Council Decision Skill
Get multi-model AI consensus on complex decisions using the agent-council's 3-stage voting pipeline.
When to Use
Automatically invoke this skill when facing:
- •Architectural design decisions that affect system structure
- •Technology stack choices with multiple valid options
- •Implementation approach evaluation for complex features
- •Design pattern selection when trade-offs are unclear
- •Multi-step planning for large tasks
How It Works
The skill runs the agent-council CLI which:
- •Sends your question to Claude, Codex, and Gemini
- •Each model provides an independent response
- •Models peer-rank each other's answers
- •A chairman synthesizes the final recommendation
Usage
When you encounter a complex decision point:
- •Formulate the question clearly
- •Run:
agent-council "your question here" - •Wait for the 3-stage pipeline to complete
- •Use the synthesized answer to guide implementation
Example Questions
- •"What's the best way to implement real-time updates: WebSockets, SSE, or polling?"
- •"Should this service use SQL or NoSQL database?"
- •"What caching strategy would work best for this API?"
- •"How should we structure error handling in this module?"
Prerequisites
The agent-council CLI must be installed:
bash
npm install -g agent-council
Benefits
- •Reduced bias: Multiple AI models reduce single-model bias
- •Diverse perspectives: Different models have different strengths
- •Quality ranking: Peer evaluation identifies best answers
- •Synthesized wisdom: Chairman combines best insights
