Implement Claude Code Agent Teams for continuous improvement (#20)

Rewrites improve.sh to use the experimental Agent Teams feature:
- Lead coordinates in delegate mode (never touches code)
- Teammates work in parallel: Gap Fillers, Agent Scouts, Cloud Scouts
- Shared task list for self-claiming work
- Plan approval required for cloud provider work (lib/common.sh)

CLAUDE.md updated with team role definitions and coordination rules.
.claude/settings.json enables CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS.

Usage:
  ./improve.sh              # one team cycle
  ./improve.sh --loop       # continuous team cycles
  ./improve.sh --single     # old single-agent mode (fallback)

1. Update `manifest.json` matrix status to `"implemented"`
2. Update `README.md` with usage instructions
3. Run `bash test/run.sh` if tests exist for the cloud
3. Run `bash -n {file}` to syntax-check your scripts
4. Commit with a descriptive message
## Agent Team Roles
When running as part of an agent team (`./improve.sh`), teammates are assigned specific roles:
### Gap Filler
You're assigned a specific `{cloud}/{agent}` entry to implement. Steps:
1. Read `{cloud}/lib/common.sh` — understand the cloud's primitives
2. Read an existing `{agent}.sh` on another cloud — understand the install steps
3. Write `{cloud}/{agent}.sh` combining the two
4. Update `manifest.json` matrix entry to `"implemented"`
5. Add usage entry to `README.md` under the cloud's section
6. `bash -n` syntax check
7. Commit your changes only (don't touch other teammates' files)
### Agent Scout
Research and add ONE new AI coding agent. Requirements:
- Must be installable via a single command (`npm install -g`, `pip install`, `curl | bash`, etc.)
- Must accept API keys via environment variables (`OPENAI_API_KEY`, `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`, `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, etc.)
- OpenRouter compatibility: either native `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` support, or `OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://openrouter.ai/api/v1` override
- Add to `manifest.json``agents` with full metadata including `env` field
- Add `"missing"` entries in the matrix for ALL existing clouds
- Implement on at least 2 clouds to prove the pattern
- Update `README.md`
### Cloud Scout
Research and add ONE new cloud provider. Requirements:
- REST API or CLI for provisioning VMs/instances
- SSH access to created servers
- Cloud-init, userdata, or startup-script support
- Pay-per-hour pricing
- Create `{cloud}/lib/common.sh` with ALL primitives (see existing clouds for the pattern)
- Add to `manifest.json``clouds`
- Add `"missing"` entries for ALL existing agents
- Implement at least 2 agents to prove the lib works
- Update `README.md`
### Coordination Rules
- **Never edit the same file as another teammate** — coordinate via the shared task list
- **manifest.json conflicts**: only ONE teammate should update manifest.json at a time. If you're a Gap Filler, update just your entry. If you're a Scout, add your block and your matrix entries.
- **README.md**: append your section, don't rewrite others' sections
- **Commit early**: commit your work as soon as it's done so other teammates can see it
- **Self-claim**: when you finish your assigned task, check the task list for the next unblocked item

# Continuous improvement loop for spawn
# Continuous improvement loop for spawn using Claude Code Agent Teams
#
# Each iteration:
# 1. Reads manifest.json to find gaps
# 2. Launches Claude Code to fill one gap (or discover new agents/clouds)
# 3. Commits the result
# 4. Repeats
# Launches a team lead in delegate mode that coordinates teammates to
# expand the agents x clouds matrix in parallel.
#
# Each cycle the lead:
# 1. Reads manifest.json to find all gaps
# 2. Spawns teammates to fill gaps / discover new agents+clouds in parallel
# 3. Teammates implement, commit, and PR independently
# 4. Lead synthesizes and repeats
#
# Usage:
# ./improve.sh # run one cycle
# ./improve.sh --loop # run continuously until matrix is full
# ./improve.sh --discover # focus on discovering new agents/clouds
# ./improve.sh # one team cycle (fill gaps + discover)
# ./improve.sh --loop # continuous cycles
# ./improve.sh --single # old single-agent mode (no teams)
# ./improve.sh --discover # focus on discovering new agents/clouds only

Read CLAUDE.md and manifest.json to understand the project.
Your task: implement the missing script "$cloud/$agent.sh"
This means creating a spawn script that provisions a $cloud server and installs $agent on it with OpenRouter credentials.
Steps:
1. Read the existing $cloud/lib/common.sh to understand the cloud primitives available
2. Read an existing $agent.sh on another cloud (check sprite/$agent.sh or hetzner/$agent.sh) to understand the agent's install/config steps
3. Write $cloud/$agent.sh combining the two
4. Update manifest.json to mark "$cloud/$agent" as "implemented"
5. Update README.md with usage instructions for this combination
6. Commit the changes
Follow the patterns in CLAUDE.md exactly. OpenRouter environment injection is mandatory.

Read CLAUDE.md and manifest.json to understand the project.
Your task: discover and add ONE new agent or cloud provider to the spawn matrix.
For a new AGENT:
- Search for popular open-source AI coding agents, CLI tools, or dev assistants
- It must be installable via a single command (curl, npm, pip, etc.)
- It must accept API keys via environment variables (so we can inject OpenRouter)
- Add it to manifest.json with full metadata
- Add "missing" matrix entries for all existing clouds
- Implement it on at least one cloud
- Update README.md
For a new CLOUD:
- Look for cloud providers with simple REST APIs or CLIs for server provisioning
- Must support SSH access and cloud-init (or equivalent userdata)
- Must have pay-per-hour or pay-per-minute pricing
- Create the cloud's lib/common.sh with all primitives
- Add it to manifest.json
- Add "missing" matrix entries for all existing agents
- Implement at least one agent on it
- Update README.md
Pick whichever (agent or cloud) you think adds the most value. Commit when done.

You are the lead of a spawn improvement team. Read CLAUDE.md and manifest.json first.

Your job: coordinate teammates to expand the spawn matrix. Use delegate mode — do NOT implement anything yourself. Only coordinate.
## Team Strategy
### If there are gaps (missing matrix entries):
Spawn one teammate per gap (up to 5 at a time). Each teammate implements one {cloud}/{agent}.sh script by:
1. Reading the cloud's lib/common.sh for primitives
2. Reading the agent's script on another cloud for the install pattern
3. Writing the new script
4. Updating manifest.json to mark it "implemented"
5. Updating README.md with usage instructions
6. Committing with a descriptive message
### If the matrix is full:
Spawn 2-3 teammates in parallel:
- **Agent Scout**: research and add ONE new AI coding agent (must accept OPENAI_API_KEY or OPENROUTER_API_KEY env vars for OpenRouter injection). Add it to manifest.json, implement on 1-2 clouds, add "missing" entries for the rest.
- **Cloud Scout**: research and add ONE new cloud provider with REST API or CLI provisioning + SSH access. Create lib/common.sh, add to manifest.json, implement 1-2 agents, add "missing" entries.
- **Gap Filler**: after scouts commit, pick up the newly-created "missing" entries and implement them.
### Always:
- OpenRouter injection is MANDATORY in every script — see manifest.json agent.env fields
- Every script follows the pattern in CLAUDE.md
- Every commit includes the changes to manifest.json + README.md
- Require plan approval from teammates doing cloud provider work (lib/common.sh is critical)
- After all teammates finish, verify manifest.json has no gaps
## Rules for teammates:
- Each teammate works on DIFFERENT files — never two teammates on the same script
- Teammates should commit their own work (don't batch)
- If a teammate finishes early, they should self-claim the next unblocked task
- Use \`bash -n {file}\` to syntax-check before committing
