* Add ai-team-orchestration plugin: multi-agent dev team with Producer, Dev Team, QA agents * fix: use kebab-case agent names to match filenames * fix: regenerate README after agent name change * fix: address Copilot review — add edit tools to Producer/QA, use GitHub closing keywords * fix: update agent tools to official VS Code tool set names Replace outdated/nonexistent tool names with current official tool sets: - Producer: search, read, edit, web (removed nonexistent githubRepo) - Dev Team: search, read, edit, execute, web (replaced runCommands, problems, usages, etc.) - QA: search, read, edit, execute, web (removed nonexistent findTestFiles, runTests) Ref: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/reference/copilot-vscode-features#_chat-tools * fix: remove frontmatter from plugin README per reviewer feedback --------- Co-authored-by: Aaron Powell <me@aaron-powell.com>

PROJECT_BRIEF.md Template
Copy this template to your project root and fill in every section. Do not abbreviate sections 12-14 — they are critical for cross-chat context survival.
# PROJECT_BRIEF.md — [Project Name]
> Last updated: [date] | Sprint [N] | Status: [In Progress / Complete]
## 1. Project Overview
[3-4 sentences describing what the project is, who it's for, and the core goal.]
## 2. Concept / Product Description
[Detailed description of the product — user flows, key features, narrative if applicable.]
## 3. Tech Stack
- **Frontend:** [framework, language, key libraries]
- **Backend:** [runtime, framework, database]
- **Hosting:** [platform, CDN, storage]
- **Testing:** [test framework, E2E tool]
- **CI/CD:** [pipeline tool]
## 4. Architecture
┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Frontend │ │ [Main Component] → [Sub Components] │ └──────────────┬──────────────────────────┘ │ HTTPS ┌──────────────▼──────────────────────────┐ │ Backend API │ │ [Endpoints and their purpose] │ └──────────────┬──────────────────────────┘ │ ┌──────────────▼──────────────────────────┐ │ Storage / Database │ │ [Tables, collections, env vars] │ └─────────────────────────────────────────┘
## 5. Key Files Map
| Area | Path | Contents |
|------|------|----------|
| Entry point | `src/main.tsx` | App bootstrap |
| API | `api/src/` | Server-side logic |
| Config | `api/src/config/` | Server-only configuration |
| Tests | `tests/` | E2E and API tests |
| Sprint docs | `docs/sprint-N/` | Plans, progress, done |
## 6. Team Roles
| Agent | Name | Role |
|-------|------|------|
| Producer | Remy | Sprint plans, coordination, merging |
| Frontend | Nova | UI components, state, client logic |
| Backend | Sage | API, auth, database, security |
| Art/CSS | Milo | Visual design, animations, polish |
| QA | Ivy | Testing, bug filing, sign-off |
| Product | Kira | UX design, mechanics, feature specs |
| DevOps | Dash | CI/CD, deployment, infrastructure |
## 7. Sprint Status
| Sprint | Name | Status | Scope |
|--------|------|--------|-------|
| 0 | Architecture | ✅ Done | Tech stack, project structure, design guide |
| 1 | Core Features | 🔨 In Progress | [scope description] |
## 8. Current State (rewrite every sprint)
**What works:**
- [List of working features]
**What doesn't work yet:**
- [Known issues]
**What's next:**
- [Next sprint goals]
## 9. Security Rules
1. Secrets live in environment variables only — never in code or git.
2. [Auth approach]
3. [Additional security rules]
## 10. How to Run Locally
```bash
npm install
cd api && npm install
cp api/local.settings.json.example api/local.settings.json
npm run dev:all
11. How to Deploy
[Pipeline description, env var locations, deployment steps]
12. Cross-Chat Handoff Protocol
Every sprint chat must do these before finishing:
- Write
docs/sprint-N/done.md— what was built, what's not done, what needs manual setup, files changed/created - Update PROJECT_BRIEF.md: Section 7 (mark sprint done) + Section 8 (rewrite current state)
- Commit all changes with descriptive message:
sprint-N: <summary>
This is how context survives across chats. If skipped, the next chat starts blind and may overwrite or duplicate work. The repo is the shared memory — keep it accurate.
13. Bug & Fix Tracking
Bugs are tracked as GitHub Issues on the repo. Single source of truth for all teams.
For QA: File bugs as GitHub Issues with labels (bug, severity:blocker/major/minor). Include: component, steps to reproduce, expected vs actual. When no blockers found: write docs/qa/sprint-N-signoff.md with test count, pass rate, explicit "no blockers" statement.
For Dev Team: Check GitHub Issues before starting work. Fix blockers and majors before polish. Use GitHub closing keywords in commits: fix: description (Fixes #42). For reference-only, use Refs #42.
For DevOps: File infrastructure issues with label infra.
For feature ideas: add to docs/ideas-backlog.md.
14. Multi-Repo Setup
Each team works in their own separate clone of the repo. No worktrees. Everyone works on their own branch, pushes to origin, creates PRs.
Teams:
- Producer on
main(coordination hub) - Dev Team on
feature/sprint-N - QA on
feature/qa-N - DevOps on
feature/devops-N(only when needed)
Setup:
git clone <repo> <folder-name>
cd <folder-name>
git checkout -b <branch-name>
npm install
Branch strategy: Feature branches → PR → regular merge to main. Never push directly to main. Never squash. Never rebase feature branches (causes commit loss).
