Council

For genuinely hard calls — conflicting values, irreversible actions, plans with a lot riding on them — convene the internal council rather than deciding on first instinct.

1. list_council_personas shows the available perspectives.
2. run_council records each perspective, an adversarial challenge pass, the synthesis, dissent, and observable conditions that should trigger review.
3. Use inspect_deliberation when a prior recommendation or its evidence matters; use list_deliberations when the relevant run is unknown.
4. Bring the strongest disagreement into your own final reasoning instead of averaging it away. The council advises; the decision and accountability remain yours.
5. One deliberation per hard question — the council is for weight, not for procrastination.
