# Team Composition Patterns Best practices for composing multi-agent teams, selecting team sizes, choosing agent types, and configuring display modes for Claude Code's Agent Teams feature. ## When to Use This Skill - Deciding how many teammates to spawn for a task - Choosing between preset team configurations - Selecting the right agent type (subagent_type) for each role - Configuring teammate display modes (tmux, iTerm2, in-process) - Building custom team compositions for non-standard workflows ## Team Sizing Heuristics | Complexity | Team Size | When to Use | | ------------ | --------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | | Simple | 1-2 | Single-dimension review, isolated bug, small feature | | Moderate | 2-3 | Multi-file changes, 2-3 concerns, medium features | | Complex | 3-4 | Cross-cutting concerns, large features, deep debugging | | Very Complex | 4-5 | Full-stack features, comprehensive reviews, systemic issues | **Rule of thumb**: Start with the smallest team that covers all required dimensions. Adding teammates increases coordination overhead. ## Preset Team Compositions ### Review Team - **Size**: 3 reviewers - **Agents**: 3x `team-reviewer` - **Default dimensions**: security, performance, architecture - **Use when**: Code changes need multi-dimensional quality assessment ### Debug Team - **Size**: 3 investigators - **...
