Base	Lens	Knowledge	Best for
Template	6 personality-based prompts	LLM parametric only	General ideation, brainstorming, multi-angle commentary
Grounded	6 personalities + retrieval	Pinecone + Tavily + LLM	Factual questions, research-backed deliberations, current events
Decide	Formal decision frameworks	LLM parametric	"Should I do X?" decisions with options and stakes
Bespoke	Custom roles	Configurable	Domain-specific councils (medical triage, architecture review, etc.)

Full comparison in ../new-llm-council/references/templates.md. Full Decide framework catalogue in ../new-llm-council/references/frameworks.md.
