agent-teams is agent-read markdown (skill) from athola/claude-night-market: Coordinates Claude agent teams via filesystem protocol. Use when orchestrating parallel agents with task dependencies. Do not use for single-agent tasks..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

# Agent Teams Coordination
## Overview
Claude Code Agent Teams enables multiple Claude CLI processes to collaborate on shared work through a filesystem-based coordination protocol. Each teammate runs as an independent `claude` process in a tmux pane, communicating via JSON files guarded by `fcntl` locks, with no database, daemon, or network layer.
This skill provides the patterns for orchestrating agent teams effectively.
## When To Use
- Parallel implementation across multiple files or modules
- Multi-agent code review (one agent reviews, another implements fixes)
- Large refactoring requiring coordinated changes across subsystems
- Tasks with natural parallelism that benefit from concurrent agents
## When NOT To Use
- Single-file changes or small tasks (overhead exceeds benefit)
- Tasks requiring tight sequential reasoning (agents coordinate loosely)
- When `claude` CLI is not available or tmux is not installed
## Prerequisites
```bash
# Verify Claude Code CLI
claude --version
# Verify tmux (required for split-pane mode)
tmux -V
# Enable experimental feature (set by spawner automatically)
export CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1
```
