# groupwork
A second agent on the work. The patterns are the product; the CLI underneath is
swappable.
The reason this is not a wrapper around `codex exec` is the **withholding
rule**. A second opinion that has already been told your conclusion is not a
second opinion, it is agreement with extra steps. So every pattern refuses to
carry your view at all, and the refusal is enforced in code.
## Pick the pattern first
| Pattern | Use it when | It is not told |
|---|---|---|
| `red-team` | You want the idea killed if it deserves killing | Your evidence, and by default the repository itself |
| `second-opinion` | You have a view and want one reached without it | Your conclusion, draft or findings |
| `verify` | Work is finished and about to ship | Whether anyone thinks it passes |
| `panel` | A hard call where the trade-off is the answer | Your view, and each other's answers |
Two that look alike and are not: `red-team` is handed a claim and told to break
it, deliberately starved of the material so its attack cannot inherit your blind
spots. `second-opinion` is handed the material and asked to reach its own
judgement. Use `red-team` on an idea, `second-opinion` on a document.
For thinking out loud with a peer who sees your view, use a persistent advisor
session instead. Every pattern here withholds your view, because that is what
makes its answer worth citing.
Do not burn a run on something cheap. Naming, style, "what does this code do" -
read it yourself. These calls are s
