llm-council: Skill for Claude Code

.github/skills/council-verify/SKILL.md

council-verify is a skill for Claude Code from amiable-dev/llm-council. It costs 60 tokens per session (1,142 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A verification workflow that checks code, documents, or implementations against stated requirements using several AI reviewers. It returns a structured verdict about correctness, completeness, or quality.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to validate code changes, documents, and implementations, especially when you want consensus or a focused check for security, performance, or accessibility.
Why use it?
It adds an independent pass/fail-style check before work is committed or accepted, with the reviewed version pinned for repeatability.

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-verify 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 9d 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.

Council Verification Skill

Use LLM Council's multi-model deliberation to verify work with structured, machine-actionable verdicts.

When to Use

  • Verify code changes before committing
  • Validate implementation against requirements
  • Check documents for accuracy and completeness
  • Get multi-model consensus on quality

Workflow

  1. Snapshot: pin the git commit SHA (reproducibility)
  2. Verify: call mcp:llm-council/verify (isolated context)
  3. Act on the verdict (structured JSON below)
  4. Audit: transcript via mcp:llm-council/audit

Parameters

Parameter Type Default Description
snapshot_id string required Git commit SHA for reproducibility
rubric_focus string null Focus area: "Security", "Performance", "Accessibility"
confidence_threshold float 0.7 Minimum confidence for PASS verdict
tier string "balanced" Confidence tier: "quick", "balanced", "high", "reasoning"

Tier Selection Guide

Tier Use When Timeout Max Input
quick Fast sanity checks, small diffs ~30s 15K chars
balanced Default. Routine verification ~90s 30K chars
high Security-critical reviews only ~180s 50K chars
reasoning Complex architectural decisions ~600s 50K chars

Important: high/reasoning use slow frontier models. For large diffs (>20K chars), prefer balanced to avoid timeouts.

Evidence (ADR-042)

Pass pre-computed analysis from upstream tools (linters, slop detectors) via evidence: List[EvidenceItem]. Council emits evidence_summary and evidence_warnings in the response. See references/evidence.md for fields, limits, example.

Changes

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.
