Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00027 | $0.06080 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00014 | $0.03040 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.01216 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00608 |
Grade A, and why
deep-ai-council 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 yesterday.
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 — 492 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AI Council
Planning-only council deliberation with diverse seats, convergence checks, and packet-local ai-council/** artifact persistence.
Convergence threshold semantics: see
references/convergence/convergence-signals.md. Deep Mode (iterative multi-topic): seereferences/convergence/depth-dispatch.md.
1. OPERATIONAL MODES — IN-CLI (PRIMARY) + EXTERNAL-CLI (SECONDARY)
The council is primarily an IN-CLI capability. When invoked from inside an active runtime (OpenCode, Claude Code, OpenCode), the council deliberates using THAT runtime's own models and reasoning lenses as seats. No external dispatch is required for the common case — the active CLI's own model bench (e.g. Opus + Sonnet + Haiku on Claude Code; gpt-5.5 + gpt-5.5-pro + gpt-5.5-xhigh on OpenCode; direct DeepSeek, Xiaomi, and OpenAI provider models on OpenCode) supplies the seat diversity for a round.
External-CLI dispatch is a SECONDARY, optional mode for cases where a different AI vantage adds value (e.g. DeepSeek/Kimi via cli-opencode from inside another runtime). The council resolver accepts native, cli-opencode, cli-cursor, cli-devin, cli-pi, and the opencode alias; it rejects cli-codex and cli-claude-code. External dispatch is invoked via the supported cli-* skill family, never directly from this skill.
Both modes obey the one-CLI-per-round invariant (§5 ALWAYS rule 6):
- In-CLI round: all seats use the current runtime's models.
- External-CLI round: all seats use ONE supported external CLI (e.g. all
cli-opencodeseats with different reasoning levels, or allcli-cursor,cli-devin, orcli-piseats with different models). - Cross-CLI deliberation is staged as MULTIPLE rounds (one in-CLI + one external, or two different externals) — never folded into the same round.

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.

deep-ai-council is a skill published in the GitHub repository MichelKerkmeester/skilled-agent-harness_spec-driven-loops (35 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 6,080 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
