arn-code-execute-plan-teams

This skill should be used when the user says "execute plan with teams", "run plan teams", "execute with agent teams", "team execution", "execute plan with agent teams instead of subagents", "teams mode", "agent teams mode", "execute with teams", or wants to execute a structured project plan using Claude Code's experimental Agent Teams feature. Creates a team of executor, reviewer, and architect teammates that collaborate on task implementation with built-in quality gates. Requires the experimental Agent Teams feature to be enabled. For standard subagent-based execution, use arn-code-execute-plan instead.

Quality

Content

77%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A detailed, highly actionable workflow skill with clear sequencing and strong validation/feedback loops. Its main weaknesses are token-efficiency (redundancy between Error Handling and the workflow steps) and limited progressive disclosure, where heavy spawn-prompt specifications remain inline rather than being factored into reference files.

Suggestions

Remove the redundancy between the Error Handling section and the workflow steps: convert it to a short cross-reference or a compact table of failure mode -> recovery action, since Step 1, Step 2, and Step 5 already cover most of these cases.

Extract the detailed teammate spawn-prompt specifications (executor, reviewer, architect role blocks) into a reference file such as references/teammate-prompts.md, leaving SKILL.md as a concise overview that points to it — this moves progressive_disclosure toward a 3.

Tighten the Cost Considerations section so it does not restate the 'Use this when' guidance already present in the description; keep only the concrete token-multiplier figures and cost-mitigation tips.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is mostly efficient operational guidance with no padded explanations of concepts Claude already knows, but the Error Handling section restates workflow steps (e.g., Agent Teams not enabled, project directory missing) and Cost Considerations overlaps the 'Use this when' guidance. This fits the 2-anchor (mostly efficient but could be tightened) rather than the 3-anchor (every token earns its place).

2 / 3

Actionability

Provides fully executable guidance: 'echo $CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS', concrete JSON/bash snippets, precise test targeting ('pytest tests/test_specific.py::TestClass', 'jest --testPathPattern=specific.test.ts'), and named tool calls (TaskList, TaskUpdate, TaskCreate, AskUserQuestion) with parameters. Matches the 3-anchor (copy-paste ready, specific examples), not the 2-anchor (pseudocode/missing details).

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

A clear 6-step sequence with explicit validation checkpoints (availability check in Step 1, project structure verification in Step 2, reviewer quality gates) and feedback loops for error recovery ('needs-fixes -> executor fixes -> re-review; if fix cycle exceeds 2 iterations, lead intervenes and escalates'). This matches the 3-anchor; validation is present for the batch/team operation so it is not capped at 2.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

Sections are well-organized and the single external reference is cleanly signaled and one level deep ('Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/.../references/pattern-refresh.md and follow the pattern refresh procedure'). However, ~35 lines of detailed teammate spawn-prompt and role specifications are inline rather than split into reference files, fitting the 2-anchor (content that should be separate is inline) rather than the 3-anchor (concise overview pointing to detail files).

Description

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong description: it explicitly states both what the skill does and when to use it, lists concrete roles and actions, supplies abundant natural trigger phrases, and clearly distinguishes itself from the subagent-based alternative. Voice is consistently third person, incurring no penalty.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Names multiple concrete actions and roles: 'Creates a team of executor, reviewer, and architect teammates that collaborate on task implementation with built-in quality gates.' This matches the 3-anchor (lists multiple specific concrete actions) rather than the 2-anchor, which only names a domain and some actions.

3 / 3

Completeness

Clearly answers both what ('Creates a team of executor, reviewer, and architect teammates...') and when via an explicit 'This skill should be used when the user says...' trigger clause. An explicit 'Use when...'-equivalent clause is present, so completeness is not capped at 2.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Provides extensive natural phrasings a user would actually say: 'execute plan with teams', 'run plan teams', 'team execution', 'teams mode', 'agent teams mode', 'execute with teams'. This is good coverage of natural terms, matching the 3-anchor; it is not the 2-anchor (only some keywords missing variations).

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Has a clear niche (Agent Teams-based execution) and explicitly disambiguates from the sibling skill: 'For standard subagent-based execution, use arn-code-execute-plan instead.' The distinct team-oriented triggers make wrong-skill conflicts unlikely.
