What's wrong with this entry?
The explicit TeamCreate and TeamDelete tools have been removed. Multi-agent coordination is now done entirely through the Agent tool's name parameter — no separate team-creation step is needed.
Before (v2.1.177):
// 1. Call TeamCreate to set up the team
// 2. Call Agent with team_name + name to spawn a teammate
// 3. Call TeamDelete when done
After (v2.1.178):
// Just call Agent with a name parameter
Agent({ name: "researcher", prompt: "..." })- Agent swarms remain gated by the same feature flag as before
- The
team_namefield inTeammateIdlehook events is now deprecated (marked@deprecated) — sessions have a single implicit team; the field will be removed in a future release - System prompt guidance now reads: "If this plan can be broken down into multiple independent tasks, consider spawning named teammates with the Agent tool (pass a
name) to parallelize the work." - "main" is now a reserved recipient name for SendMessage — it routes a message directly to the main conversation
Removal of TeamCreate/TeamDelete tools (search for "TeamCreate" absent from new file; guidance string search for "spawning named teammates with the"; reserved name message search for "SendMessage routes it to the main conversation")
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
