What problem does it solve?
Consensus helps you make difficult design and architecture decisions when several valid approaches exist and the real trade-offs are unclear. It turns vague debate into a structured comparison of competing options, constraints, and outcomes.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Multi-perspective analysis: Generates three independent viewpoints optimized for different priorities so tensions become visible.
- Decision synthesis: Highlights agreements, disagreements, and the true trade-offs behind each option.
- Practical use cases: Choose between competing refactors, evaluate feature implementation strategies, or decide how to balance simplicity, performance, security, and maintainability.
- Outcome-focused reporting: Produces a clear recommendation, accepted trade-offs, and next steps for follow-up work.
