#### `/team-onboarding` — Teammate Ramp-Up Guide

> **New in v2.1.101**

Use `/team-onboarding` to generate a teammate ramp-up guide from your project's local Claude Code usage. The command inspects your `CLAUDE.md`, installed skills, subagents, hooks, and recent workflows, then produces an onboarding document that helps new developers become productive quickly.

It's a built-in command — nothing to install.

**Usage:**

```bash
claude /team-onboarding
```

The generated guide summarizes:

* Project purpose and key conventions from `CLAUDE.md`
* Available skills and when they are auto-invoked
* Configured subagents and their responsibilities
* Hooks that run on common events
* Common workflows newcomers should know about

**Availability:** Shipped in Claude Code v2.1.101 (April 11, 2026).
