What problem does it solve? Getting a well-grounded answer to a complex question often requires multiple perspectives and current evidence, but a single model response can be one-sided or stale. This Skill convenes a fixed three-agent General Council (generalist, skeptic, domain expert) that researches the web first, deliberates in parallel, reconciles disagreements, and returns a synthesized advisory answer. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Curated Research Phase: Runs targeted web_search queries with freshness and temporal-intent metadata before any agent is dispatched, blocking ungrounded answers for time-sensitive questions. - Parallel Multi-Agent Deliberation: Dispatches generalist, skeptic, and domain expert lanes asynchronously, then routes disagreements back for one targeted reconciliation round. - Consensus-First Synthesis: Produces a final answer that leads with consensus, honestly presents persisting disagreements, and cites the strongest sources. - Use Case: Ask "/swarm council Should we adopt post-quantum ML-DSA signatures now?" and receive an evidence-cited advisory answer reflecting three independent expert viewpoints. ## Quick Start Invoke the council by typing /swarm council followed by your question, optionally adding a preset or the spec-review flag.
