// Create AI providers
const openaiProvider = new OpenAIProvider({ apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY });
const anthropicProvider = new AnthropicProvider({ apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY });

// Create team with template-based expert selection
const team = createTeam({
  aiProviders: [openaiProvider, anthropicProvider]
});

// Execute complex task - automatic expert delegation

## API Reference

### TeamContainer

Main class for managing multi-agent teams.

```typescript
class TeamContainer {
  constructor(config: TeamConfig)
  
  // Workflow execution
  execute(input: string): Promise<string>
  
  // Team management
  addAgent(name: string, agent: AgentInterface): void
  removeAgent(name: string): void
  getAgent(name: string): AgentInterface | undefined
  
  // Analytics
  getStats(): TeamStats
}
```

### Team Configuration

```typescript
interface TeamConfig {
  name: string;
  agents: Record<string, AgentInterface>;
  workflow?: {
    description: string;
    steps: WorkflowStep[];
  };
  options?: {
    maxConcurrent?: number;
    timeout?: number;
    retryPolicy?: RetryPolicy;
  };
}
```

### Workflow System

```typescript
interface WorkflowStep {
  agent: string;
  task: string;
  dependsOn?: string[];
  condition?: (context: WorkflowContext) => boolean;
  timeout?: number;
}

interface WorkflowResult {
  success: boolean;
  results: Record<string, string>;
  metadata: {
    totalTime: number;
    agentsUsed: string[];
    stepResults: StepResult[];
  };
}
```

### Integration Points

- **Agent System**: Works with any agent implementing AgentInterface
- **Plugin System**: Inherits all agent plugin capabilities
- **Analytics**: Aggregates metrics from all team members
- **Error Handling**: Unified error management across team operations

## Workflow Patterns

### Sequential Workflow
Agents execute tasks in a defined order:

```typescript
const team = createTeam({
  name: 'Sequential Team',
  workflow: {
    steps: [
      { agent: 'researcher', task: 'Gather information' },
      { agent: 'analyst', task: 'Analyze data' },
      { agent: 'reporter', task: 'Generate report' }
    ]
  }
});
```

### Parallel Workflow
Agents execute tasks concurrently:

```typescript
const team = createTeam({
  name: 'Parallel Team',
  workflow: {
    steps: [
      { agent: 'agent1', task: 'Task A' },
      { agent: 'agent2', task: 'Task B' },
      { agent: 'agent3', task: 'Task C' }
    ]
  },
  options: { maxConcurrent: 3 }
});
```

### Conditional Workflow
Agents execute based on conditions:

```typescript
const team = createTeam({
  name: 'Conditional Team',
  workflow: {
    steps: [
      { agent: 'classifier', task: 'Classify input' },
      { 
        agent: 'specialist1', 
        task: 'Handle type A',
        condition: (ctx) => ctx.classification === 'typeA'
      },
      { 
        agent: 'specialist2', 
        task: 'Handle type B',
        condition: (ctx) => ctx.classification === 'typeB'
      }
    ]
  }
});
```
