What problem does it solve?
The Ethics Council resolves moral uncertainty by systematically stress-testing a decision against multiple ethical traditions and making the underlying value conflicts explicit.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Five-framework ethical analysis: Evaluates outcomes, duties/rights, virtue, care responsibilities, and justice/fairness to avoid single-lens blindness.
- Peer review with value-tension mapping: Cross-checks which framework reasoning is strongest, the biggest blind spots, and where values conflict.
- Chair synthesis and a concrete verdict: Produces a direct recommendation plus what would need to change to make the decision clearly ethical.
- Best-fit use cases: Consent and experimentation questions, HR and layoffs, fairness in algorithms, and vendor or policy choices with stakeholder harm potential.
Quick Start
Run the ethics-council skill with your decision and include the key stakeholders, likely harms/benefits, and any relevant constraints so the council can produce a structured verdict.
