LLM Council (with Installer)
LLM Council — ask one question to many models, let them critique each other, get a synthesized chairman answer.
This skill is the fastest way to run it: one command installs dependencies, configures credentials, and launches both backend and frontend. No manual setup, no API key prompts.
OpenClaw-native: Credentials resolve automatically from OpenClaw config or workspace .env. Falls back to the local OpenClaw gateway (port 18789) if no OpenRouter key is found.
Two Ways to Use LLM Council
| Mode | Best For | Command |
|---|
| Quick answer | Fast decisions, mobile, casual questions | /council "Your question" (requires ask-council skill) |
| Full discussion | Deep research, exploring disagreements, seeing all model responses | /install-llm-council then open browser at :5173 |
Slash Command
/install-llm-council [--mode dev|preview] [--dir PATH]
When the user says /install-llm-council, run:
bash ~/.openclaw/skills/install-llm-council/install.sh
The script will:
- Resolve credentials — env var → workspace
.env → OpenClaw local gateway (no prompt ever)
- Clone or pull
https://github.com/jeadland/llm-council to ~/workspace/llm-council
uv sync — Python backend dependencies
npm ci — frontend dependencies
- Write
.env — API key/URL for OpenRouter direct or OpenClaw gateway mode
- Start backend — FastAPI on
:8001 (background)
- Start frontend — Vite dev on
:5173 (background)
- Print access URL —
http://<pi-ip>:5173
Flags
| Flag | Default | Description |
|---|
--mode dev | dev | Run Vite dev server (hot reload, port 5173) |
--mode preview | — | Build + run Vite preview (port 4173) |
--dir PATH | ~/workspace/llm-council | Override clone directory |
Credential Resolution (OpenClaw-native)
The installer never prompts for API keys. It resolves credentials in this order:
- Environment —
OPENROUTER_API_KEY already exported
- Workspace
.env — ~/.openclaw/workspace/.env contains OPENROUTER_API_KEY=...
- OpenClaw gateway — reads
~/.openclaw/openclaw.json → gateway.auth.token + gateway.port
- Sets
OPENROUTER_API_URL=http://127.0.0.1:<port>/v1/chat/completions in .env
- Uses the gateway token as the bearer key (OpenAI-compatible endpoint)
Ports
| Service | Port | Notes |
