DevTeam

A coordinated software-development team made of specialized coding agents, including a project manager, developers, a quality tester, a security auditor, and a code reviewer. It is designed for projects where security checks are required before code is merged.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start a project, run the development team on a task, coordinate parallel feature work, check agent progress, test changes, audit web-facing code against common security risks, and review code before merging.
Why use it?
It divides development work among defined roles and coordinates their progress, reducing the need to manage planning, implementation, testing, security review, and code review separately.

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

DevTeam 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (tools/DevTeamInit.ts, tools/MessageBus.ts, tools/TaskBoard.ts, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 158 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

DevTeam

Security-first autonomous multi-agent software development team with hierarchical coordination through a Project Manager (Joshua), parallel developer agents (Hiram instances), QA engineer (Ezra), security auditor (Nehemiah), and code reviewer (Solomon).

Security Policy: CarbeneAI is a "Security Built In, Not Bolted On" organization. All code produced by DevTeam undergoes mandatory security review by Nehemiah before merge. OWASP Top 10 compliance is required for all web-facing code.

Key Projects:

  • carbeneai (carbene.ai) - Parent brand site: open-source tools + training
  • cyberdefensetactics (cyberdefensetactics.com) - Security training academy (the product)
  • purpleteamops (purpleteamops.app) - Hands-on lab + recurring membership

Architecture

User (Orchestrator)
  └── Joshua (PM) — manages tasks, dispatches agents, monitors progress
       ├── Hiram-1 (Dev) — implements tasks in git worktrees
       ├── Hiram-2 (Dev) — implements tasks in parallel
       ├── Ezra (QA) — writes tests, validates acceptance criteria
       ├── Nehemiah (Security) — OWASP audit, auth review, vulnerability scan
       └── Solomon (Review) — code quality review

Coordination model: Hierarchical through Joshua. No peer-to-peer messaging. Communication: File-based inbox/outbox in .devteam/agents/ directory. Task tracking: TODO.md as single source of truth. Parallelism: Tmux sessions via CodingAgent tools. Git worktrees for isolation. Security gate: Nehemiah reviews ALL code before merge (mandatory, never skipped).

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.

DevTeam is a skill published in the GitHub repository CarbeneAI/Forge (9 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 78 tokens to every session and 1,586 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-31.
