# Local Council Execution When no external providers are configured, convene a council of independent Claude subagents instead. Each member answers from one role, blind to the others; you then synthesize the spread of perspectives. **Read this first — the honest framing is not optional.** Every member is Claude. They share priors and training, so *agreement between them is weak signal*, not validation. The value here is **independent angles and blind-spot coverage**, not consensus. The output you produce MUST make this explicit and MUST NOT present member agreement as if it were cross-vendor corroboration. ## Step 0: Confirm this is a local-council context (guard) A local council is the **fallback** for when no real providers exist — it is not a default way to "use the council". Only proceed if one of these holds: 1. The user explicitly passed `--local`, or 2. There are no configured providers and the user accepted the local-council offer. If you reached this skill any other way, verify providers are actually absent before spawning anything: ```bash bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/query-council.sh --list-default 2>&1 | head -1 ``` If that lists one or more providers and the user did **not** ask for `--local`, **STOP** — do not spawn local members. Run the standard cross-vendor flow (`council-execution`) so the real providers answer, since same-model role-play is strictly weaker than the cross-vendor council the user can actually get. ## Step 1: Resolve the role...
