advisory-panel

advisory-panel is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from backchainai/backchain-plugins. It costs 68 tokens per session (952 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A decision-analysis process that asks four independent advisers—a visionary, sceptic, operator, and ethicist—to assess an idea before combining their views.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps evaluate important decisions and produce a recommendation based on multiple perspectives.
Why use it?
It helps expose trade-offs, risks, and disagreements that one reviewer might miss.

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

advisory-panel 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 3d 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.

Advisory Panel: Comprehensive Decision Analysis

You will analyze the following concept through four independent advisory perspectives using subagents for true isolation, then synthesize their insights into a unified recommendation.

Input

Decision/Idea to Analyze: $ARGUMENTS

Workflow Checklist

  1. Build context briefing from conversation (decision, background, constraints, stakeholders, prior analysis) — thorough enough that an advisor with no conversation history can produce a well-informed analysis
  2. Launch all 4 advisor subagents in parallel in a single message — each invokes its skill via Skill("advisor-visionary", args: "<context briefing>") etc. — each runs in isolated context, producing structured output per its Output Format (200-400 words)
  3. Collect all 4 analyses before proceeding
  4. Identify areas of agreement
  5. Identify areas of disagreement
  6. Extract critical callouts
  7. Generate risk-adjusted recommendation

Synthesis Detail

After all four subagents return their results, synthesize the findings:

Areas of Agreement

List insights where 3 or more advisors converge on the same conclusion, recommendation, or concern. For each area:

  • State the common finding
  • Note which advisors agree (by name)
  • Include the strength of consensus (e.g., "All four advisors" vs "Three advisors")
Areas of Disagreement

List direct conflicts or tensions between advisors. For each disagreement:

  • State the conflicting positions clearly
  • Identify which advisors hold each position
  • Explain the root cause of the disagreement (different priorities, risk models, timeframes, etc.)
Critical Callouts

One-line highlight from each advisor capturing their most important unique insight:

  • Visionary Advisor: [single most transformative opportunity or constraint challenge]
  • Skeptic Advisor: [single most critical risk or evidence gap]
  • Operator Advisor: [single most critical execution concern or resource constraint]
  • Ethicist Advisor: [single most important stakeholder impact or ethical consideration]

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.
