AC team-topology
Define a multi-agent team for ANY task on ANY system as an explicit deployment topology - pick the shape from the task's dominant risk, specify the runtime/communication/trust layers, place model capability by lane, present it as a diagram + table + trust-boundary note + open choices, and deploy ONLY after the user agrees to the proposed shape. Use when the user asks to "define/design/lay out the team", "what topology are we deploying", "how should the agents be arranged", "design the team for <task>", "what formation for <task>", or wants a team expressed as a topology (nodes, edges, models, trust boundaries) rather than spawned ad hoc. Substrate-agnostic - Cotal mesh, harness subagents, Workflow stages, containers, or any orchestration system.

As a process C 55/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, inputs and preconditions, running it twice
How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Process rating: all ten parameters 55/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 30Running it twice. 11 mutating operations with no state check
- 60Tools and files. Uses tools (node) that frontmatter does not declare
- 60Failures and branches. 2 branches
- 70When it triggers. States when to use, but not when not to
- 100Steps. 28 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2654 tokens
- medium Safety rules and hard prohibitions inside a skill: they belong in the system prompt, here they protect nothing
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
