`missions.team_engine` (0069): NULL = solo, `'claude_code'` = Claude Code agent
teams inside the mission's VM. Solo stays the default deliberately — Anthropic
measure multi-agent at 3-10x the tokens with wall-clock often LONGER, since the
benefit is thoroughness rather than speed — so a mission that said nothing does not
get a team.
In-process teammates live in the lead's process, so ONE VM hosts the whole team.
That is why this is a prompt-and-env change rather than an orchestration one: no
N-VM fan-out, no placement per teammate, no new completion path.
The lead decides its own team size and there is no flag that limits it, so the cap
(4) is stated in the prompt. The addendum also carries the two anti-patterns from
Anthropic's guidance, because they are exactly the shapes our pipeline templates
have: teammates must own DIFFERENT FILES (two in one file overwrite each other),
and one change must not be split into stages across teammates (a handoff loses
context at every step). And: wait for your teammates — a summary written before
they report is the lead's own guess.
A solo mission's prompt and env are byte-identical to before this change. That is
enforced by test, not by intention: the comparison between solo and team is only
meaningful if the solo side did not also move.
Evidence, because a team mission that forms no team is silently just a solo run
that looked fine and spent fewer tokens: a second probe counts members in
`~/.claude/teams/*/config.json` (minus the lead), reported separately from the
subagent count, and a team mission with zero teammates logs loudly with the two
likely causes. The teammate path is DOCUMENTED BUT NOT YET VERIFIED in our image,
unlike the subagent transcript path which was measured — so a zero there means "no
evidence found", and the first real team mission is what turns it into a fact.
`Option<u32>`: None means no team was asked for or the probe could not run.
Hooks (`TaskCompleted` / `TeammateIdle` exit 2, which would move `done_when` from
post-hoc into the agent's own loop) are the highest-value part of this slice and
are deliberately NOT here — they deserve their own pass rather than a rushed tail.
482 tests pass, clippy clean.
