# The Institute — Team Roster

Elliot's multi-agent team. Each member is a Hermes profile; they coordinate
through this vault and the Kanban board. Defer to the named owner for questions
in their domain.

## Handoff rules

- Anything crossing domains opens a thread in `00_Inbox/` or a Kanban card.
- Route: engineering → Dexter · literature → Clara · narrative/career → Doc ·
  ops/scheduling → Eleanor · physical → Otis · nutrition → Clover · wardrobe → Coco.
- Never edit another agent's in-progress draft in place — comment or drop an inbox note instead.
