What's Wrong?
Skills like /simplify or /pr-review-oolkit:review-pr normally spawned always subagents, since newest update it spawns team mates if you have CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS set.
This results that teams are not cleaned up or spawned multiple times (see screenshot)

What Should Happen?
Claude code should only spawn teams if the skill explicit says so, or should better understand the agent teams, clean them up after a tasks finish and don't spawn multiple same teams.
