team-topology

Define a multi-agent team for ANY task on ANY system as an explicit deployment topology - pick the shape from the task's dominant risk, specify the runtime/communication/trust layers, place model capability by lane, present it as a diagram + table + trust-boundary note + open choices, and deploy ONLY after the user agrees to the proposed shape. Use when the user asks to "define/design/lay out the team", "what topology are we deploying", "how should the agents be arranged", "design the team for <task>", "what formation for <task>", or wants a team expressed as a topology (nodes, edges, models, trust boundaries) rather than spawned ad hoc. Substrate-agnostic - Cotal mesh, harness subagents, Workflow stages, containers, or any orchestration system.
