What it does

Council is an agent skill from affaan-m/ECC. 召集四方会议处理模糊决策、权衡取舍及继续/停止决策。当存在多个有效路径且需要在选择前进行结构化异议时使用。

Its SKILL.md is about 650 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: The agent harness performance optimization system. Skills, instincts, memory, security, and research-first development for Claude Code, Codex, Opencode, Cursor and beyond. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/council”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. 提取真实问题
  2. 仅收集必要上下文
  3. 首先形成架构师立场
  4. 并行启动三个独立声音
  5. 通过偏见护栏进行综合
  6. 呈现简洁裁决

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4eb71d9. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Council loads about 653 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 15 tokens; SKILL.md has 144 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~15
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~653

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

顾问团

在模糊决策时召集四位顾问:

  • 上下文中的Claude声音
  • 怀疑论者子代理
  • 实用主义者子代理
  • 批评者子代理

这适用于模糊性下的决策制定,而非代码审查、实施规划或架构设计。

何时使用

在以下情况使用顾问团:

  • 决策存在多个可行路径且无明显优胜者
  • 需要明确权衡利弊
  • 用户要求第二意见、异议或多角度分析
  • 存在对话锚定效应的真实风险
  • 通过对抗性挑战能优化"执行/放弃"决策

示例:

  • 单一仓库 vs 多仓库
  • 立即发布 vs 打磨后发布
  • 功能开关 vs 全面上线
  • 简化范围 vs 保持战略广度

何时不使用

不应使用顾问团的情况应使用
验证输出是否正确santa-method
将功能拆解为实施步骤planner
设计系统架构architect
审查代码中的错误或安全漏洞code-reviewer 或 santa-method
直接的事实性问题直接回答
明确的执行任务直接执行

角色

声音视角
架构师正确性、可维护性、长期影响
怀疑论者质疑前提、简化、打破假设
实用主义者交付速度、用户影响、运营现实
批评者边缘情况、下行风险、失败模式

三个外部声音应作为全新子代理启动,仅提供问题和相关上下文,而非完整对话历史。这是反锚定机制。

工作流程

1. 提取真实问题

将决策简化为一个明确提示:

  • 我们在决定什么?
  • 哪些约束条件重要?
  • 什么算成功?

如果问题模糊,在召集顾问团前先提出一个澄清性问题。

2. 仅收集必要上下文

如果决策与代码库相关:

  • 收集相关文件、代码片段、问题描述或指标
  • 保持简洁
  • 仅包含决策所需的上下文

如果决策是战略/通用性的:

  • 除非能实质性改变答案,否则跳过仓库代码片段
3. 首先形成架构师立场

在阅读其他声音之前,写下:

  • 你的初始立场
  • 支持该立场的三个最强理由
  • 首选路径的主要风险

先完成此步骤,以确保综合意见不会简单镜像外部声音。

4. 并行启动三个独立声音

每个子代理获得:

  • 决策问题
  • 必要的简洁上下文
  • 严格角色定义
  • 无多余对话历史

提示模板:

text
你是四声部决策委员会中的[角色]。

问题:
[决策问题]

背景:
[仅包含相关片段或约束条件]

回复格式:
1. 立场 — 1-2句话
2. 理由 — 3个简洁要点
3. 风险 — 你建议中最大的风险
4. 意外点 — 其他声部可能忽略的一个方面

直接明了,不要含糊。控制在300字以内。

角色重点:

  • 怀疑论者:挑战框架、质疑假设、提出最简单的可信替代方案
  • 实用主义者:优化速度、简单性和实际执行
  • 批评者:揭示下行风险、边缘情况以及计划可能失败的原因
5. 通过偏见护栏进行综合

你既是参与者也是综合者,因此需遵循以下规则:

  • 不得无故驳回外部观点,需说明理由
  • 若外部声音改变了你的建议,需明确说明
  • 始终包含最强烈的异议,即使你最终拒绝它
  • 若两个声音一致反对你的初始立场,将其视为真实信号
  • 在最终裁决前保持原始立场可见
6. 呈现简洁裁决

使用以下输出格式:

markdown
## 委员会:[简短决策标题]

**架构师:** [1-2句立场陈述]
[1行理由说明]

**怀疑论者:** [1-2句立场陈述]
[1行理由说明]

**实用主义者:** [1-2句立场陈述]
[1行理由说明]

**批评者:** [1-2句立场陈述]
[1行理由说明]

### 裁决
- **共识点:** [各方达成一致之处]
- **最大分歧:** [最重要的争议点]
- **前提检验:** [怀疑论者是否质疑了问题本身?]
- **建议方案:** [综合后的行动路径]

确保在手机屏幕上可快速浏览。

持久化规则

不要从此技能向 ~/.claude/notes 或其他隐藏路径写入临时笔记。

若顾问团实质性改变了建议:

  • 使用 knowledge-ops 将经验教训存储在正确的持久化位置
  • 或使用 /save-session(若结果属于会话记忆)
  • 或直接更新相关的GitHub/Linear问题(若决策改变了当前执行事实)

仅在决策改变实际内容时进行持久化。

多轮跟进

默认为一轮。

若用户要求另一轮:

  • 保持新问题聚焦
  • 仅在必要时包含上一轮裁决
  • 尽可能保持怀疑论者的"干净"状态以保留反锚定价值

反模式

  • 将顾问团用于代码审查
  • 在任务仅为实施工作时使用顾问团
  • 向子代理提供完整对话记录
  • 在最终裁决中隐藏分歧
  • 无论重要性如何都持久化每个决策

相关技能

  • santa-method — 对抗性验证
  • knowledge-ops — 正确持久化重要决策变更
  • search-first — 在顾问团前收集外部参考资料(如需要)
  • architecture-decision-records — 当决策成为长期系统策略时正式化结果

示例

问题:

text
我们现在应该以 alpha 版本发布 ECC 2.0,还是等到控制平面 UI 更完善后再发布?

可能的顾问团形态:

  • 架构师推动结构完整性并避免混乱的界面
  • 怀疑论者质疑UI是否真的是瓶颈因素
  • 实用主义者询问在不损害信任的前提下现在可以交付什么
  • 批评者关注支持负担、期望债务和上线混乱

价值不在于达成一致。价值在于在选择前让分歧清晰可见。

How do I install Council in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add affaan-m/ECC --skill council -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (docs/zh-CN/skills/council in affaan-m/ECC) into .claude/skills/council in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Council in Codex?

Run `npx skills add affaan-m/ECC --skill council -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (docs/zh-CN/skills/council in affaan-m/ECC) into .agents/skills/council in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Council in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add affaan-m/ECC --skill council -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/council, .gemini/skills/council, .github/skills/council and .opencode/skills/council in your project.

What does Council need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Council is instructions for the agent only.

Does Council access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Council safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Council use?

Council is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Council use?

About 653 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Council?
