SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Designing software and systems often relies on a single perspective or informal feedback. The review-council skill provides a structured, multi-persona advisory council that can critique architecture and design decisions, debate tradeoffs, and converge on a verdict with human input.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-based governance: loads a limited set of expert personas and orchestrates a scope-driven review.
  • Independent personas: each persona analyzes different aspects (security, UX, data, cost, reliability) and presents findings.
  • Human-in-the-loop verdicts: council outputs are compressed, debated, and reconciled before a final decision.
  • Scope management: adapts to simple to complex design challenges with governance controls.

Quick Start

Initiate a /design-review session with a clearly scoped problem to load the selected personas.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a multi-persona design review for architecture decisions?

You can run a multi-persona design review by initiating a scoped session that loads expert personas to independently analyze architecture proposals, debate tradeoffs, and reconcile findings into a final verdict.

What is a multi-persona advisory council for software architecture?

A multi-persona advisory council is a structured review mechanism where independent expert personas critique architecture and design decisions, debate tradeoffs, and reconcile findings into a final verdict.

Can I use expert personas to critique codebase and architecture diagrams?

Yes, expert personas can critique codebases and architecture diagrams by applying phase-structured analysis to scope-driven design proposals, enabling independent reviews of security, UX, data, cost, and reliability.

How do I get a human-in-the-loop verdict for design proposals?

To get a human-in-the-loop verdict, the advisory council compresses and debates its independent persona findings, requiring human confirmation to reconcile tradeoffs and finalize the design decision.

Are there limitations to using independent personas for design review?

Limitations include the need for disciplined persona loading and phase-structured analysis, meaning complex design challenges require strict scope management and governance controls to avoid unresolved blockers and open questions.
