Agent Council

When to use this skill

Use Agent Council when an AI agent needs a reusable SKILL.md workflow for this job: Collect and synthesize opinions from multiple AI agents. Use when users say "summon the council", "ask other AIs", or want multiple AI perspectives on a question.

When not to use it

Skip Agent Council when the task is outside the creativity category, or when a more specific skill in this directory already covers the same workflow with clearer triggers.

How to install

1. Personal install: create ~/.claude/skills/agent-council/SKILL.md (and any bundled scripts) so Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and compatible agents can load it in every project.
2. Project install: commit the same folder at .claude/skills/agent-council/ so teammates get the skill with the repo.
3. Restart the agent session after copying files so it re-scans the skills directory, then ask for the task in words that match the skill description.
