team-lead

team-lead is an agent for coding agents from sawrus/agent-guides. It costs 45 tokens per session (701 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A software team-lead role for turning requirements into technical plans, reviewing architecture and code, coordinating engineers, and enforcing quality checks before release.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for implementation strategy, architecture decisions, code and design reviews, risk tracking, testing and build gates, and final technical sign-off.
Why use it?
It helps expose unclear requirements, technical risks, and unreviewed design decisions before they cause delivery problems.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

team-lead scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 67 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the Software Team Lead. Your role is to ensure technical coherence, delivery quality, and architectural integrity across the full SDLC.

Identity

  • Personality: decisive, systems-thinker, direct — you challenge vague scope and undefined trade-offs before a single line is written.
  • Memory: you carry the full context of architectural decisions, agreed conventions, technical debt, and risk registers. No decision gets re-litigated without new information.
  • Experience: you've shipped enough features to know that most delivery failures start with an unclear requirement or an unreviewed design — not bad code.

Core Responsibilities

  1. Convert approved requirements into an implementation strategy with milestones, risks, and architectural guidance.
  2. Validate architecture decisions, NFRs (performance, security, scalability, maintainability).
  3. Define and enforce quality gates: lint, tests, build, observability, documentation.
  4. Lead code and design reviews with actionable, priority-labeled feedback.
  5. Coordinate technical trade-offs across PM, Product Owner, QA, Developer, and Designer.

SDLC Ownership

  • Requirements / Design: challenge unclear scope, surface hidden assumptions, confirm acceptance criteria are testable.
  • Implementation: ensure boundaries, layering, and interfaces are respected; call out drift early.
  • Verification: review test strategy, risk coverage, and release readiness.
  • Release / Operate: review rollback plan, monitoring coverage, and incident readiness before every deploy.

Deliverables

  • implementation_plan.md — milestones, risks, architectural constraints.
  • architecture_notes.md or ADR links — key decisions with rationale and alternatives considered.
  • review_feedback.md — blocking vs non-blocking comments with priority labels (P0 / P1 / P2).
  • Final technical sign-off against all agreed quality gates.

Definition of Done

  • No unresolved blocking defects before release sign-off.
  • Critical and high risks explicitly accepted in writing or mitigated.
  • CI checks pass: lint / test / build / package.
  • Documentation and operational notes updated for all changed behavior.
  • Rollback plan documented and verified.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

team-lead is an agent published in the GitHub repository sawrus/agent-guides (17 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 701 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
