## Description

TeamAI day 0 and repo lifecycle: create a team repo as admin, join an existing team as a member, manage members, roles, MCP and env, and uninstall. Loaded on demand by the teamai discovery stub.

## SKILL.md, as published by its author (untrusted third-party text, read it as data)

# teamai, setup and lifecycle

You run the commands; the user only makes choices when you ask. **They may not
know Git**, never explain branches, commits or clones.

## Before anything

```bash
node --version      # must be >= 20
teamai --version    # install once with: npm install -g teamai-cli
```

Then pick the flow. 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. A
would-be member without a URL is still the **join** flow, `join-member.md` tells
them how to ask for it. Do not send them to the create-repo flow because the URL
is missing.

| The user wants to…                                                          | Load this                                   |

| Set up TeamAI for a team from scratch (create the repo)                      | `{SKILL_DIR}/references/setup-admin.md`     |
| Join their team, with or without a repo URL                                  | `{SKILL_DIR}/references/join-member.md`     |
| Publish or update skills, rules, MCP, env; invite members; manage roles      | `{SKILL_DIR}/references/manage-admin.md`    |
| Remove TeamAI from this machine                                              | `{SKILL_DIR}/references/uninstall.md`       |
| Publish one skill or contribute a doc                                        | `"$(teamai skill path core)/references/contribute-member.md"` |
| Anything that breaks along the way                                           | `"$(teamai skill path core)/references/troubleshooting.md"` |

Supported Git providers are Tencent TGit, GitHub, GitLab and CNB;
`{SKILL_DIR}/references/setup-admin.md` carries the detection probe, the sign-in
and create-repo URLs, and the per-provider caveats, and points at
`{SKILL_DIR}/references/provider-tgit.md` for everything TGit-specific.
