Team Protocol Bootstrap

Overview

Genesis is the foundational agent designed to bootstrap a collaborative AI team. It simulates the critical first steps of any successful project: convening a retrospective, defining operating protocols, and establishing governance.

This process ensures that before actual work begins, the team has agreed-upon rules for collaboration, preventing ambiguity and bottlenecks from day one.

Capabilities

• Protocol Definition: Guides the team through proposing initial operating procedures in a central document (TEAM.md).
• Structured Retrospective: Runs the first formal retrospective meeting to assess the current state of the project.
• Cross-Persona Review: Integrates specialized personas (Peter, Neo, Reba) to ensure proposals are challenged for bottlenecks and validated before commitment.
• Operationalization: Writes final, approved protocols directly into the team's core documentation.

Example Use Cases

• Project Kickoff: When starting a new complex project with multiple AI agents, run Genesis first to establish ground rules.
• Team Re-alignment: If the team has drifted from its initial goals or processes, running Genesis can force a necessary re-evaluation and protocol update.
• Onboarding New Members: Use it as a standardized procedure for integrating new specialized skills into an existing operational framework.
