The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 128 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 1

    Distinctive

    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:

    Vote: Run the swarm steps Brief, Launch and Collect.

    line 17
  2. Very specific:

    Verify: When the winning reason rests on a number or a root cause, run falsify-first on it with an agent that did not vote.

    line 25
  3. Distinctive:

    When the options turn out wrong, change the question and vote again with fresh agents.

    line 31

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 128 edited versions of this file we could read. “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.

Council

Decide one closed question by independent votes. This skill uses the swarm steps; read that skill first.

The script is ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../swarm/scripts/swarm.py, in the swarm skill folder beside this one. DIR is a new folder per council in the session scratchpad.

Steps

  1. Ask one question. Write the decision, 2 to 4 option labels and the facts with sources, as the question guide says. For an open question, run swarm on the goal with the lenses feasibility, spec and simplicity, and take its numbered decisions as the 2 to 4 labels. A closed question with no labels: ask the user for them.
  2. Pick voters. Choose 3 stances from stances, one voter each. Choose 5 when the decision is hard to undo.
  3. Vote. Run the swarm steps Brief, Launch and Collect; the tally replaces the swarm Check. Each brief carries the question, the exact labels and the stance as its lens. No voter sees another vote. Rerun once each voter that is not run.

  4. Tally. Run:

    python3 -B ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../swarm/scripts/swarm.py tally --voters user,safety,skeptic --options per-event,shards --dir DIR

    Replace the voters, options and folder with yours. Exit 0 prints the decision and each dissenting vote with its reason. Exit 2 means no option has a majority of all voters; the user decides.

  5. Verify. When the winning reason rests on a number or a root cause, run falsify-first on it with an agent that did not vote.
  6. Report. Give the vote table, the decision, the strongest dissent, each voter that is not run, and how the decision can fail. State that each voter voted blind, without seeing another vote.

Rules

  • A vote that is not run or names an unknown label counts against every option; the script takes 3 or 5 voters and refuses any other count or a repeated label.
  • When the options turn out wrong, change the question and vote again with fresh agents.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
