Council Verification Skill

Use LLM Council's multi-model deliberation to verify work with structured, machine-actionable verdicts.

When to Use

• Verify code changes before committing
• Validate implementation against requirements
• Check documents for accuracy and completeness
• Get multi-model consensus on quality

Workflow

1. Capture Snapshot: Capture current git diff or file state (snapshot pinning for reproducibility)
2. Invoke Verification: Call mcp:llm-council/verify with isolated context
3. Receive Verdict: Get structured JSON with verdict, confidence, and blocking issues
4. Audit Trail: Persist transcript via mcp:llm-council/audit

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
rubric_focus	string	null	Focus area: "Security", "Performance", "Accessibility"
confidence_threshold	float	0.7	Minimum confidence for PASS verdict
snapshot_id	string	required	Git commit SHA for reproducibility

Output Schema

{
  "verdict": "pass|fail|unclear",
  "confidence": 0.85,
  "rubric_scores": {
    "accuracy": 8.5,
    "completeness": 7.0,
    "clarity": 9.0,
    "conciseness": 8.0
  },
  "blocking_issues": [...],
  "rationale": "Chairman synthesis...",
  "transcript_location": ".council/logs/..."
}

Exit Codes (for CI/CD)

• 0: PASS - Approved with confidence >= threshold
• 1: FAIL - Rejected
• 2: UNCLEAR - Confidence below threshold, requires human review

Example Usage

# Verify current changes
council-verify --snapshot $(git rev-parse HEAD) --rubric-focus Security

# Verify specific files
council-verify --target-paths "src/auth.py,src/api.py" --snapshot abc123
