AI Product Team – 64 specialized AI agent roles with executable CLI workflows

A GitHub repository called AI Product Team, published by developer 3orionkings, packages 64 specialized AI agent roles, 28 shared methods and 12 workflows for building AI features inside Anthropic's Claude Code and OpenAI's Codex. The package requires Python 3.12 or later and installs only under a project's .claude/, .codex/ and .agents/ directories, recording written files in .aipt/install-manifest.json and refusing to overwrite files it did not create or that the user has edited. Each workflow runs review gates that cannot be skipped and logs every check, decision and evidence item to a ledger in the project, with most requests invoking only a few roles — two for "Summarize this design" and up to eight for "Should we ship this?

64 specialist agents, 28 shared methods and 12 workflows for building AI features inside Claude Code and Codex. Ask a product question in plain language. Your assistant runs only the specialists that question needs, and keeps a record of what every conclusion rests on. <sub The organization at a glance. The orchestrator at the top is the aipt-workflow-orchestrator role, and it runs in your own session. Three directors Product, Engineering and Assurance sit between it and the teams; they are not shown above. Browse every role in the agent directory https://3orionkings.github.io/ai-product-team/directory/ .</sub When you pass a product problem between research, design and coding assistants, things go missing in the handoffs: - the source of a requirement gets lost; - an open question quietly becomes an accepted fact; - "the tests pass" turns out to refer to yesterday's code; - an agent's "done" is taken at its word. This package gives a coding assistant a team that keeps those threads intact. Every role has one job, a method and a defined way it must not fail. Each workflow has review gates that can't be skipped, and every check, decision and piece of evidence is recorded in a ledger in your project. The team is large because the jobs are different. Most requests use very little of it. "Summarize this design" runs two roles. "Should we ship this?" might run eight. You need Python 3.12 or later, and Claude Code, Codex or both. There are no other dependencies. git clone https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team.git cd ai-product-team mkdir -p /tmp/aipt-demo && git -C /tmp/aipt-demo init cp -r examples/support-copilot /tmp/aipt-demo/ python3 install.py --target /tmp/aipt-demo --host claude or --host codex, or --host both Open /tmp/aipt-demo in Claude Code and type: /aipt-shape-feature Turn the documents in support-copilot/corpus into a feature proposal. The demo is a fictional help desk's reply-drafting feature with two built-in traps. An old slide says replies are sent automatically, while the current policy says drafts only. The material also contains a protected workspace-isolation requirement. A good run keeps the conflict visible, writes no requirement that authorizes sending, and leaves the sending decision open for you. examples/support-copilot/scenario.md describes what to look for. In Codex, use $aipt-shape-feature instead. Both hosts can also start from plain language through the aipt-start skill. Remove everything with python3 install.py --target /tmp/aipt-demo --uninstall . python3 install.py --target ~/code/my-app --host claude --dry-run shows what would change python3 install.py --target ~/code/my-app --host claude python3 install.py --target ~/code/my-app --status python3 install.py --target ~/code/my-app --uninstall The installer writes only under .claude/ , .codex/ and .agents/ in that project, and records what it wrote in .aipt/install-manifest.json . It never edits your CLAUDE.md , AGENTS.md , settings or anything global. If a file it would write already exists and it didn't write it, or you have edited one it wrote, it stops and changes nothing. Uninstall removes only files that are still unchanged and keeps any you edited. To check that Claude Code sees the team, type /agents . You should see 64 entries named aipt-… . | You want to… | Claude Code | Codex | |---|---|---| | decide whether AI belongs in a workflow at all | /aipt-assess-opportunity | $aipt-assess-opportunity | | turn documents into a feature proposal with requirements and acceptance checks | /aipt-shape-feature | $aipt-shape-feature | | design how an AI feature should work: components, tools, permissions, failure | /aipt-design-system | $aipt-design-system | | build a bounded version that can be tested | /aipt-build-prototype | $aipt-build-prototype | | evaluate a feature against its real task | /aipt-evaluate-feature | $aipt-evaluate-feature | | find out why a feature is failing | /aipt-investigate-failure | $aipt-investigate-failure | | know whether another model would do better | /aipt-compare-models | $aipt-compare-models | | cut cost or waiting without losing required quality | /aipt-optimize-cost-latency | $aipt-optimize-cost-latency | | know whether a feature is ready for a proposed release | /aipt-review-release | $aipt-review-release | | know what to revisit after something changed | /aipt-process-change | $aipt-process-change | | challenge a proposal and settle a disagreement | /aipt-resolve-decision | $aipt-resolve-decision | | improve a method from verified outcomes | /aipt-learn-from-outcomes | $aipt-learn-from-outcomes | Not sure which one? Use /aipt-start or $aipt-start with your request. The full procedure for each is in workflows/ https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/workflows . You can also call a single specialist for narrow work. In Claude Code, for example, ask for the aipt-claim-checker subagent to check whether a source supports a statement. One dispatcher. Your current session is the only one that starts roles. On Claude Code, no role is given the tool to start another; on Codex, each role is told not to. Directors and managers return plans and verdicts. They never start roles themselves. Selective routing. Before doing any work, the session tells you: - which roles it will run and which it will skip, and why; - what it will write; - what input is missing; - what it will not do. A stage is skipped when a current, accepted artifact already covers it. Review stages are never skipped. A budget mode caps role calls: focused 4, standard 12 the default , deep 24. A case ledger. Every source, claim, requirement, decision, review, check and approval becomes one line in aipt-cases/<case /ledger.jsonl in your project, bound to a content hash. Lines are never edited; a change is a new version. A few rules follow from that: - a test result stays true as history even after the code changes; - a contradiction makes a claim contested , not false; - a protected requirement survives a failed implementation; - an approval covers exactly the version it was given for. Separated authority. - Specialists propose and managers review. - Challengers attack a premise, and must name the test that would settle it. - Judges rule on evidence, never on how many agents agree, and may answer "unresolved". - The Decision Authority role accepts only what you have delegated. - No role deploys, publishes, sends, pays or deletes. Those steps stop and ask you. Evidence over self-report. A check counts only if the session actually ran the command and recorded its exit status. A role saying "tests pass" is recorded as a claim. The rules are instructions the agents follow; in this release nothing enforces them in code. On Claude Code, each role's tool list is enforced by the host: read-only roles get no write or shell tools, and no role can start another. Codex does not support per-role permissions, so there every role runs with your session's permissions. | Team | Director | What it does | Examples | |---|---|---|---| | Discovery and strategy | Product | understand the problem and the opportunity | Context Analyst, Discovery Interviewer, Opportunity Analyst | | Research and evidence | Product | find, check and connect the right information | Source Researcher, Claim Checker, Evidence Linker | | Product and experience | Product | decide what to build and how it should work | Journey Designer, Requirements Writer, Acceptance Designer | | AI systems design | Engineering | design the AI architecture and its boundaries | Workflow Architect, Retrieval Designer, Safety Boundary Designer | | Engineering and integration | Engineering | turn direction into working software | Repository Mapper, Prototype Engineer, Refactoring Engineer | | Evaluation and quality | Engineering | test, measure and understand results | Evaluation Designer, Test Engineer, Failure Analyst | | Operations and economics | Engineering | cost, latency, rollout and real-world outcomes | Cost Analyst, Latency Analyst, Rollout Planner | | Adversarial challenge | Assurance | stress-test ideas and expose blind spots | Assumption Challenger, Alternative Advocate, Red-Team Tester | | Decision and convergence | Assurance | judge the evidence and reach sound decisions | Evidence Judge, Convergence Judge, Decision Authority | | Assurance and improvement | Assurance | audit, secure and keep getting better | Independent Auditor, Security Reviewer, Learning Steward | Every role's job, inputs, outputs, rule and failure case are in the agent directory https://3orionkings.github.io/ai-product-team/directory/ , which is searchable and also works offline from docs/directory/ https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/docs/directory . The full definitions are in agents/ https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/agents , and the shared methods in skills/ https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/skills . v0.1 October 2026 : every definition is written and checked. None has been evaluated on a live model yet. | Part | State | |---|---| | 64 roles, each with a positive and a negative scenario | written; pass the authoring checks | | 28 shared methods | written; 11 adapted from the author's earlier drafts, 17 new | | 12 workflows with entry skills, plus aipt-start | written | | Claude Code files | generated; match the documented format tested ; live discovery not yet recorded | | Codex files | generated from the documentation; never run no working Codex CLI on the build machine | | Installer | tested: dry run, conflicts, symlinks, upgrade, uninstall | | Experimental controller library src/ | partly built; not connected to either host | | Behavior evaluation of roles and workflows | not done | What has not been shown yet: - that the team does better than a single assistant; - that both hosts load and run the files as intended; - that any workflow completes end to end. If you run one, a run report https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/issues/new?template=run report.yml is the most useful contribution you can make. The per-host records are in docs/compatibility/ https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/docs/compatibility . Everything a host loads is generated from four source folders: agents/ , skills/ , workflows/ and entry/ , plus registry/ . To make the team your own: 1. Edit a role or a method. 2. Rebuild with python3 tools/build adapters.py . 3. Reinstall into your project. docs/customizing.md https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/docs/customizing.md covers changing a role, adding a role, method or workflow, using only part of the team, renaming the aipt- prefix and keeping a fork current. The rules for writing roles and methods are in docs/architecture/authoring-contract.md https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/docs/architecture/authoring-contract.md . python3 tools/check authoring.py agents && python3 tools/check authoring.py skills python3 tools/build adapters.py && python3 tools/build directory.py PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -t . Edit the sources, never dist/ ; CI fails when dist/ is stale. See CONTRIBUTING.md https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md . Eleven of the 28 methods adapt the author's own unpublished drafts from early 2026: seven reasoning skills and four delivery runbooks plan, implement, audit, status handoff . Each adapted method keeps its draft's procedure, conditions, output contract and guardrails. Its references/adaptation-notes.md lists what was kept, changed and dropped. The other 17 methods and all 64 role definitions are new. Sources are listed by content hash in registry/sources.public.json https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/registry/sources.public.json . No third-party skill text is included; see THIRD PARTY NOTICES.md https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/THIRD PARTY NOTICES.md . The design package the build followed is in docs/spec/ https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/docs/spec : the product requirements, architecture, agent directory, workflows and implementation plan. src/ai product team/ https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/src/ai product team is a standard-library Python library. It was meant to enforce the ledger rules in code: - immutable versions in SQLite; - impact tracing over declared dependencies; - version-bound approvals; - review-independence checks; - budget admission; - command receipts. Eight modules are implemented and unit-tested. The run controller is incomplete, there is no command-line interface, and nothing connects the library to either host. The agents don't need it. docs/architecture/controller-contracts.md https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/docs/architecture/controller-contracts.md describes the design and marks what exists. agents/ 64 role definitions entry/ the aipt-start entry skill skills/ 28 shared methods registry/ agents, methods, workflows, provenance workflows/ 12 workflow recipes dist/ generated Claude Code and Codex files install.py installer tools/ generators and authoring checks examples/ synthetic support-copilot case evals/ role and workflow scenarios unrun docs/ directory, compatibility, design src/ tests/ experimental library and test suite MIT https://github.com/3orionkings/ai-product-team/blob/main/LICENSE © 2026 Emmanuel Benami.
