SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Council skill provides a structured, multi-perspective decision-making workflow that surfaces gaps and risks in consequential plans. It orchestrates a seven-turn process with five MECE roles and a chairman synthesis to guide a well-reasoned verdict.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Live, turn-gated deliberation with five MECE roles (Cartographer, Analyst, Adversary, Scout, Operator) and a synthesis verdict
  • Grounding-first approach with Hersteller, Community, and Divergence to align on sources of truth
  • Explicit cross-role engagement and a flexible verdict that scales to question complexity
  • Persistent, auditable decision trace (including directory COUNCIL.md)

Quick Start

Initiate a seven-turn Council run: grounding, five roles, and a Verdict.

FAQPage Schema
What is structured multi-perspective decision-making and when do I need it for complex governance?

Structured multi-perspective decision-making orchestrates rigorous judgment by running a seven-turn council workflow with five MECE roles and a synthesis verdict. You need it for complex governance, product strategy, risk assessment, and policy problems requiring explicit critique and grounding.

How do I run a structured deliberation workflow with five distinct roles?

Initiate a seven-turn council run starting with grounding, followed by five MECE roles—Cartographer, Analyst, Adversary, Scout, and Operator—and concluding with a synthesis verdict. Each turn is labeled T1 through T7 with steering vocabulary and cross-role engagement.

Can I use a formal council workflow for risk assessment and product strategy decisions?

Yes, the council workflow targets complex decision problems in risk assessment, product strategy, governance, and policy. It scales to question complexity through a flexible verdict and produces a concrete action plan with persistent, auditable decision traces.

What is the best way to document and audit multi-role deliberation outcomes?

The council workflow persists an auditable decision trace including a directory COUNCIL.md, capturing grounding blocks, labeled T1–T7 turns, cross-role engagement, and the final synthesis verdict with its concrete action plan for later review.

Are there limitations to using a seven-turn council workflow for simple decisions?

The seven-turn council with five MECE roles and grounding blocks is designed for complex, consequential plans requiring structured critique. For simple decisions, this formal deliberation overhead may exceed the problem's needs without proportional benefit.
