Team Health Check Skill

This skill produces a structured team health assessment inspired by Spotify's health check model and extended with engineering, product, and cross-functional team dimensions. Output can be used as a facilitation guide for a live session or as an async survey-and-report format.

Required Inputs

Ask the user for these if not provided:

• Team name and function (engineering squad, product team, sales pod, etc.)
• Team size and composition (how many people, what roles)
• Format — facilitated live session or async survey + report?
• Context — why are you running this now? (new team / ongoing ritual / post-incident / low morale signal)
• Any known issues — anything the facilitator knows going in that will colour the results?

• This is not a performance review — there are no wrong answers
• We're assessing the team, not individuals — speak about "we" not "they"
