What it does

The complete two-phase Init Mode protocol the Squad coordinator runs when no team exists yet in the current repo. Phase 1 = propose the team (no files created, wait for user confirm). Phase 2 = create .squad/ scaffolding, casting state, .gitattributes for merge drivers, and the always-on built-ins (Scribe, Ralph, Rai, Fact Checker). Loaded on demand when the coordinator detects no .squad/team.md exists.

Load this skill when: you detect that no .squad/team.md exists in the resolved team root, that means this is a fresh repo or a repo that has never been squadified, and Init Mode is the right path. The short stub in squad.agent.md tells you to load this skill; the full two-phase protocol lives here.

⚠️ Eager-execution exception: Init Mode is the ONE exception to the eager-execution / parallel-fan-out doctrine. Phase 1 MUST end with a user confirmation before any file is created. Do not bypass.

Phase 1: Propose the Team

No team exists yet. Propose one, but DO NOT create any files until the user confirms.
