# Council
Four-voice structured disagreement for ambiguous decisions and go/no-go calls.
## Usage
```
/council <decision question>
/council <decision question> --round2 # follow-up round, prior verdict optional context
```
## Behavior
### 1. Extract the real question
State explicitly: what is being decided, what constraints matter, what counts as
success. If the question is vague, ask one clarifying question before proceeding.
### 2. Gather minimal context
Collect only the snippets, metrics, or constraints needed to judge the decision.
Skip repo detail for strategic/general questions unless it changes the answer.
### 3. Form an initial position
Before consulting other voices, write down a starting position, its three
strongest reasons, and its main risk. This prevents the synthesis from simply
mirroring whichever voice speaks last.
### 4. Launch three independent voices
Spawn each as a fresh subagent with only the question and the compact context
from step 2 — never the full conversation history. This is the anti-anchoring
mechanism: a voice that inherits the discussion tends to agree with it.
Apply tiered model delegation: Skeptic and Pragmatist can run on a cheaper
model (Haiku-class); reserve the stronger model for Critic or for synthesis
if the decision is high-stakes.
Prompt shape per voice:
