team-combat

team-combat is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Donchitos/Claude-Code-Game-Studios. It costs 50 tokens per session (1,688 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An orchestrator for a game combat team covering design, gameplay programming, artificial intelligence, art, sound, and testing. It guides a combat feature from design through implementation and validation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for features such as melee parries or ranged-weapon spread, from initial design to implementation and testing.
Why use it?
Combat features often require several disciplines to work together. This coordinates those roles and collects approval before moving between phases.

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-combat 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 yesterday.

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

Argument check: If no combat feature description is provided, output:

"Usage: /team-combat [combat feature description] — Provide a description of the combat feature to design and implement (e.g., melee parry system, ranged weapon spread)." Then stop immediately without spawning any subagents or reading any files.

When this skill is invoked with a valid argument, orchestrate the combat team through a structured pipeline.

Decision Points: At each phase transition, use AskUserQuestion to present the user with the subagent's proposals as selectable options. Write the agent's full analysis in conversation, then capture the decision with concise labels. The user must approve before moving to the next phase.

Phase 0: Resolve Review Mode

  1. If --review [mode] was passed as an argument, use that mode.
  2. Else read production/review-mode.txt — use whatever is written there.
  3. Else default to lean.

Modes:

  • full — spawn all director and lead gates as described
  • lean — skip director gates unless they are PHASE-GATE type (CD-PHASE-GATE, TD-PHASE-GATE, PR-PHASE-GATE, AD-PHASE-GATE)
  • solo — skip all director gate spawning entirely; run the skill without any agent gates

Store the resolved mode for use in all subsequent phases.

Team Composition

  • game-designer — Design the mechanic, define formulas and edge cases
  • gameplay-programmer — Implement the core gameplay code
  • ai-programmer — Implement NPC/enemy AI behavior for the feature
  • technical-artist — Create VFX, shader effects, and visual feedback
  • sound-designer — Define audio events, impact sounds, and ambient combat audio
  • engine specialist (primary) — Validate architecture and implementation patterns are idiomatic for the engine (read from .claude/docs/technical-preferences.md Engine Specialists section)
  • qa-tester — Write test cases and validate the implementation

How to Delegate

Use the Task tool to spawn each team member as a subagent:

  • subagent_type: game-designer — Design the mechanic, define formulas and edge cases
  • subagent_type: gameplay-programmer — Implement the core gameplay code
  • subagent_type: ai-programmer — Implement NPC/enemy AI behavior
  • subagent_type: technical-artist — Create VFX, shader effects, visual feedback
  • subagent_type: sound-designer — Define audio events, impact sounds, ambient audio
  • subagent_type: [primary engine specialist] — Engine idiom validation for architecture and implementation
  • subagent_type: qa-tester — Write test cases and validate implementation

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.
