SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? High-stakes decisions and analyses often suffer from single-perspective blind spots. This Skill routes the /council command to a structured multi-specialist review procedure that stress-tests conclusions before they are acted on. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Specialist Review: Subjects an analysis or decision to scrutiny from relevant specialist perspectives. - Debate and Scenarios: Runs structured debate and scenario exploration to surface risks and counterarguments. - Reconciliation: Consolidates conflicting viewpoints into a reconciled outcome following a defined Definition of Done. - Use Case: Before committing to a major architecture migration, run the council procedure to have specialists challenge the plan, debate failure scenarios, and reconcile a final recommendation. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to run the council procedure on your current analysis or high-risk decision to get specialist reviews and a reconciled outcome.

FAQPage Schema

How do I run a multi-perspective review of a decision?▼

Invoke the /council command with your analysis or decision as input. The Skill routes to the council procedure, which applies specialist reviews, debate, and scenario exploration, then reconciles the findings into a final outcome.

What is the council procedure for decision review?▼

The council procedure is a structured workflow defined in a separate SKILL.md file that this command routes to. It coordinates specialist reviews, debate, scenarios, and reconciliation according to a defined Definition of Done.

When should I use a council-style review instead of a single review?▼

Use it for high-risk or high-impact decisions where a single perspective may miss critical failure modes. For routine low-stakes choices, the overhead of multi-specialist debate and reconciliation is usually unnecessary.

Does the council skill work standalone?▼

No. This Skill is a routing layer that depends on the council procedure defined at .agents/skills/strategy/council/SKILL.md. That file must exist and be readable for the procedure to execute.
