SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Council reduces manual, fragmented plan reviews by orchestrating multiple AI reviewers via the pi CLI, preserving session state for iterative refinement.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Parallel, multi-model reviews with centralized session state.
  • Selective file inspection via per-review --ref paths and guidance on what to inspect.
  • Decision logging and iterative refinement until consensus is reached.
  • CLI-driven workflow: setup, review, discuss, and session-based iteration.

Quick Start

Install the skill and verify dependencies with council setup. Review a plan file: council review plan.md --prompt "Review this plan for gaps and risks". Continue iterations using a session: council review --session <session-id> plan.md --prompt "<updated review request>".

FAQPage Schema
How do I orchestrate multiple AI models for plan review and consensus?

You can orchestrate multiple AI models for plan review by running parallel review sessions via pi, using centralized session state to track iterative critique until consensus is reached. This coordinates architecture decisions and risk assessments through per-agent prompts.

What is the best way to conduct an iterative risk assessment using AI agents?

The best way to conduct an iterative risk assessment with AI agents is using a session-based workflow that coordinates parallel reviewers. This approach enforces deterministic iterations via a structured decision log, allowing continuous refinement until consensus is achieved.

Can I inspect specific files during a multi-model AI review session?

Yes, you can inspect specific files during a multi-model review by passing per-review --ref paths and providing guidance on what to inspect. This selective file inspection allows targeted architecture decisions and quality audits.

How do I start a session-based plan review with pi CLI?

To start a session-based plan review, run council setup to verify dependencies, then execute council review plan.md --prompt "Review this plan for gaps and risks". Continue iterations using council review --session <session-id>.

Does multi-model plan review require a structured decision log?

Yes, multi-model plan review requires a structured decision log to enforce deterministic iterations during the session-based workflow. This log preserves session state and tracks iterative critique across parallel AI reviewers.

When should I avoid using parallel AI reviewers for architecture decisions?

You should avoid using parallel AI reviewers when manual, fragmented plan reviews are sufficient or when session-based iterative refinement is unnecessary. The approach is designed for complex architecture decisions, risk assessments, and quality audits requiring multi-model consensus.
