feat: add consultancy and data team template archetypes #720

Description

@Aureliolo

Problem

All 7 builtin templates lean software/tech product development. Two common org archetypes are missing that work with existing roles and require no new tooling:

  1. Consultancy -- client-facing advisory/delivery firm. Distinct from agency (which is larger, has creative/marketing). Senior-heavy, project-driven.
  2. Data Team -- data-first organization. Distinct from research_lab (which has a Software Architect lead and broader engineering scope). Analytics and ML focused.

Proposed Templates

Consultancy (4-6 agents)

  • Software Architect (principal, large) -- technical lead
  • Backend Developer x2 (senior, medium) -- delivery
  • Project Manager (senior, medium) -- client-facing delivery
  • Technical Writer (mid, small) -- documentation/proposals
  • Optional: Frontend Developer (mid, small)
  • Departments: consulting (head: Software Architect), operations (head: Project Manager)
  • Autonomy: supervised (client work = oversight)
  • Communication: hierarchical
  • Workflow: kanban
  • Uses client_advisor preset (feat: add personality presets for new template archetypes #721) for PM
  • Budget: ~$60/mo default

Data Team (5-8 agents)

  • Data Engineer (senior, medium) -- pipelines
  • Data Analyst x2 (mid, medium/small) -- analysis
  • ML Engineer (senior, medium) -- models
  • Backend Developer (mid, small) -- infrastructure
  • Technical Writer (mid, small) -- documentation
  • Departments: data_analytics (head: Data Engineer), engineering (head: Backend Developer)
  • Autonomy: full (researchers need freedom)
  • Communication: event_driven
  • Workflow: kanban
  • Uses existing data_driven_optimizer, independent_researcher presets
  • Budget: ~$55/mo default
