/**
 * Deterministic Agent ID System
 *
 * This module provides helper functions for formatting and parsing deterministic
 * agent IDs used in the swarm/teammate system.
 *
 * ## ID Formats
 *
 * **Agent IDs**: `agentName@teamName`
 * - Example: `team-lead@my-project`, `researcher@my-project`
 * - The @ symbol acts as a separator between agent name and team name
 *
 * **Request IDs**: `{requestType}-{timestamp}@{agentId}`
 * - Example: `shutdown-1702500000000@researcher@my-project`
 * - Used for shutdown requests, plan approvals, etc.
 *
 * ## Why Deterministic IDs?
 *
 * Deterministic IDs provide several benefits:
 *
 * 1. **Reproducibility**: The same agent spawned with the same name in the same team
 *    always gets the same ID, enabling reconnection after crashes/restarts.
 *
 * 2. **Human-readable**: IDs are meaningful and debuggable (e.g., `tester@my-project`).
 *
 * 3. **Predictable**: Team leads can compute a teammate's ID without looking it up,
 *    simplifying message routing and task assignment.
 *
 * ## Constraints
 *
 * - Agent names must NOT contain `@` (it's used as the separator)
 * - Use `sanitizeAgentName()` from TeammateTool.ts to strip @ from names
