description

Frontier-led world-class level-up analysis. Reuses eskill-analyze's engine, then runs a configurable model-fusion panel where a frontier lead such as Fable synthesizes independent reviewers such as Sonnet 5, Codex Medium, Grok, and optional fleet/OpenRouter voices. Use for /esat-frontier, frontier analysis, Fable-led analysis, model-fusion review, or highest-stakes analysis where one lead frontier model should judge, reconcile, and route a configurable council rather than relying on the fixed esat trio.

eSkill: Analyze Frontier — Frontier-Led Fusion Analyzer

esat-frontier = eskill-analyze + a frontier-led configurable fusion panel. It keeps the original analysis engine intact, then replaces the fixed trio stress test with a lead frontier model and a configurable roster of independent reviewers.

Default posture:

• Lead: Fable if the harness exposes it; otherwise the strongest available frontier model.
• Reviewers: Sonnet 5, Codex Medium, Grok, plus optional fleet/OpenRouter voices when configured.
• Synthesis: the lead does not average votes. It verifies claims, reconciles disagreements, and emits one evidence-backed verdict.

Shared routing contract (load first)

Before Phase 9 dispatch, read and obey:

${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../eskill-common/references/model-routing.md

That contract defines semantic role vs requested vs actual route, preference precedence, harness identity, strict pins, disclosed automatic fallback, strongest-restriction policy, metered consent, two-stage manifest, and two-phase deduplication. This skill owns Phase-9 composition only.

Engine — reuse eskill-analyze verbatim

Run the full eskill-analyze protocol for Input Parameters, Triage, Delegation, Framework Selection, Evidence Gathering, and Steps 1-8. Read and follow, in order:

1. ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../eskill-analyze/SKILL.md
2. ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../eskill-analyze/references/triage-guide.md
3. ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../eskill-analyze/references/mental-models.md
4. ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../eskill-analyze/references/analysis-protocol.md — run Phase 0 + Steps 1-8 + Phase P Premortem (when triage activates it). Skip that file's Phase 9.
5. ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../eskill-analyze/references/world-class-signals.md

Frontier overrides

• Phase 9 is mandatory for standard and deep; for quick, run a compact two-voice panel unless the user explicitly asks for no panel.
• Phase 9 uses this skill's fusion panel, not eskill-analyze's single critic and not esat's fixed trio.
• The lead is responsible for judgment, not just summarization. It must verify claims against the item/repo before adopting reviewer output.
• Model labels are portable profiles, not provider IDs. Resolve Fable, Sonnet 5, Codex Medium, and Grok through references/model-profiles.md before dispatching reviewers.
• Preserve the current host model as host; managed reviewer roles resolve independently and must not claim the host was hot-swapped.
• Codex and Grok dispatch independently (peer codex / peer grok). Never use roster-driven peer trio for this tier.
• Exact pins are strict; unavailable routes are reported, not silently substituted. Disclose actual model or account default — never stale fixed version labels.

Phase 9 — Frontier Fusion Panel

After Steps 1-8 and Phase P (when activated) produce the draft analysis, read and execute:

1. ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../eskill-common/references/model-routing.md (if not already loaded)
2. ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/model-profiles.md
3. ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/frontier-panel.md

Configuration

Use environment variables when the harness or shell supports them (legacy environment tier in precedence; explicit invocation and session outrank them):

Variable	Default	Effect
ESAT_FRONTIER_LEAD	fable	Preferred lead profile. Resolve aliases through model-profiles.md; if unavailable, use the strongest available frontier profile and state the fallback.
ESAT_FRONTIER_ROSTER	sonnet-5,codex-medium,grok	Comma-separated reviewer profiles. Resolve aliases through model-profiles.md; unknown or unavailable labels are skipped with a panel note.
ESAT_FRONTIER_FLEET	0	1 adds the fleet OSS swarm leg through fleet-fuse when sensitivity, redaction, permission, budget, and metered consent allow.
ESAT_FRONTIER_SENSITIVITY	medium	high keeps review local/first-party only; medium allows redacted external reviewers; low allows broader low-tier pools; invalid fails closed.
ESAT_FRONTIER_BUDGET_USD	unset	Optional positive numeric cap for external fleet calls. Absent → disclose provider/account cap only. Invalid → fail closed.

Preference precedence (from the shared contract): explicit invocation > session > project > user > legacy environment > harness > portable default.

Output

Use ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../eskill-analyze/assets/output-template.md plus the ### Frontier Fusion Panel block defined in references/frontier-panel.md.

Set the triage header to esat-frontier (frontier fusion) and save output to .omc/plans/esat-frontier-{date}-{focus}.md.

Post-Analysis Routing

Same as eskill-analyze: route confirmed action lists to sprint or overnight execution only after the user confirms the actions.
