multi-model-validation

multi-model-validation is a skill for Claude Code from MadAppGang/magus. It costs 47 tokens per session (21,345 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A workflow that sends the same task to several AI models at once and combines their judgments. It is intended for second opinions and agreement across models such as Grok, Gemini, GPT-5, or Kimi.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to validate code, designs, or implementations, compare multiple expert opinions, identify shared concerns, and prioritize findings by agreement.
Why use it?
Different models may notice different problems, so comparing their answers can reveal issues a single review might miss.

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 B, and why

multi-model-validation scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 20d 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.

Multi-Model Validation

Version: 3.3.0 Purpose: Patterns for running multiple AI models in parallel via Claudish proxy with context-aware preferences, dynamic model discovery, session-based workspaces, and performance statistics Status: Production Ready

Overview

Multi-model validation is the practice of running multiple AI models (Grok, Gemini, GPT, DeepSeek, etc.) in parallel to validate code, designs, or implementations from different perspectives. This achieves:

  • 3-5x speedup via parallel execution (15 minutes → 5 minutes)
  • Consensus-based prioritization (issues flagged by all models are CRITICAL)
  • Diverse perspectives (different models catch different issues)
  • Cost transparency (know before you spend)
  • Free model discovery (NEW v3.0) - find high-quality free models from trusted providers
  • Performance tracking - identify slow/failing models for future exclusion
  • Data-driven recommendations - optimize model shortlist based on historical performance

Key Innovations:

  1. Context-Aware Preferences (NEW v3.3.0) - Automatically use saved model preferences per task type (debug/research/coding/review) from .claude/multimodel-team.json
  2. Dynamic Model Discovery (v3.0) - Read the live catalog (list_models) for current available models (live, 24h cache)
  3. Session-Based Workspaces (v3.0) - Each validation session gets a unique directory to prevent conflicts
  4. 4-Message Pattern - Ensures true parallel execution by using only Agent tool calls in a single message
  5. Pattern 7-8 - Statistics collection and data-driven model recommendations

This skill is extracted from the /review command and generalized for use in any multi-model workflow.


⚠️ MANDATORY: Learn and Reuse User Preferences

Model preferences are learned per context and reused automatically.

  • First time a context is used → ASK user → SAVE to that context
  • Next time same context → VALIDATE the saved IDs against list_models, then use the survivors automatically (no asking). "No asking" applies to the selection, never to the catalog check — saved IDs go stale and must be re-checked every run.
  • User explicitly says "change models" or "different models" → ASK and UPDATE

multi-model-validation is a skill published in the GitHub repository MadAppGang/magus (13 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 21,345 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-04.
