council

Run a multi-agent LLM council on the given task and synthesize the results as chairman.

Raw slash-command arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Council composition:

• Claude — correctness reviewer (logic, security, type safety)
• Gemini — edge-cases reviewer (failure modes, alternatives, what was missed)
• Codex — scope reviewer (unnecessary complexity, smallest viable solution)
• Cursor — integration reviewer (codebase fit, dependency implications)
• Kilo — maintainability reviewer (readability, naming, long-term tech debt)

Execution mode:

• Default: foreground (council output needs immediate synthesis).
• If --background is in the arguments, run in background mode.
• If --json is in the arguments, the companion emits {"command":"council","results":[{name,output,error,exitCode}]} on stdout instead of delimited text. Warnings still go to stderr.
• Strip --background, --wait, and --json before passing to the companion.

Pre-flight: The companion automatically checks which agents are installed. Missing agents are reported in stdout with install instructions. The council proceeds with whatever agents are available — at least 2 are required; if fewer are installed the companion exits non-zero and you should tell the user to install more agents.

Foreground execution:

node "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/companion.mjs" council $ARGUMENTS

Background execution:

Bash({
  command: `node "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/companion.mjs" council $ARGUMENTS`,
  description: "LLM council",
  run_in_background: true
})

Tell the user: "Council started in the background. You'll be notified when it completes."

After the companion exits, synthesize as chairman:

The companion output contains one delimited section per available agent (up to five). Read each section and produce a structured synthesis:

## Council Synthesis

**Consensus** (flagged by multiple agents):
- …

**Disagreements:**
- <point>: Claude says X, Gemini says Y — [your adjudication]
- …

## Chairman's Recommendation

<Your own 2–4 sentence recommendation, informed by the council but not just a summary of it.>

Do not skip the synthesis — it is the primary value of this command. Do not paraphrase individual agent outputs beyond what is needed for the synthesis.
