agent-teams

agent-teams is a skill for Claude Code from athola/claude-night-market. It costs 30 tokens per session (2,393 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coordination guide for running multiple Claude command-line agents together through shared files. It covers parallel work, task dependencies, and team communication.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to coordinate parallel implementation, multi-agent code reviews, and large refactors across several modules.
Why use it?
It helps split large coding tasks across independent agents without losing track of their work or dependencies.

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

agent-teams 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 8d 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.

Agent Teams Coordination

Overview

Claude Code Agent Teams enables multiple Claude CLI processes to collaborate on shared work through a filesystem-based coordination protocol. Each teammate runs as an independent claude process in a tmux pane, communicating via JSON files guarded by fcntl locks, with no database, daemon, or network layer.

This skill provides the patterns for orchestrating agent teams effectively.

When To Use

  • Parallel implementation across multiple files or modules
  • Multi-agent code review (one agent reviews, another implements fixes)
  • Large refactoring requiring coordinated changes across subsystems
  • Tasks with natural parallelism that benefit from concurrent agents

When NOT To Use

  • Single-file changes or small tasks (overhead exceeds benefit)
  • Tasks requiring tight sequential reasoning (agents coordinate loosely)
  • When claude CLI is not available or tmux is not installed

Prerequisites

# Verify Claude Code CLI
claude --version

# Verify tmux (required for split-pane mode)
tmux -V

# Enable experimental feature (set by spawner automatically)
export CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1

Protocol Architecture

~/.claude/
  teams/<team-name>/
    config.json            # Team metadata + member roster
    inboxes/
      <agent-name>.json    # Per-agent message queue
      .lock                # fcntl exclusive lock
  tasks/<team-name>/
    1.json ... N.json      # Auto-incrementing task files
    .lock                  # fcntl exclusive lock

Design principles:

  • Filesystem is the database: JSON files, atomic writes via tempfile + os.replace
  • fcntl locking: Prevents concurrent read/write corruption on inboxes and tasks
  • Numbered tasks: Auto-incrementing IDs with sequential file naming
  • Loose coupling: Agents poll their own inbox; no push notifications

What ships with it

7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

agent-teams is a skill published in the GitHub repository athola/claude-night-market (337 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 2,393 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.
