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:
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
