saved teams.
Where a preset gives you a fixed pair of roles, a custom team lets you set the roles, the agent behind each role, and per-role standing instructions, then save the whole thing under a name.
Roles
A team needs at least 2 roles and holds at most 4. Each role has:
- An agent: which CLI runs that role. You pick it with the agent picker.
- Standing instructions: a note saying what the role focuses on and how it works. This shapes that one role. How the roles hand work to each other is Coldtea's job, not yours.
- A short summary: a one-line description the other roles can see.
You can add a role until you reach 4, and remove a role until you reach the minimum of 2. At launch, each role starts in its own pane with its assigned agent, the same one-pane-per-role model described in the overview.
Rename
A team has an editable name. Rename it in place from the edit form when the name no longer fits.
Create a team
You create a team by talking to an agent. From the Agent Teams screen, open the create panel and pick an agent. It opens in a new tab, interviews you about the roles and instructions you want, and saves the team for you.
Once a team exists, you edit it directly: change the agent per role, adjust the standing instructions, add or remove a role, or rename it.
Limits
- Roles per team: 2 to 4.
- Saved teams: up to 20. To add another once you reach 20, delete one first.
These hold however the team is saved, whether you edit it yourself or an agent creates it for you.
