How to use the result

Execute commands in order
With operator permissions. One at a time in chat. Commands need order: first /team add, at the end — /team join.
Or use command blocks
One command per block, in a chain: the block understands the command with or without '/'
Add new players
By command /team join admin <username>. The command is stored in the world and survives server restarts.

What to know about prefixes with /team

Marker is visible everywhere. In chat, above heads, and in player list via Tab — anywhere the game prints a player's name.
One command per player. Two prefixes cannot occur at once: /team join Silently transfers player from previous team.
Nickname color — for the team, not the label Prefix color is set by codes &, and the username is colored by team. Without a team color, the username is white.
Record since 1.13. Prefix — text component: before 1.21.5 it was JSON, from 1.21.5 it is SNBT, and SNBT reads both JSON and SNBT. Team command branches are verified against game version 26.3.
Chat plugins are stronger. EssentialsX Chat, LuckPerms and similar draw chat lines differently and team tags in chat may not appear. They will remain above the head and in the Tab.

Colored text in chat will be collected /tellraw generator, the right panel — Display generator. How operator permissions work — in wiki.
