| Argument | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
context | Yes | Organization, product, or system to design teams for |
teams | No | Target number of teams (helps constrain design) |
mode | No | design (default), analyze, or evolve |
Create a new team structure from scratch:
Evaluate an existing team structure:
Plan evolution from current to target state:
Load required skills for team design guidance:
Skills to load:
- team-topologies (team type definitions)
- inverse-conway (architecture alignment)
- cognitive-load-assessment (load analysis)
- interaction-patterns (interaction modes)
- team-api-design (team interfaces)
Based on mode, gather relevant information:
For Design Mode:
For Analyze Mode:
For Evolve Mode:
Delegate to the team-architect agent for comprehensive analysis:
Task: Design team structure for {context}
Mode: {mode}
Constraints: {teams if specified}
Provide:
- Team type recommendations
- Bounded context mapping
- Interaction patterns
- Cognitive load assessment
- Evolution roadmap (if evolve mode)
Present the team structure design with:

npx claudepluginhub melodic-software/claude-code-plugins --plugin team-designGuides organizational design using Team Topologies: four team types (stream-aligned, platform, enabling, complicated subsystem), interaction modes, cognitive load, Inverse Conway Maneuver. For aligning teams with architecture.
Guides team structure design using Team Topologies' four fundamental team types: stream-aligned, platform, enabling, and complicated subsystem teams.
Assesses team structure against Team Topologies, evaluating cognitive load, interaction modes, Conway's Law alignment, and fracture planes for optimized software delivery.
