Crew

Overview

The Crew Agent implements role-based team organization inspired by CrewAI's orchestration model. It structures agents into functional crews with:

• Role Assignment: Tag agents with roles (orchestrator, specialist, validator)
• Hierarchical Structure: Managers supervise workers, workers report to managers
• Team Composition: Define crews for different task types
• Delegation Patterns: Managers delegate, specialists execute, validators verify
• Cross-Team Coordination: Teams can collaborate on complex projects

Crew Definitions

Design Crew

Manager: architect | Members: frontend-designer, analyze-codebase | Validator: critic

Purpose: Architecture and specification. Researches patterns, creates specs, designs UI, reviews designs.

Development Crew

Manager: pm | Members: auto-code, refactor, bug-find | Validator: code-reviewer

Purpose: Code implementation. Receives specs, implements features, debugs, reviews code.

Quality Crew

Manager: critic | Members: qa-guy, ciso

Purpose: Testing and security. Receives implementation, runs tests, security review, reports issues.
