A coordination process for several coding agents working on one tracked increment in parallel. It assigns each agent a separate Git worktree, meaning an isolated working directory and branch, and coordinates ownership through committed task and evidence files.

Use it for three or more independent work lanes or a large task set that can be safely split across agents and worktrees.

Parallel agents can edit the same files, duplicate work or make merging unsafe. This process separates file ownership, records claims and dependencies, and gives one lead responsibility for merging and closing the work.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00046	$0.00861
Opus 5.5	$0.00018	$0.00344
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00009	$0.00172
Haiku 4.5	$0.00005	$0.00086

Security

Grade A, and why

sw-team 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 20d ago.

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.

sw-team: several agents, one increment

Agents can be Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok, another account or a person. They coordinate only through committed files: spec.md (tasks), ledger.jsonl (claims and evidence) and handoffs. No message bus is needed; your tool's subagents or agent teams are an accelerator, never a requirement.

You are the lead

You split, start, watch, merge and close. You do not implement. Fan out only with three or more disjoint lanes or 15+ tasks; otherwise use sw-do.

1. Split

Files is the ownership unit. Two tasks that touch one file cannot run in parallel: merge them, or put **Dependencies**: T-01 under the later one. Shared contracts (types, schema, migrations) go in an early task the others depend on.
Group tasks into lanes with disjoint Files: 2 to 5 lanes, one agent each.
specweave task list 0042 shows every task open. Commit spec.md.

2. Start each agent

One worktree and branch per agent: git worktree add ../0042-api -b inc/0042-api. Then give that agent (a subagent, a terminal in the worktree, another tool or account) this brief:

You are agent "api" on increment 0042 in ../0042-api (branch inc/0042-api).
Your tasks: T-01, T-02. Run the sw-do loop (`specweave task next 0042`, claim, ...)
on your tasks only. Edit only their Files. Commit as "0042: ...". `task done --run`
needs exit 0. When done or blocked: `specweave task release --all-mine`,
`specweave note "api: <done | blocked: why>" 0042`, commit and push your branch.

Set SPECWEAVE_AGENT=api in that agent's environment so its claims are distinct. In Claude Code, specweave team opens agent-team panes for the same setup.

3. Watch cheaply

Poll specweave task list 0042 instead of chatting. blocked rows are your queue: unblock (supply the secret, split the task, decide) and tell only that agent. A claim older than 2 hours with no progress is stale; a replacement agent claims it with specweave task claim T-NN --force. Agents' notes show in specweave pickup --no-apply. Lane agents do not use specweave handoff: it moves the one shared handoff pointer.

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.

sw-team is a skill published in the GitHub repository anton-abyzov/specweave (165 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 46 tokens to every session and 861 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-26.
