deliberate

deliberate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Nafjan/summon. It costs 36 tokens per session (421 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A controlled process for making a decision from fixed options with named participants, voting rules, time limits, and a saved record.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for bounded approvals or choices that need a required quorum, human approval or cancellation, and a durable record of what happened.
Why use it?
It prevents unclear authority, unlimited retries, missed deadlines, and decisions that cannot be reviewed later.

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

deliberate 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.

What it actually says

Deliberate — governed decisions for Summon

/deliberate is the focused companion entry point for Summon's governed-decision workflow. It owns no scheduler, scripts, schemas, or duplicate policy. Read the canonical guide at ../summon/references/deliberation.md before constructing, inspecting, recovering, or resuming a run.

Use /deliberate when a decision has explicit options and named seats and must be bounded by quorum, physical attempts, an absolute deadline, and a durable journal. Use /summon for ordinary dispatch, manifest/fan-out, and council work. Council remains the right choice for cross-examination and a chairman's synthesis.

Before invoking it, obtain—not infer—the question, 2–10 seat IDs, at least two option IDs, quorum, rounds, maximum physical attempts, deadline, human-approval policy, private durable run directory, and each seat's authority/consent/worktree evidence. If any of those facts are missing, ask the user or choose another mode.

The CLI is the same dispatcher:

../summon/scripts/run_subagent.py deliberate --question "…" --seats A,B \
  --options X,Y --quorum all --rounds 1 --max-attempts 4 --deadline 30m \
  --run-dir <private-runs-root> --cwd <project>

The current fresh/resume provider path is integration_pending; it never silently falls back to another mode. status, replay, recover, cancel, and open are provider-inert. An unmatched physical start is uncertain_spend; do not retry it unless the user explicitly supplies --retry-indeterminate.

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.
