# Swarm (Compatibility Facade) Swarm is a compatibility alias for the `/team` skill. All swarm invocations are routed to the Team skill's staged pipeline. ## Usage ``` /swarm N:agent-type "task description" /swarm "task description" ``` ## Behavior This skill is identical to `/team`. Invoke the Team skill with the same arguments: ``` /team <arguments> ``` Follow the Team skill's full documentation for staged pipeline, agent routing, and coordination semantics.
