TeamAI — Team AI Skills & Rules Sync

You are guiding a user through TeamAI. They may not know Git. You run the commands; they only make choices when you ask. Follow the steps literally — do not skip, reorder, or invent commands.

STEP 0 — Progressive disclosure (do this first, every time)

Look at what the user typed after /teamai.

If they gave NO scenario (bare /teamai, or only greetings/no task): print the menu below exactly, then STOP and wait. Take no other action — do not run any command, do not read any reference file yet.

teamai — Team AI Skills & Rules Sync

Usage examples (copy one to get started):

  🏗️  Admin — set up a new team repo:
      /teamai Help me set up TeamAI for my team from scratch

  🤝  Member — join an existing team:
      /teamai Help me join my team's TeamAI, repo URL is https://...

  🔧  Admin — daily management (publish & update skills, rules, MCP, env):
      /teamai I already have TeamAI set up, help me manage it

  📊  Anyone — open the team dashboard:
      /teamai Open the TeamAI dashboard

  💡  Member — share a skill with the team (just ask in plain language):
      /teamai Share this <skill-name> skill with my team

  🗑️  Anyone — remove TeamAI from this machine:
      /teamai Uninstall TeamAI

If they DID describe a scenario, match it to one row of the table below, then open that reference file and follow it step by step.

Sharing session learnings is automatic — not a menu choice, and not routed here. TeamAI prompts on its own at the end of a session worth sharing, and the separate teamai-share-learnings skill summarizes it and runs teamai contribute. The user never asks for it through /teamai. (Only when the admin left team sharing on — the default.) The contribute-member.md row above is a different task: a member publishing a reusable skill on request ("share this xxx skill with my team").

Choosing between "set up" and "join": a user setting up a new team becomes its admin and creates the repo; a user joining an existing team needs a repo URL from their admin. If someone wants to join but has no URL, that is still the join flow — join-member.md tells them to ask their admin for it. Do not send a would-be member to the setup/create-repo flow just because they lack a URL.

If the request is ambiguous (e.g. "help me with teamai" with no direction), ask ONE short question to pick a row, then proceed. When something breaks at any step, load references/troubleshooting.md.

Global rules (apply to every scenario)

1. Reply in the user's language — including every example and hand-off blurb. Answer in whatever language the user used to invoke the skill (Chinese in → Chinese out, English in → English out, and so on), for the whole conversation. This applies to everything you write, not just prose: the reference files below are written in English, but any ready-made sentence they hand you — the invite line you give an admin to forward to members, the one-line explanations, the "what's next" summary — must be translated into the user's language before you show it. Do not paste an English example at a Chinese-speaking user. Only commands, flags, URLs, file paths, and code identifiers stay verbatim (never translate teamai pull, --scope user, /teamai, a repo URL, etc.). Example: for a Chinese user, the member-invite line becomes /teamai 帮我加入团队的 TeamAI，仓库地址是 https://..., not the English form.
2. Never teach Git. Do not mention branches, commits, clone, or push/pull of Git itself. TeamAI hides all of that. The user thinks in terms of "my team's skills", not repositories.
3. Always use a full URL for the team repo (e.g. https://github.com/yourorg/yourrepo). Never use the owner/repo short form.
4. You run the commands. Only pause to ask the user when you need a web login, a value only they know, or a genuine either/or choice. Show each command before you run it, in one short line.
5. Detect the current AI tool first. TeamAI behaves differently per host. Note which tool this conversation is running in (Claude Code, Cursor, CodeBuddy, WorkBuddy, ChatGPT App, Codex, OpenCode, Kiro, Gemini CLI, …). When you reopen a session, use the name of this tool — do not assume Claude Code or Cursor. Some hosts need extra manual steps for hooks — see references/troubleshooting.md ("Agent-specific caveats").
6. Prerequisite: Node.js ≥ 20. Install once with npm install -g teamai-cli and verify with teamai --version.
7. Finish with teamai doctor. Every setup/onboarding flow ends by running teamai doctor and resolving whatever it reports before you call it done.
8. After init, resources appear on the NEXT session. teamai init injects a session-start hook that auto-runs teamai pull. It is normal that the skills/ rules directories are empty right after init — they fill in when the user opens a fresh session in this tool. To sync immediately, run teamai pull.
9. Don't limit which AI tools get set up — cover all of them by default. Unless the user explicitly says "only install to Claude Code" (or names specific tools), do not pass --agent to restrict the install. Let teamai init set up every AI tool already installed on the machine (omitting --agent gives an interactive picker; select all detected tools, or the user's stated subset). After init, report which agents were set up — tell the user, in their language, exactly which tools will now auto-start TeamAI (and which detected tools were skipped and why, e.g. Codex trust-gate / CodeBuddy design). Verify the real per-tool result with teamai doctor / teamai hooks list.

Command cheat sheet (ground truth — do not invent flags)

teamai init <full-repo-url>       # Set up / join a team (configure provider, clone, register)
teamai init <url> --scope user    # Install for the whole machine instead of just this project
teamai pull                       # Sync team resources into local AI tools now
teamai push                       # Publish your local skills/rules/docs to the team
teamai doctor                     # Diagnose configuration and hook problems
teamai status                     # Show local vs team differences
teamai list                       # List resources (skills|rules|docs|env|agents|hooks|mcp)
teamai members                    # See team members (subcommand: teamai members list)
teamai roles                      # Manage roles / resource namespaces
teamai projects                   # Manage multiple projects from one repo (list|set|members)
teamai packages                   # Install team-declared npm packages & Claude plugins
teamai env                        # Manage shared team environment variables
teamai dashboard                  # Open the AI coding session dashboard (web UI, default port 3721)
teamai contribute --file <p> --title <t>   # Contribute a knowledge doc (usually via the teamai-share-learnings skill)

Anything not in this cheat sheet: check teamai <command> --help before using it. Do not guess flags (for example, there is no member-invite flag in the CLI — inviting a member is done on the Git platform's website; see references/manage-admin.md).
