SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Single-perspective answers limit decision quality when facing dilemmas, trade-offs, or complex choices. This Skill simulates a council of distinct thinking archetypes that deliberately disagree, then synthesizes their tensions into actionable insight. ## Core Features & Use Cases - 12 Thinking Archetypes: Selects 4-6 clashing perspectives (Contrarian, Empiricist, Strategist, Ethicist, and more) matched to the question type. - Three-Phase Deliberation: Summons members, runs structured debate with mandatory disagreement, then delivers a synthesis covering convergence, core tension, blind spots, and a recommended path. - Configurable Modes: Supports quick councils, deep deliberations, anonymous mode, devil's advocate mode, multi-round debates, and custom archetypes. - Use Case: Facing a career decision like quitting a stable job to start a company, the council convenes Pragmatist, Futurist, Empath, Contrarian, and Strategist perspectives, then surfaces the real trade-off and a confidence-rated recommendation. ## Quick Start Ask the council to deliberate on a tough decision you are facing, such as whether to accept a job offer or pivot your product strategy.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a multi-perspective deliberation on a decision?

State your question or dilemma and request a council deliberation. The skill selects 4-6 archetypes whose perspectives will productively clash, runs a structured debate, and delivers a synthesis with a recommended path and confidence level.

What thinking archetypes does the council include?

The council offers 12 archetypes including the Architect, Contrarian, Empiricist, Ethicist, Futurist, Pragmatist, Historian, Empath, Outsider, Strategist, Minimalist, and Creator. Each has a distinct reasoning style, signature question, and known blind spot.

Can I customize which council members participate?

Yes. You can request a quick 3-member council, a deep 6-member deliberation, add or exclude specific archetypes, define a fully custom lineup, or create custom archetypes with their own lens, signature question, and blind spot.

When should I not use a council deliberation?

The council adds little value on purely factual questions with clear answers, trivial low-stakes choices, or decisions you have already made and only want validated. For simple cases, a quick two-perspective contrast is more appropriate.

What is devil's advocate mode in council deliberations?

Devil's advocate mode requires every council member to argue against whatever position seems most intuitive. This stress-tests popular assumptions and surfaces risks that a standard deliberation might underweight.
