Advisor Skills for Claude Code

Empower Claude with a "Council of Experts" for better decision-making.

Introduction

This plugin extends Claude Code's capabilities by giving it the ability to consult specialized external models and agents. Just as senior engineers seek second opinions or research documentation when stuck, this toolset allows Claude to:

1. Break Tunnel Vision: Use the Strategist agent to get an unbiased, high-level perspective on architectural decisions. By delegating complex reasoning to this specialized sub-agent (using the Opus model), you save costs by reserving high-intelligence processing only for critical strategic decisions while keeping your main session efficient.
2. Verify & Research: Use Gemini to fetch real-time documentation and libraries, preventing hallucinations about outdated APIs.
3. Deepen Reasoning: Use Codex to handle complex algorithmic logic and multi-step reasoning tasks that require a dedicated focus.

Instead of relying on a single model's training data, this workflow enables a collaborative AI approach to problem-solving.

Skills

Consult

Seek second opinions from specialized AI models and agents

The Consult skill enables Claude to seek advice from various sources:

• Strategist Agent - Unbiased, objective advice on complex strategic decisions and architectural trade-offs.
• Codex - Deep reasoning for complex logical problems and multi-faceted analysis.
• Gemini - Online research for current information, documentation, and real-world examples.

Use when stuck on difficult problems, validating approaches, or needing fresh perspectives.

Installation:

/skill install consult

Strategist Cooperation

Guidelines for effective collaboration with the Strategist agent

Provides patterns and best practices for working with the Strategist, including session continuity, preparing context, and handling advice.

Installation:

/skill install strategist-cooperation

Agents

Strategist

Unbiased, objective advice on complex strategic decisions

A specialized agent that provides an outsider's perspective on difficult problems without being influenced by existing code, implementation details, or project constraints.

Key capabilities:

• Radical objectivity - evaluates everything purely on merit
• Fresh perspective - unencumbered by technical debt or sunk costs
• Strategic thinking - focuses on fundamental principles
• Devil's advocate - challenges assumptions and explores alternatives

Use when:

• Stuck on architectural decisions and going in circles
• Team debates with strong conflicting opinions
• Need to cut through bias and see the situation with fresh eyes
• Evaluating major refactoring or rewrite decisions

The agent applies first principles thinking, identifies hidden assumptions, and provides decision frameworks rather than prescriptive solutions.
