Recoup — Onboard Roster

Bootstrap a brand-new/empty org: turn a list of artist names into a fully created + enriched roster by fanning recoup-roster-add-artist out across parallel subagents. The empty-org entry point that recoup-platform-build-os hands off to.

Procedure

1. Confirm the roster is actually empty. Via recoup-platform-api-access, roster-discover (GET /accounts/id -> GET /organizations -> GET /artists?org_id=…). If any artists already exist, stop — that's recoup-roster-add-artist (one more) or recoup-platform-build-os (scaffold) territory, not a bootstrap. Never run on a populated roster.
2. Refuse throwaway accounts. If /accounts/id resolves to an agent+…@recoupable.com email, stop and ask for a real-account credential — artists created under a throwaway key get orphaned.
3. Get the roster to create. Either:
   • the user supplies names (or a pasted / CSV list) — use those; or
   • they want A&R help — run recoup-research-find-talent to propose candidates, then confirm the final list with the user before creating anything (creation is a real, billable mutation on the live account).
4. Fan out (parallel subagents). For each confirmed artist, dispatch a subagent that runs recoup-roster-add-artist for that one name (the create -> Spotify -> research -> catalog -> socials -> knowledge-base chain; writes artists/{slug}/RECOUP.md). Run them in parallel, but keep the batch to a sane width (≈5–8 at a time); pass each subagent only its one artist plus the org/auth context. Skip any name already on the roster.
5. Reconcile. When the subagents finish, run recoup-roster-list-artists to verify every intended artist now exists; retry the ones that failed (never fabricate a success).
6. Hand back. Return to recoup-platform-build-os to scaffold / refresh the workspace around the now-populated roster.

Guardrails

• API-first — never mkdir a roster. Each artist is created through recoup-roster-add-artist (which goes through the Recoup API); folders follow from the API result.
• Confirm names before creating. Creating artists costs credits and writes to the live account — no silent bulk-create.
• Idempotent. Skip artists that already exist; safe to re-run after a partial failure.
• One artist per subagent. Keeps each chain resumable and isolates failures.
