How a HUMAN creates or joins a Brigade team — `team create` with the `!` prefix inside a session or from a terminal, `/brigade:join <path>` to join — and how to leave and uninstall: the Supabase project prerequisites, `team create` (which writes the project's committed `.brigade.json`), the one-line `/brigade:join <path>`, and the removal order. Use when someone asks how to set Brigade up, join a team, add a teammate, leave, or remove the plugin. It never asks anyone to paste a join secret…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Setting Brigade up

A Brigade team belongs to a **project**: a committed file, `.brigade.json`, at the repository's top level names the
team every session in that checkout talks to. It carries only public values, so it is safe in version control; the
join secret is never in it. The administrator writes the file once; each member runs one command in their checkout.
The file may carry optional members the project commits by hand: `sync` (folders to keep in step), `gateway` (how
people without a session reach the team) and `polling` (how often sessions check in with the backend, to stay
inside a plan's request budget, and how long a session the VS Code extension started may stay idle before it
closes itself). `docs/team-admin/configure/team-file.md` in the Brigade repository describes each.

Every command below is the **person's** to run. Inside a Claude Code session the `!` prefix runs it on the Bash
tool's PATH, where `brigade` already is, and its output lands in the conversation — never a secret. In a terminal
the same command runs through the binary at `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/brigade`; a symlink such as
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add appshapes/brigade/setup@sha256:d4e5f5d7ba9e072f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261017.a9fa483, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
