# Council - Independent Second Opinions (Kimi k3 by default; Gemini + Grok opt-in) Independent second opinions dispatched in parallel. Use when: - The user wants fresh views on a hard call (independent mode) - The user wants a draft stress-tested before it ships (critique mode) This skill is distinct from `/deep-think` (Claude reasoning harder, alone) and `/odin` (Claude + the curated knowledge brain). The unique value is a model with a different training pedigree, different RLHF, and different failure modes reaching the question independently. Agreement is stronger evidence, and disagreement is itself information. `--all` restores the three-model roster when breadth matters more than latency. --- ## Phase 0 - Determine mode Read the user's request. CRITIQUE mode if any of: - The user passed `--critique` - The user said "stress-test this", "critique this draft", "find flaws in", "what's wrong with this", "review this draft" - The user pasted a draft (proposal, message, claim) and asked for review INDEPENDENT mode otherwise (default). --- ## Phase 1 - Gather inputs For INDEPENDENT mode, prepare: - `question`: the user's question, cleaned and concrete - `context`: facts the user has shared in this conversation that bear on the question. Important: include the FACTS (numbers, names, dates, constraints), NOT Claude's reasoning or proposed answer. The whole point of independent mode is to give Gemini a clean slate. For CRITIQUE mode, prepare: - `draft`: the exact draft ...
