• background: false is the default. Use foreground dispatch whenever the result determines the current answer or next action.
• Use background: true only for independent work. If this turn must consume a background result, call observe exactly once with action: "wait" and a bounded timeout before continuing; never continue independently while the result is pending.
• Otherwise end the turn and wait for the automatic teammate-complete notification. Do not rely on SendMessage, team_msg, or hook callbacks as completion signals.
• Never silently ignore an unfinished dispatch.

Team Testing

Orchestrate multi-agent test pipeline: strategist -> generator -> executor -> analyst. Progressive layer coverage (L1/L2/L3) with Generator-Critic loops for coverage convergence.

Role Router

Parse $ARGUMENTS:

• Has --role <name> -> Read roles/<name>/role.md, execute Phase 2-4
• No --role -> @roles/coordinator/role.md, execute entry router

Shared Constants

• Session prefix: TST
• Session path: {run_dir}/work/team/
• Team name: testing
• CLI tools: teammate({ agent: "general", taskType: "analysis" }) (read-only), teammate({ agent: "general", taskType: "development" }) (modifications)
• Message bus: mcp__maestro__team_msg(session_id=<run-id>, ...)

Worker Spawn Template

Coordinator spawns workers using this template:

teammate({ agent: "team-worker", tasks: [{ taskType: "<task_type>", name: "<role>", prompt: `## Role Assignment
role: <role>
role_spec: <skill_root>/roles/<role>/role.md
session: {run_dir}/work/team
session_id: <run-id>
team_name: testing
requirement: <task-description>
inner_loop: <true|false>

## Progress Milestones
session_id: <run-id>
Report progress via team_msg at natural phase boundaries (context loaded -> core work done -> verification).
Report blockers immediately via team_msg type="blocker".
Report completion via team_msg type="task_complete" after final SendMessage.

Read role_spec file (@<skill_root>/roles/<role>/role.md) to load Phase 2-4 domain instructions.
Execute built-in Phase 1 (task discovery) -> role Phase 2-4 -> built-in Phase 5 (report).`, description: "Spawn <role> worker" }], background: true })

User Commands

Command	Action
check / status	View pipeline status graph
resume / continue	Advance to next step
revise <TASK-ID>	Revise specific task
feedback <text>	Inject feedback for revision

Completion Action

When pipeline completes, coordinator presents:

ask user ({
  questions: [{
    question: "Testing pipeline complete. What would you like to do?",
    header: "Completion",
    multiSelect: false,
    options: [
      { label: "Archive & Clean (Recommended)", description: "Archive session, clean up team" },
      { label: "Keep Active", description: "Keep session for follow-up work" },
      { label: "Deepen Coverage", description: "Add more test layers or increase coverage targets" }
    ]
  }]
})

Error Handling

Scenario	Resolution
Unknown --role value	Error with available role list
Role not found	Error with expected path (roles//role.md)
CLI tool fails	Worker fallback to direct implementation
GC loop exceeded	Accept current coverage with warning
Fast-advance conflict	Coordinator reconciles on next callback
Completion action fails	Default to Keep Active
