Claude CodeCodexGemini CLIOpenCode

Council of High Intelligence is a Claude Code plugin that orchestrates structured multi-perspective deliberation for complex decisions by assigning questions to 18 distinct analytical personas. The plugin supports full councils, quick triads, or two-member debates and runs across Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and OpenCode. It uses a fixed-round protocol where personas independently analyze problems, cross-examine positions, and produce verdicts that preserve dissent, kill criteria, and concrete next steps. The tool is designed for high-stakes decisions with competing values, incomplete evidence, or irreversible consequences.

Key Features

18 grounded analytical personas including Aristotle, Feynman, Torvalds, Karpathy, and others with defined methods and blind spots
Three deliberation modes: full council with cross-examination, quick triads for focused analysis, and duo debates for binary tensions
Multi-provider routing that distributes seats across OpenAI, Google, Ollama, NVIDIA NIM, and Cursor to separate polarity pairs
Structured verdict format with unresolved questions, dissent tracking, evidence labeling (FACT/INFERENCE/ASSUMPTION/UNKNOWN), and kill criteria
Named triads for domain-specific lenses including strategy, risk, shipping, ethics, architecture, and AI-product decisions
Protocol enforcement that checks for premature agreement, repeated claims, missing dissent, and unsupported confidence
Outcome ledger system for recording predictions, review dates, and checking whether recommendations were confirmed or reversed
Cross-platform support for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and OpenCode with unified /council command

Use Cases
