The routing law for handing off between Claude (primary driver), Codex/GPT-5.5 (adversarial review, second opinions), and Gemini (long-context, repo-wide synthesis). Codifies when each model is the right tool and enforces the no-self-review rule. Trigger when the user says "three brain", "route this", "which model should", "delegate to codex / gemini", or when a substantial Claude output needs an independent check.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈0

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 2

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    If the user says "check your work" / "review this" / "is this right" / "second opinion" / "sanity check," route to Codex via …

    line 22
  2. Very specific:

    Startup self-check (once per session): Verify the tools exist: codex --version and gemini --version.

    line 37

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

route-three-brain

Family: routing Status: Stable

Purpose

The decision layer for cross-model routing. Three models, three roles:

  • Claude — primary driver for code, content, design generation, conversation.
  • Codex / GPT-5.5 — adversarial review, second-opinion debugging, deep correctness/security checking.
  • Gemini — large-context whole-repo analysis, multi-document synthesis, big structured-data passes.

Hard rule: Claude never reviews Claude — same architecture, same blind spots. If the user says "check your work" / "review this" / "is this right" / "second opinion" / "sanity check," route to Codex via route-codex-review.

Triggers

  • "three brain" / "tri-brain" / "route this" / "which model"
  • "delegate to codex" / "delegate to gemini" / "best model for X"

Inputs

  • Task description; the current output (if asking for review/handoff)
  • Constraints (cost, time, privacy)

Steps

  1. Startup self-check (once per session). Verify the tools exist: codex --version and gemini --version. If one is missing, announce it once and route only to what's available.
  2. Classify the task:
    • Build/generate/converse → Claude keeps it.
    • Review / verify / debug a substantial output, or any risk-path edit (auth, billing, migrations, deploy, secrets) → Codex via route-codex-review.
    • Needs more context than one window (whole repo, many docs) → Gemini via route-gemini-context.
  3. Announce forced routes in one line before running (so the user can interrupt): [three-brain] routing to Codex (review) — risk path: src/auth/.
  4. Execute the handoff via the execution skills and integrate the result — diff where models agree/disagree and adjudicate by evidence, not by averaging.

Outputs

  • A routing decision with justification
  • The integrated result of any executed handoff

Dependencies

  • route-codex-review (Codex execution), route-gemini-context (Gemini execution)
  • The codex and gemini CLIs installed (or the adjacent openai-codex / cc-gemini-plugin tools); degrades to a recommendation when neither is present

Notes

The law layer; the two route-* skills are the execution layers. Under-firing is fine; over-firing breaks trust. When uncertain, recommend rather than auto-route.
