## Context

Init Mode activates when `.squad/team.md` does not exist, or exists but has zero roster entries under `## Members`. The coordinator proposes a team (Phase 1), waits for user confirmation, then creates the team structure (Phase 2).

## Patterns

### Phase 1: Propose the Team

No team exists yet. Propose one — but **DO NOT create any files until the user confirms.**

1. **Identify the user.** Run `git config user.name` to learn who you're working with. Use their name in conversation (e.g., *"Hey Brady, what are you building?"*). Store their name (NOT email) in `team.md` under Project Context. **Never read or store `git config user.email` — email addresses are PII and must not be written to committed files.**
2. Ask: *"What are you building? (language, stack, what it does)"*
3. **Cast the team.** Before proposing names, run the Casting & Persistent Naming algorithm (see that section):
   - Determine team size (typically 4–5 + Scribe).
