Influence
This fix ensures that the build_customized_multi_agents.py example can run properly without errors. The TeamLeader role is essential for the MetaGPT environment to correctly process and publish messages between agents. Without this role, the environment attempts to access attributes of a None object, causing the application to crash.

After the fix:
The script runs successfully and completes the multi-agent interaction as expected.
Other
This fix highlights the importance of the TeamLeader role in the MetaGPT architecture. The TeamLeader is a core component for coordinating the work of other agents in a multi-agent system. Documentation or examples that create multi-agent teams should emphasize the necessity of including a TeamLeader role.
