Fastest way to find out if the-pair belongs in your setup.
Copy the install command, run a real test, and back it out cleanly if it slows you down.
git clone https://github.com/timwuhaotian/the-pair ~/.claude/agents/the-pairRun this first. You will know quickly if the workflow earns a permanent slot.
rm -rf ~/.claude/agents/the-pairNo messy cleanup loop. If it misses, remove it and keep moving.
