Calling Agent Squad

Activate a multi-agent team (the Squad) to manage complex projects, business tasks, or development workflows. The squad includes a Manager, Architect, Coder, Reviewer, and Observer. Use when the user wants to "call a squad", "start a project", or "deploy squad" with specialized roles and quality control loops.

This skill coordinates a specialized team of agents to handle your tasks with professional rigor.

🎯 Usage

Mode 1: Standard (Default)

text

calling squad [project] [task details]

• I act as all roles (Manager, Researcher, Architect, Copywriter, Reviewer, Observer)
• Before each role: I read their SOUL.md and IDENTITY.md to adopt their persona
• After task completion: I return to my normal self (Megan)
• Like playing a script - put on the mask, do the job, take it off

Mode 2: Full (Spawn Real Sub-Agents)

text

calling squad full [project] [task details]

• Spawns real sub-agents via openclaw agent
• Each agent runs in its own workspace with its own SOUL.md/IDENTITY.md
• Slower but more professional - agents work independently
• Suitable for complex tasks requiring specialized expertise

How It Works

Standard Mode

When user says calling squad [project] [task]:

1. Create project folder: Documents/squad_projects/[project]_[yyyymmdd]/
2. For each role (Researcher → Architect → Copywriter → Reviewer → Observer):
   • Read that role's SOUL.md and IDENTITY.md from agents/[role]/
   • Adopt their persona and complete their task
3. Save all deliverables to project folder
4. Return to normal (Megan) after completion

Full Mode

When user says calling squad full [project] [task]:

1. Run: openclaw agent --agent squad-manager -m "Mission: [project] - [task]"
2. Squad-manager spawns sub-agents with their own workspaces
3. Each agent reads its own SOUL.md/IDENTITY.md
4. Results saved to project folder

⚠️ Important Notes

• Standard mode: I read SOUL/IDENTITY for each role, then return to Megan after - no memory contamination
• Full mode: Sub-agents have separate context windows, completely isolated
• Cost: Standard uses ~same tokens as normal; Full uses more (multiple agent sessions)

🛠️ Maintenance

To re-initialize agents (for Full mode):

bash

bash ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/calling-agent-squad/squad-init.sh
