SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the problem of cognitive bias and blind spots in critical decision-making by orchestrating a diverse, adversarial panel of AI personas to stress-test your proposals.

Core Features & Use Cases

Adversarial Evaluation: Uses a multi-persona panel (Falsifier, Minimalist, Pragmatist, etc.) to identify flaws, risks, and simplifications you might have missed.
Structured Synthesis: Produces a final recommendation that includes a mandatory dissent block, ensuring you see the arguments the chair chose not to adopt.
Use Case: Use this before finalizing architectural changes, PR reviews, or high-impact product directions to ensure your strategy is robust against diverse evaluative lenses.

Quick Start

Invoke the council skill to evaluate the proposed architectural change for the billing module by providing the task description as an argument.

FAQPage Schema

How do I get an adversarial code review for architectural trade-offs?▼

To get an adversarial code review for architectural trade-offs, you can use an orchestration tool that assembles a multi-persona panel to stress-test proposals and identify cognitive bias. This process applies diverse evaluative lenses to your design to surface hidden risks.

What is the best way to reduce cognitive bias in high-stakes architectural decisions?▼

Reducing cognitive bias in high-stakes architectural decisions requires an anonymized peer-ranking mechanism where multiple diverse personas evaluate your proposal. This structured synthesis forces a mandatory dissent block so you can see rejected arguments and blind spots.

Can I use a multi-persona panel to review my PR and provide dissenting opinions?▼

Yes, you can use a multi-persona panel to review your PR by running parallel evaluations with personas like Falsifier, Minimalist, and Pragmatist. The final chair synthesis provides a structured recommendation that includes mandatory dissenting opinions.

Does the council skill require the Workflow tool for parallel evaluation?▼

Yes, the council skill requires the built-in Workflow tool to manage parallel evaluation, anonymized peer-ranking, and final chair synthesis. This dependency is necessary to orchestrate the multi-persona panel and generate structured recommendations.

When do I need an adversarial panel for strategic planning?▼

You need an adversarial panel for strategic planning when finalizing high-impact product directions or architectural changes where cognitive bias poses a significant risk. It synthesizes diverse perspectives to ensure your strategy is robust against various evaluative lenses.

How does a blind multi-persona panel synthesize architectural feedback?▼

A blind multi-persona panel synthesizes architectural feedback by running parallel evaluations from distinct personas like Pragmatist and Falsifier, followed by anonymized peer-ranking. The chair then produces a final recommendation with a mandatory dissent block.
