What it does

Boardroom is an agent skill from alirezarezvani/claude-skills. /cs:boardroom <brief — 6-phase multi-role deliberation across the C-suite with Phase 2 isolation, critic pre-screen, and synthesis. Outputs a board memo. Use when a decision spans multiple executive domains — e.g. a pricing change touching finance, positioning, and product, or a raise-vs-cut runway call.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Positioning and messaging. The repository describes itself as: 380 Claude Code skills & agent skills & plugins (30+ Agents, 70+ custom commands, 380+ skills, customizable references, scripts)for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, and 8… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • A decision spans multiple executive domains — e.g
  • Tasks that involve Positioning and messaging

Example prompts

  • “/boardroom”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Briefing
  2. Independent Thinking (ISOLATION)
  3. Cross-Examination
  4. Devil's Advocate Pass
  5. Synthesis
  6. Decision Hand-off

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 19392f7. 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

Boardroom loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 79 tokens; SKILL.md has 363 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~79
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

description
/cs:boardroom <brief> — 6-phase multi-role deliberation across the C-suite with Phase 2 isolation, critic pre-screen, and synthesis. Outputs a board memo. Use when a decision spans multiple executive domains — e.g. a pricing change touching finance, positioning, and product, or a raise-vs-cut runway call.

/cs:boardroom — Multi-Role Boardroom Deliberation

Command: /cs:boardroom <brief-path>

Runs the board-meeting skill protocol across the C-suite for a single strategy brief. This is the heart of the plugin — the multi-role deliberation that gstack's review chain only approximates.

Pipeline Position

/cs:office-hours  →  /cs:brief  →  /cs:boardroom  →  /cs:decide  →  /cs:execute  →  /cs:post-mortem
                                     ↑ you are here

The 6 Phases (from board-meeting skill)

Phase 1 — Briefing
  • Chief of Staff distributes the brief to all advisors marked in Affected Roles.
  • Each advisor reads company-context.md + the brief.
  • No discussion yet.
Phase 2 — Independent Thinking (ISOLATION)
  • Critical: each advisor produces their position independently, without seeing others' positions.
  • This prevents groupthink and surfaces dissent.
  • Each writes: their voice's opening, recommendation, top 3 concerns, top 3 supports.
Phase 3 — Cross-Examination
  • Positions revealed simultaneously.
  • Each advisor critiques the others' positions on the dimensions they own:
    • cs-cfo-advisor critiques the math
    • cs-ciso-advisor critiques the risk
    • cs-cpo-advisor critiques the JTBD
    • cs-cmo-advisor critiques the positioning
    • cs-cro-advisor critiques the revenue math
    • etc.
Phase 4 — Devil's Advocate Pass
  • executive-mentor/devils-advocate agent runs /em:challenge on the leading option.
  • Surfaces three concerns with severity ratings.
Phase 5 — Synthesis
  • Chief of Staff synthesizes: which option commands majority, what are unresolved dissents.
  • Produces the board memo with recommendation + dissent.
Phase 6 — Decision Hand-off
  • Memo is presented to the founder.
  • Founder accepts, modifies, or rejects.
  • Approved memo routes to /cs:decide for logging.

Output: Board Memo

Why Phase 2 Isolation Matters

If advisors see each other's positions before forming their own, they anchor. Phase 2 isolation is the single highest-leverage practice in the board-meeting protocol — it surfaces the dissents that sycophancy would have suppressed.

Why This Beats gstack's Review Chain

Adversarial passNoPhase 4 devil's advocate
OutputReviewed planVoted memo with dissent + kill criteria

Workflow

  1. Read brief from ~/.claude/briefs/<file>
  2. Identify affected roles
  3. Invoke each cs-* advisor independently (Phase 2)
  4. Collect positions
  5. Run cross-examination round (Phase 3)
  6. Run /em:challenge on leading option (Phase 4)
  7. Synthesize memo (Phase 5)
  8. Hand off to founder (Phase 6)

Routing

  • /cs:decide — log approved memo
  • /cs:cross-eval — high-stakes second opinion
  • /cs:freeze — cooldown lock
