Overview
Squad is an experimental productivity tool that provides a human-led AI development team powered by GitHub Copilot. Describe the project you want to build, and Squad will assign specialized roles—frontend, backend, testing, and leadership—each represented as files in your repository. These team members persist across multiple sessions, learn from your codebase, share decisions, and help accelerate your project. Squad is not meant to replace engineers or decision-makers but to assist with coordination, repetition, and parallel execution of tasks. Each team member operates within their own context, reads only their own knowledge, and writes learned insights back into the codebase, making work traceable and reviewable.
