multi-mind

multi-mind is a skill for Claude Code from tokenbender/agent-guides. It costs 28 tokens per session (1,105 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A collaborative analysis workflow that asks several specialist subagents to examine a topic, share findings, and produce a combined conclusion.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running parallel specialist analyses, exchanging findings across multiple rounds, and combining the results for architecture or other judgment-based questions.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of relying on one viewpoint when a question needs several kinds of expertise or competing judgments.

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

multi-mind 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 1mo 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.

Multi-Mind - Subagent-Based Collaborative Analysis

Execute a multi-specialist collaborative analysis on: $ARGUMENTS

Parse an optional rounds=N parameter (default 3).

How this maps to Claude Code's agent system

  • Launch each specialist as a parallel subagent via the Task tool — they run concurrently, each in its own context window, and return only their analysis.
  • For one-off runs, inline subagent prompts (below) are enough. For topics you revisit, make the specialists persistent by writing definitions to .claude/agents/<role>.md (see the Subagents Guide) — Claude will then route to them by description automatically.
  • Subagents run in the background by default; launch all specialists for a round in a single message so they execute in parallel.
  • If the question needs codebase-wide changes (not just analysis), the bundled /batch skill is a better fit. For long-running collaborative sessions, see agent teams in the Claude Code docs.

When to use this vs. /deep-research: the bundled /deep-research workflow fans out web searches and synthesizes a cited report — use it for factual questions. Use multi-mind for judgment questions (architecture tradeoffs, strategy, design decisions) where decorrelated expert perspectives and adversarial cross-pollination matter more than citation coverage.

Phase 1: Specialist Assignment & Research

Analyze the topic and determine 4-6 specialist roles with maximally decorrelated perspectives. Then launch them all in parallel, e.g.:

Task tool, subagent_type: general-purpose — run all in one block:

1. "You are a technical specialist. Research [topic] focusing on implementation
   details, architecture, performance, and technical risk. Use web search for
   current documentation and case studies. Return ≤500 words of findings."

2. "You are a business strategy specialist. Analyze [topic] from market dynamics,
   competitive landscape, ROI, and strategic positioning. Use web search for
   current market reports. Return ≤500 words."

3. "You are a user experience / adoption specialist. Investigate [topic] for
   user needs, usability concerns, and adoption barriers. Return ≤500 words."

[... additional specialists as the topic demands — security, regulatory,
 ethics, operations, contrarian/red-team ...]

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.
