council-review

council-review is a skill for Claude Code from alinaqi/maggy. It costs 28 tokens per session (766 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review workflow that asks several AI reviewers to check plans, architecture changes, and pull requests before work proceeds. A pull request is a proposed set of code changes awaiting review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to validate saved plans, review changes such as new services or database schemas, and inspect changed files before completing a pull request.
Why use it?
It adds a defined approval step for important decisions and surfaces reviewer disagreements before changes are carried out or completed.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to medium

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • medium Rogue Agent · line 4
    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.
  • medium Excessive Agency · line 59
    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

council-review scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 13d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 77 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Council of Experts — Multi-Model Validation

When to Auto-Trigger

Plans (auto_validate_plans)

When you write a plan to ~/.claude/plans/, automatically validate it:

~/bin/validate-plan --threshold 2 ~/.claude/plans/<plan-file>.md
  • 2+ of 3 approve → execute immediately
  • 1 of 3 → surface reviewer feedback to user before proceeding
  • 0 of 3 → revise plan, re-validate

Architecture Decisions (auto_review_architecture)

When making architectural changes (new services, API redesigns, database schema changes), run:

~/bin/review --all "Review this architecture: <summary>"

PR Review (auto_review_prs)

Before marking a PR as done, run:

~/bin/review --all --file <changed-files>

Configuration

Council behavior is configured in ~/.claude/council.yaml. The Maggy dashboard (Settings > Council) also manages this config.

Chief of the Council

chief: claude-fable-5 — Claude Fable 5 (Anthropic's most capable widely-released model, GA 2026-06-09) leads every panel as the chief: it reviews first and casts the deciding synthesis. Invoked via ~/bin/claude-fable-5. Override the chief in ~/.claude/council.yaml.

Reviewer Contexts

The chief leads each context, followed by the panel:

Context Default Reviewers When
plan Claude Fable 5 (chief), DeepSeek Pro, Codex, Gemini Pro Before executing any plan
review Claude Fable 5 (chief), DeepSeek Pro, Kimi Code review, PR review
architecture Claude Fable 5 (chief), DeepSeek Pro, Gemini Pro, Grok System design, schema changes

Threshold Rules

The threshold setting controls how many approvals are needed:

  • threshold: 2 with 3 reviewers → need 2/3 to auto-execute
  • Clamped to [1, reviewer_count] — can't be 0 or exceed available reviewers

Model Inventory

All 13 tiers are listed in ~/.claude/council.yaml under models:. Each has:

  • id — unique identifier
  • cmd — CLI command to invoke (null for Claude models, which are the host)
  • tier — routing priority (0=cheapest, 12=most capable)
  • label — human-readable name

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
