council-brief
Unified LLM Council skill — install, query, and manage the multi-model consensus app. Get synthesized answers from multiple LLMs via quick CLI or full web UI. One skill does it all.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/jeadland/council-briefCouncil Brief v2.0.0 (Unified)
One skill to rule them all — install, query, and manage LLM Council.
LLM Council is a multi-model consensus app: ask one question to many models, let them critique each other, get a synthesized chairman answer.
v2.0.0 Upgrade: Now unified! Previously separate
install-llm-councilandask-councilskills are merged here. One command handles everything.
Usage
| Command | Action |
|---|---|
/council-brief install | Install deps and start backend + frontend |

/council-brief <question> | Shorthand — just ask directly |
/council-brief status | Check if services are running |

Examples
Install and run:
/council-brief install
Quick question (no browser needed):
/council-brief ask "Should I invest in Tesla right now?"
/council-brief "Is Python or Go better for microservices?"
/council-brief What are the tradeoffs of Rust vs Zig?
Check status:
/council-brief status
Stop services:

Two Ways to Use
| Mode | Best For | Command |
|---|---|---|
| Quick answer | Fast decisions, mobile, casual questions | /council-brief "question" |
| Full discussion | Deep research, exploring disagreements, seeing all model responses | /council-brief install then open browser at :5173 |
How Ask Mode Works
- Sends your question to the LLM Council backend
- Waits for Stage 1 (all models respond)
- Waits for Stage 2 (models rank each other)
- Returns Stage 3 (Chairman's final synthesis)
- Takes 30-60 seconds — models need time to deliberate
How Install Mode Works
- Resolves credentials (env → workspace
.env→ OpenClaw gateway) - Clones/updates
